Abstract

This study analyzes the predictive contribution of Self-esteem and Hope (Hope for Happiness) towards
the level of Resilience in university students involved in toxic relationships. Given the emotional complexity faced by students in early adulthood, Resilience is a vital ability for recovery from psychological distress. This correlational quantitative research utilized an online survey (Self-esteem, Hope, and Resilience Scales) and was analyzed using multiple regression techniques. The findings indicate that Self-esteem and Hope simultaneously have a highly significant influence on Resilience. Collectively, these two internal variables are strong predictors, accounting for up to 92.6% of the variance in students' Resilience. Partially, both variables were also found to be significant predictors. The conclusion affirms that strengthening self-worth and future optimism are the dominant internal protective factors. This study recommends focusing campus psychological interventions on reinforcing these two internal aspects to enhance students' mental toughness.
