resilience

This study aims to examine the impact of personal development strategies on reducing resistance to organizational changes. This research employed a qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews. Participants included 21 managers and employees from organizations based in Tehran, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected until theoretical saturation was achieved and analyzed using NVivo software with open, axial, and selective coding methods. The results indicated that personal development plays a crucial role in reducing resistance to organizational changes. Key influencing factors included self-awareness, continuous learning, communication skills, resilience, and emotional management, all of which contributed to greater acceptance of change. Additionally, managerial support for employees' personal development and the creation of a learning-oriented organizational environment reduced anxiety and uncertainty associated with change. Employees with stronger self-leadership, stress management, and creative problem-solving skills adapted more easily to organizational changes. This study demonstrated that personal development can be an effective strategy for reducing resistance to organizational changes. Organizations can foster a more adaptable work environment by investing in personal development programs, thereby mitigating the negative impact of employee resistance on productivity.

Resilience has been defined as successful adaptation in the presence of adverse events such as chronic and acute stress and trauma. Dueto the increasing importance of resilience research, to evaluate the level of resilience of people, various scales have been presented and their validity and reliability have been evaluated. The purpose of this article is to validate and assess the reliability of the Persian version of the Scale of Protective Factors.The current research is survey in terms of research strategy, in terms of objective, applied-developmental and quantitative in terms of data type. The target society was the Technical and Vocational Organization of Tehran, where 579 employees participated in this research. To evaluate the divergent validity of the hospital depression and anxiety scale questionnaire, Zigmund and Snaith (1983), and the convergent validity of the Wegenield and Young (1993), Connor and Davidson (2003) resilience, and Prayag et al. (2018) organizational resilience questionnaires were used. To extract the results, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and multivariate correlation have been used.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the four-factor model of the questionnaire has an acceptable fit. Cronbach's alpha was 0.887 for social-interpersonal factor and 0.920 for cognitive-individual factor. The interpersonal social factor with two components of social skills and social support has a significant relationship with the individual cognitive factor with two components of behavioral planning and goal effectiveness, which shows the convergent validity of these factors and components. No significant negative correlation has been observed between two social-interpersonal and cognitive-individual factors.

This research aimed to investigate the impact of game-based resilience training package on social health in Female students of Meibod city. This study is quasiexperimental, using a pre-test and post-test, with a control group design. The samples were 30 students from the sixth primary schools selected by random multistage sampling method, they were divided into two experimental and control groups. To collect data, Keyes' (2004) social health questionnaire was used as pre-test in both groups.

In addition, the structural equation model in PLS-4 software indicated that the direct effect of spiritual well-being on resilience, and the direct effect of spiritual well-being on adaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies are significant (P<0.05). Analyzing the indirect effects of spiritual well-being and resilience by five adaptive emotion regulation strategies demonstrated that only the strategy of refocusing on planning has a significant indirect effect as a mediator (P<0.05).
