Before and after training, they responded to the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II (Walker, Sechrist & Pender, 1995) and the Scales of Psychological Well-Being-Short Form (Ryff, 1989). The experimental group received 10 Psychological Resilience Training Program sessions (2 hours a session). The results statis- tical procedure of simple mixed ANOVA, indicated that the Psychological Resilience Training Program was effective in increasing or promoting health-oriented behaviors such as health responsibility, physical activity, nutrition, spiritual growth, interpersonal relations with others, and stress management. Also, this program was effective in the scales of psychological well-being such as independence, environmental mastery, personal growth, positive relations with others, purpose in life, and self-acceptance.
