HERNANDEZ LEON, José Alonso et al. Resiliene. Differences between Graduate Students and Young Workers. Pensam. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.1, pp.21-30. ISSN 1657-8961. https://doi.org/10.11144/javerianacali.ppsi18-1.rdeu.
Objective.
To compare the levels of resilience between university and young workers, as well as between men and women, and to identify possible relationships of this variable with the age of the participants.
Method.
This was a correlational study with transversal-correlational design. The sample was incidental and was made up of 188 people between 18 to 27 years old. At the time of the study, 138 of the participants were pursuing an undergraduate major in the university and 50 of them were workers. To measure the study variable, the Resilience Scale was used in its translated and adapted version to Spanish.
Results.
The main finding is that university students obtain significantly higher scores than workers, both in the total resilience test (t(186)=-3.98, p = 0.000, d=0.65) and in the two dimensions that compose it, Personal competence (t(186)=-4.45, p=0.000, d=0.73) and Acceptance of self and life (t(186)=-2.23, p=0.026, d=0.36)
Conclusion.
The general conclusion indicates that having a higher level of education, university, is a protective factor in the face of adversity (greater resilience).
