- Abstract
Incarceration is an experience that is torturous, severe, full of suffering, frightening, worrying and full of pressure for both the prisoner and the whole family. Good adaptability is needed to face the dynamic changes that are stressful and challenging so that they can recover quickly and can maintain their integrity and function as a family which is commonly referred to as family resilience. This research is a qualitative research which aimed to examine family resilience based on the phenomenological perspective of prisoners assisted by Kedungpane prison Semarang. The study involved 6 respondents from various backgrounds of crime cases with various length of incarceration. Data were collected using in-depth interviews with participants and analyzed using Data Explication method. The results show various resilience observed in the prisoners’ families. There were two subjects who experienced major shocks in their domestic life and ended in divorce. Another subject, despite experiencing shocks, was still able to maintain and build up his family’s resilience quite well. Strong family belief system in commitment, family patterns, communication, social support, positive perspective on reality, optimism, transcendence, spirituality and religiosity has a considerable effect on the strength of family resilience.
