Read the first 7 Resilience Theory & Frameworks flashcards as text
  1. Which resilience framework specifically focuses on organizational continuity and integrates risk management, crisis management, and business continuity under a single umbrella?

    Answer: ISO 22316

    ISO 22316 (Organizational Resilience) provides principles and attributes for building holistic resilience across risk, crisis, and continuity functions.

  2. The concept of 'Antifragility,' introduced by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, differs from resilience in that antifragile systems:

    Answer: Actually improve and gain strength from stressors

    Antifragile systems go beyond resilience by benefiting from shocks, volatility, and disorder rather than merely withstanding them.

  3. Which element of the Disaster Resilience of Place (DROP) model represents the pre-existing conditions that affect how a community absorbs a hazard event?

    Answer: Antecedent conditions

    In the DROP model, antecedent conditions such as existing vulnerabilities and community capital shape baseline resilience before a disaster strikes.

  4. In the context of organizational resilience, 'double-loop learning' differs from single-loop learning because it:

    Answer: Questions and modifies the governing norms behind actions

    Double-loop learning, developed by Argyris and Schön, involves examining and revising the underlying assumptions and values that drive behavior.

  5. The Pressure and Release (PAR) model of disaster risk identifies 'root causes' at which stage?

    Answer: Progression of vulnerability

    In the PAR model, root causes are the first level of the progression of vulnerability, followed by dynamic pressures, then unsafe conditions.

  6. Which framework uses 'bow-tie analysis' as a central tool to visualize the relationship between threats, top events, and consequences?

    Answer: Barrier and Operational Risk Model (BORM)

    Bow-tie analysis, central to BORM and barrier-based risk management, maps threats on the left, the top event in the center, and consequences on the right.

  7. In community resilience theory, 'social capital' most directly refers to:

    Answer: Networks of relationships and trust enabling collective action

    Social capital encompasses the norms, networks, and trust that facilitate cooperation and collective resilience within and between communities.
