abstract="In the recent past, the extreme climatic events and disasters driven by natural hazards underlined the importance of building resilience against such events. However, the research of resilience in the context of natural hazards and extreme climatic events is dominated by the physical and natural sciences. Limited tools and strategies are available when it comes to assessing the level of resilience against disaster at the family level in the developing countries like Pakistani. Although families are the basic unit of any society and community, resilience assessment at the family level in the context of disasters, and consideration of the vital constructs and themes for family resilience assessment against disaster are not well-established. In this regard, this study attempts to identify the constructs and themes that should be considered, while designing a tool for family resilience assessment. A qualitative study based on ten in-depth interviews was conducted in the Nowshehra district of Pakistan. The data collected was analysed using NVivo 12. The data analysis at first instance resulted in 63 Codes. This number does not include the overlapping. Followed by further analysis, the resulted codes were checked for overlapping, and the similar codes were integrated into a similar class. The process continued until all similar codes were combined. The study finally concluded four themes, five categories and fifteen subcategories, which need to be taken into account to design a family resilience assessment scale for flood-prone areas.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
