Section 1: Resilience Foundations & Positive Psychology (Questions 1–12)
Q1: Which of the following is the most accurate definition of resilience as taught in MRT Level 1?
A. The absence of negative emotions or stress reactions to adversity.
B. Bouncing back, growing from challenges, and maintaining mission focus under stress. [CORRECT]
C. Naturally being optimistic regardless of circumstances.
D. Avoiding difficult situations to prevent emotional distress.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: MRT defines resilience as the ability to bounce back from adversity, grow from challenges,
and maintain functional performance under stress. Option A is incorrect because resilience allows
negative emotions but does not eliminate them. Option C describes dispositional optimism, not the skill-
based resilience taught in MRT. Option D describes avoidance, which MRT trains against.
Q2: According to the PERMA model, which element refers to "flow"—losing track of time in a
challenging, meaningful activity?
A. Positive Emotion.
B. Relationships.
C. Engagement. [CORRECT]
D. Accomplishment.
,Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Engagement is characterized by the psychological state of "flow," where an individual is fully
absorbed in an activity, often losing track of time. Positive Emotion (A) refers to feelings like joy or
gratitude. Relationships (B) refer to social connections. Accomplishment (D) refers to the pursuit of
success and achievement.
Q3: Select All That Apply (SATA) Which of the following are components of the PERMA model of well-
being? (Select all that apply)
A. Positive Emotion. [CORRECT]
B. Physical Fitness.
C. Meaning. [CORRECT]
D. Accomplishment. [CORRECT]
E. Financial Security.
Correct Answer: A, C, D
Rationale: PERMA includes Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and
Accomplishment. Option B (Physical Fitness) is part of energy management but not a specific
component of PERMA. Option E (Financial Security) is not part of the model.
Q4: In the context of MRT, "neuroplasticity" refers to:
A. The brain's ability to heal from physical trauma only.
B. The brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. [CORRECT]
C. The hardwiring of personality traits that cannot be changed after age 25.
D. The decline in cognitive function due to chronic stress.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Neuroplasticity is the brain's capacity to change and adapt in response to experience and
learning. This concept underpins the MRT philosophy that resilience skills can be learned and
strengthened, effectively "rewiring" the brain's response to stress.
,Q5: A soldier says, "I'm just not a resilient person; you either have it or you don't." Which resilience
myth does this represent?
A. Resilience is the absence of distress.
B. Resilience is a trait you are born with. [CORRECT]
C. Resilience means "toughing it out" alone.
D. Resilience prevents bad things from happening.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A core tenet of MRT is that resilience is not a fixed trait but a set of skills that can be learned
and developed. The belief that one is born with or without it is a myth that inhibits growth.
Q6: Strengths Identification Exercise A soldier is known for organizing team workouts, mediating
disputes between squad members, and ensuring everyone feels included in social activities. Which three
VIA character strengths are most prominent?
A. Judgment, Honesty, Prudence.
B. Teamwork, Fairness, Leadership. [CORRECT]
C. Creativity, Curiosity, Love of Learning.
D. Forgiveness, Humility, Modesty.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Organizing activities demonstrates Teamwork. Mediating disputes requires Fairness. Ensuring
inclusion and guiding the group reflects Leadership. These strengths fall under the virtue of Justice.
Q7: Which element of PERMA involves belonging to and serving something that you believe is bigger
than the self?
A. Engagement.
B. Meaning. [CORRECT]
, C. Positive Emotion.
D. Relationships.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Meaning is defined as belonging to and serving something that you believe is bigger than
yourself (e.g., family, community, faith, duty).
Q8: A soldier consistently stays late to ensure the vehicle maintenance logs are perfect, often skipping
dinner and sleep. While dedicated, this behavior eventually leads to burnout. In terms of character
strengths, this is an example of:
A. Underuse of Strength.
B. Overuse of Strength. [CORRECT]
C. Signature Strengths identification.
D. Learned Helplessness.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Strengths can be overused. In this case, Perseverance or Self-Regulation is being applied so
intensely that it negatively impacts well-being (skipping meals/sleep), turning a strength into a liability.
MRT teaches soldiers to find the "golden mean" of strength usage.
Q9: The "Broaden-and-Build" theory suggests that positive emotions:
A. Narrow our focus to survival instincts.
B. Broaden our awareness and build lasting resources. [CORRECT]
C. Are fleeting and have no long-term impact.
D. Should be suppressed to maintain tactical awareness.
Correct Answer: B
