The influence of social change on the psychosocial wellbeing of individuals has been a major issue in psychological research, although under very heterogeneous methodological approaches and ideologies. In spite of this heterogeneity, in the last years, many authors have opened new perspectives in this field. The theories of Bandura, Rotter and Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems, amongst others, appear to be key concepts in the understanding of the relationship of the sociocultural dynamics generated by the crisis and individual wellbeing. From the idiographic point of view, the change in social identities and narratives could provide clues about how people adapt to social changes. As a synthesis, and because this phenomenon should be studied under an international and cross-cultural scope, we consider a mixed methods approach optimal as it is well suited at both the locally specific and the international levels.
