Academic resilience, as a psychological strength when facing challenges, plays an key role in maintaining balance and achieving academic success. </span></span><br> <span style="unicode-bidi:embed"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><b>Objectives:</b></span> <span style="color:black">This study aimed to examine the relationship between academic resilience and academic satisfaction among undergraduate nursing students.</span></span><br> <span style="unicode-bidi:embed"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><b>Methods:</b></span> <span style="color:black">This correlational study was conducted among 238 undergraduate nursing students at the School </span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color:black">o</span></span><span style="color:black">f Nursing and Midwifery, Iran University of Medical Sciences. Participants were recruited via convenience sampling from March 2023 to June 2024. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, the Samuels Academic Resilience Scale, and the Lent Academic Satisfaction Scale. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis in SPSS version 16.</span></span><br> <span style="unicode-bidi:embed"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><b>Results:</b></span><span style="color:black"> The majority of participants were female (52.1%), single (98.7%), and had a mean age of 22.83 (SD = 3.61). The mean scores for academic resilience and academic satisfaction were 99.46 (SD = 12.62) and 21.11 (6.64), respectively. A significant positive correlation was observed between resilience and academic satisfaction (r  =  0.439, <i>p</i>  <  0.001). After adjusting for confounders, resilience remained a significant predictor of satisfaction (&beta;  =  0.18, <i>p</i>  <  0.001), and the model explained 40% of the variance (R&sup2;  =  0.40).</span></span><br> <span style="unicode-bidi:embed"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><b>Conclusion:</b> </span><span style="color:black">Academic resilience significantly improves nursing students&rsquo; academic satisfaction. Strengthening resilience skills can enhance mental health, academic performance, and overall satisfaction; therefore, resilience training should be integrated into educational programs and explored in future intervention studies.<b> </b></span><b><span style="color:black"></span></b></span></span></span></span><br> &nbsp;</div> Resilience, Students, Undergraute, Nursing, Satisfaction. 77 84 http://nmcjournal.zums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-1082-2&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Seyed mahmoud Hosseini Hosseini.seyedmahmoud@yahoo.com 100319475328460015723 100319475328460015723 No Industrial Engineering Department, North Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran Seyedeh Esmat Hosseini esmat.hosseini_110@yahoo.com 100319475328460015722 100319475328460015722 Yes Medical Surgical Nursing Department, Nursing and Midwifery School, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran
