Resilience is a character quality that enables people to successfully navigate difficult situations, change, and grow. Mindfulness is defined as paying attention to a state of consciousness that shows the mind is present and has a heightened and purposeful awareness of internal and external sensations occurring at a specific time. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between resilience and mindfulness among the adolescent students of Central and Northern Odisha. It was also proposed to find out the moderate role of resilience in predicting mindfulness among Central and Northern Odisha adolescents. A convenient sample (N = 385) of adolescent university students from the northern (n = 152, 39.5%) and central (n = 233, 60.5%), private and public sectors, including both males (n = 193, 50.1%) and females (n = 192, 49.9%), was collected. The sample was evaluated using the Brief Resilience Scale (Smith et al., 2008) and the Five-Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (Baer et al., 2012). Results indicated that resilience and mindfulness were positively correlated. There is a positive and significant relationship existing between resilience and mindfulness (r = 0.469, df = 383, p < 0.01). Results revealed a little gender difference in resilience and mindfulness. |
