摘要:College life is expected to prepare young people for life and to contribute to their being more resilient and hopeful when they face problems. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the levels of resilience and hopelessness differ based on gender, class level, and major variables and whether resilience was a predictor variable of hopelessness for college students. This study was planned as a descriptive one that used the correlational research method. Data of the research was collected from 513 freshmen and senior undergraduate students studying in seven different departments of Ankara University. The Resiliency Scale and Beck Hopelessness Scale were used as data collection tools. An independent sample t-test, one way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient and simple linear regression analysis were utilized for data analyses. The results of the study revealed that resilience scores did not show any significant difference across genders but showed significant difference with regards to the students’ class levels. Resilience scores were significant predictors of hopelessness scores. In general, results of the study were observed to be consistent with related literature.
