However, the understanding of the specific transformations in the appraisals that lead to this development is still incipient. This paper investigates a teacher’s spontaneous process of reappraisal –i.e. modification of appraisals-, occurring over a period of approximately two years, and identifies two narrative mechanisms of reappraisal connected to her improvement in teacher depersonalization. The understanding of these two mechanisms, called “elaboration of antecedents” and “identification,” enriches the existing research on reappraisal and has important implications for fostering the development of teacher resilience.9 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Clarà, Marc et al., 2025http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Psicologia cognitivaPersonal docentResiliència (Tret de la personalitat)Cognitive psychologyTeaching staffResilience (Personality trait)info:eu-repo/semantics/article7603872026-01-16info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
