The minor allele of the serotonin transporter gene variant rs4251417 is associated with increased resilience in soldiers experiencing acute stress during survival training: preliminary findings.

Individuals with the minor allele of SNP rs4251417 had a greater positive change in CD-RISC, indicating increased self-assessed resilience. This study suggests the minor allele of SNP rs4251417 of SLC6A4 is associated with resilience when individuals are exposed to high stress.
