Resilience as a Moderator for Discrimination and Stress of AAPI Counselors in the Context of the Covid‐19 Pandemic

This study investigated the moderating role of resilience in the relationship between racial discrimination and perceived stress among Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) counselors during the Covid‐19 pandemic. Hierarchical regression analyses (N = 109) indicated that discrimination significantly predicted stress, while resilience did not exhibit a direct effect. However, resilience significantly moderated the discrimination–stress relationship. Findings underscore resilience as a protective factor and support the development of culturally responsive interventions for AAPI counselors.
