Spiritual intelligence involves a kind of adaptation and problem solving that involves the highest levels of growth in different cognitive and ethical domains and helps the individual to coordinate with the surrounding phenomena. The purpose of this study was to explain the relationship between moral intelligence and spiritual intelligence with psychological resilience in students: to investigate the mediating role of spiritual intelligence. In this study, 80 female students of the academic year 2010-2011 in Behshahr were selected by multi-stage random cluster sampling. Participants completed Lennick and Kiel (2005), Shah Hoseini and Mokhtarpour Poor's Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire (2010) and Conner's Persistence Scale and Davidson (2003), Correlation and regression tests were used to analyze the data. The results showed that spiritual intelligence and moral intelligence can significantly predict 25% of the variance of students' resilience (P <0.01). Based on the research results and the role of spiritual and moral intelligence in increasing resilience, in programs based on increasing resilience, it is necessary to pay attention to these factors.
