Results (1) Higher family income and parental literacy implied higher levels of academic buoyancy in children; (2) mental health problems and academic buoyancy were negatively related, and generalized anxiety and uncertainty stress negatively predicted academic buoyancy levels; (3) uncertainty stress may have an indirect effect on academic buoyancy levels through a partially mediating effect of generalized anxiety.
