Background and Aim: Life in today's world is filled with stress and challenges, requiring individuals to develop skills to cope with crises. One such skill is resilience. This study aims to determine the correlation between hope and resilience among students at Khorramshahr University of Marine Science and Technology.
Methods: This research utilized a descriptive-correlational design. The study population consisted of all students enrolled at Khorramshahr University of Marine Science and Technology in 2021. A sample size of 200 participants was determined through simple random sampling. Data were collected using three questionnaires: a demographic questionnaire, Miller’s Hope Scale, and Connor’s Resilience Scale. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 24, employing descriptive statistics, analysis of variance, independent t-tests, and Pearson's correlation coefficient.
Results: The mean and standard deviation for hope and resilience were 148.45±5.75 and 67.09±7.07, respectively. The results indicated a statistically significant relationship between the average resilience scores and marital status (P<0.05). Additionally, Pearson's correlation coefficient revealed a significant correlation between hope and resilience among students (P=0.03).
Conclusion: The findings suggest that both resilience and hope play crucial roles in the mental health of students. By fostering hope and resilience, it may be possible to enhance students' life satisfaction. Furthermore, hope serves as a psychological strength that contributes to increased resilience. Therefore, implementing educational programs, workshops, and establishing counseling and support groups can be effective intervention strategies to nurture hope among students. |
