The results of the study showed the value of F = 81.53 and p = 0.000 (p <0.01), which means self-concept predicts resilience significantly. Magnitude of the role of self-concept to the resilience is 51.1% and the remaining 48.9% is influenced by other factors. It can be concluded that self-concept contribute significantly to the pensioners resilience.
