The reliability of the questionnaires was examined separately using Cronbach's alpha method and the construct validity of the questionnaires. Data were analyzed through SPSS software version 25 and Pearson correlation coefficient and Multiple Regression Analyses.

The results showed that the variables of communication skills, mental health and life expectancy can predict the resilience of student teachers (p<0.05).

In general, the results indicated the role of communication skills, mental health and life expectancy in predicting student-teacher resilience, and the results can be part of Farhangian University's empowerment programs for student teachers.
