Multiple Correlations of Resilience with Self-Compassion, Self-Control, and Problem-Solving Styles in Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Workers in Isfahan, Iran

Resilience refers to human ability for adapting to disasters, traumas, pain, and suffering from important troubles and stressors in life.
Regarding the fact that people are continuously exposed to various physical and mental health traumatic stimuli, this study aimed to investigate the resilience correlations in Emergency Medical Services (EMS) workers.
The study was descriptive-correlation which examined 15 individuals for each scale and subscale. Therefore, 150 EMS workers were selected for this study.
All four variables, including resilience, self-control, problem-solving style, and self-compassion, were above average. Resilience had a positive and significant correlation with self-control, problem-solving, creativity, confidence in problem-solving, and tendency (a subscale of problem-solving). Self-control had a positive and significant correlation with self-compassion. The final model was as resilience = 0.454 + 41.317 [15.941+ 0.622 (self-compassion)] + 3.453 (tendency) + 3.255 (creativity).
According to the findings of the present study, it is suggested to strengthen four variables of resilience, self-compassion, self-control, and problem-solving styles in the EMS personnel.
