Background and Objectives: Nowadays adolescents as the human capital of every society, in addition to the pressures of transition from adolescence period, are affected by environmental pressures, such as poverty, violence, and substance abuse. Given these factors, resilience plays an important role in this period. The present study aimed to investigate the role of happiness, attachment styles, and religious attitudes in predicting the resilience of students.
Methods: This descriptive correlational study was performed on 354 students selected through the multistage cluster sampling method from the students of junior high schools in Najafabad, Iran. Data collection tools included the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (1989), Attachment Style Questionnaire by Hazen and Shaver (1987), Religious Attitude Questionnaire by Barahani and Golriz (1975), and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (2003). In order to analyze the relationships between the variables and predict resilience, the Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis were used.
Results: Our findings showed that happiness, religious attitude, and secure attachment style had a significant relationship with the resilience of students (P<0.01). The results of the regression analysis revealed that the strongest predicting variables of resilience in students were happiness, religious attitude, and secure attachment style (P<0.01).
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, happiness, religious attitude, and secure attachment style could be regarded as important factors in the resilience of students.
