The purpose of this study is to examine the resilience of high school students in Turkey, and to determine the relationships between the student resiliency and some protective factors such as school climate, teacher atti- tudes and behaviors, family and peer support according to the student opinions. By using 509 students randomly selected from 24 general and Anatolian high schools from central districts of Ankara, it was found that students' perception of sociability and communication skill and determination were higher than the self-efficacy, hope and problem solving skills which were important components of resiliency. There were significant correlations be- tween students' resiliency perceptions and gender, grade level, fathers' educational level, family income, grade point avarege and absenteeism of those students. Grade point avarege and absenteeism were found to be the most important demographic variables that predict student resiliency. Additionally results indic...

Resilience refers to an individual’s ability to thrive despite adversity. The current study examined the psychometric properties of the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) in the Indian context. The sample comprised of 256 students (age M =22.75, SD = 1.36 years) who completed questionnaire measures of trait resilience (CD-RISC), Big Five Inventory (BFI), Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) and life satisfaction (Satisfaction with Life Scale). Original five factor solution did not get confirmation and further a four factor solution, through exploratory factor analysis, was selected as being the most suitable, namely, hardiness, optimism, resourcefulness and purpose. The CD-RISC appeared to be a reliable (á = 0.89) and valid measure. The concurrent validity results supported hypotheses regarding the relationship of resilience to personality dimensions and life satisfaction and positive and negative affects. Resilience was negatively associated with neuroticism, negative affects and positively related to all other variables of the study

This article aims to describe the academic resilience of secondary seminary students. Data were obtained from Garum Middle Seminary High School students, Blitar (East Java), Indonesia, in the 2019 academic year. Evidence for validity and reliability of the measurement was provided through confirmatory factor analysis. Previous research has used expert judges [1] to identify 100 items measuring academic resilience, encompassing four subscales (determination, endurance, adaptability, and recuperability). The current research used 28 of those items with the highest level of validity to create a 16-item measure of academic resilience.

Resilience is a term used to describe a set of qualities that foster a process of successful adaptation and transformation despite risk and adversity (Benard, 1995). Among the underprivileged youth only a few bright students are lucky enough to graduate from school and even college. But these students face lot of challenges in adapting themselves in higher education campus. Higher education institutions must play a critical role in fostering resilience for underprivileged youth students. The admission of disadvantaged groups to educational and training programmes is part of the wider concern of promoting their resilience building. There are various factors that hinder their promotion in educational institutions like attitude of other students, mental hurdles, inability to balance tradition and modernity, social factors, environment of family, communication, low academic inability etc. While resilience is a necessary attribute of the successful higher degrees students, resilience is an issue and shared responsibility for students, educators, institutions and communities alike. The educators in higher education institutes can use the -Resilency wheel‖ model by Nan Henderson and play the role as agents of protective factors. Educators can create higher education institutes that are havens in which resilience can flourish. Such institutes boost the success of the youth from a under privileged class as they encounter the inevitable adversities in the campus. Providing opportunities for students to feel successful, valued, needed, empowered, and hopeful can be accomplished in ways that enrich required academic studies. This paper is all about the various factors that hinder their resilience, with a few suggestions of resilience building that higher educational institutes can train the educators to follow. With educational institutions involvement as an indicator of resilience, this study explores the ameliorating effect of protective factors on competence and mastery in the educational domain in the presence of risk factors. Suggestions for a proactive approach adopted by educators to build resiliency will be addressed, by emphasizing and strengthening the environment, and not fixing students.

Background: Resilience as “the process of, capacity for, or outcome of successful adaptation despite challenging or threatening circumstances” is one of the more field. Protective factors are “influences that modify, ameliorate, or alter a person’s response to some environmental hazard that predisposes to a maladaptive outcome”. Easy going temperament and good self-regulation have been identified as protective factors in resilience. The ability to self-regulate also seems to be at the core of good interpersonal relationships and peer relationships, rule compliance, reduced risk of depression and anxiety, and a host of other areas fundamental to successful adaptation and functioning.Methods: This study was conducted during period of January 2000 to October 2001. The sample comprised a total number of 400 children between 4-11 years age and their parents and caregivers. The material for the study was drawn from the two private schools situated in Jabalpur city. Tests used in the study...

The study examined the resilience of Indian adolescents, specifically exploring the variations in resilience characteristics between genders. The study investigated a sample of 124 adolescents from the Khordha district. The descriptive statistics indicated that there were moderate levels of resilience observed in all categories, and there were no significant differences between males and female adolescents. The results also indicated that gender does not have a significant effect on resilience characteristics. This challenges the initial belief that boys would exhibit better levels of resilience in some areas. The results are consistent with previous research indicating that resilience is affected by a range of external and interventionrelated factors, rather than being only determined by gender. Research studies emphasize the efficacy of focused interventions and support structures in bolstering resilience, as exemplified by inner-city programs and institutional care settings. In summary, the study suggests that resilience is a dynamic process influenced by several factors, not limited to gender.
