Explanation:

• Bonds to caring adults outside the family: These relationships provide additional support, guidance, and a sense of belonging, which can enhance resilience.
• Good intellectual functioning: Higher cognitive abilities allow individuals to better problem - solve, adapt to challenges, and make positive choices, thus increasing resilience.
• Close relationship with a caring parent: A supportive and nurturing parental relationship is a key protective factor, offering emotional security and resources that boost resilience.
• Being female: While gender differences in resilience can be complex and context - dependent, research has shown that in many cases, females may have certain social - emotional or coping - related tendencies (though this is not as strongly and universally a resilience - boosting factor as the others, but still is considered in some resilience research). However, the first three options are more strongly associated with increasing resilience based on developmental and psychological research. But according to the question's requirement to select all that apply, and based on resilience research: bonds to caring adults outside the family, good intellectual functioning, close relationship with a caring parent, and being female (to a certain extent in some studies) are considered. But more accurately, the well - established factors are bonds to caring adults outside the family, good intellectual functioning, and close relationship with a caring parent. Being female is a more nuanced and less universally accepted as a direct resilience - increasing factor compared to the others, but in the context of this question, we will consider the options that are generally associated.

Answer:

A. bonds to caring adults outside the family
B. good intellectual functioning
C. being female
D. close relationship with a caring parent

(Note: The inclusion of "being female" can be debated as its association with resilience is more complex and varies by context, but based on the options provided and some research perspectives, it is included here. The other three options are more strongly and consistently associated with increased resilience in developmental psychology research.)
