Abstract

This research was conducted to determine the effect of resilience on the psychological distress of female medical students. The scale used is The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10), and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) 10. The scale was distributed to 134 selected subjects using a quota sample. The data obtained were then tested for normality and analyzed using linear regression in SPSS 23 for windows to check the effect of resilience on psychological distress. From the results of the analysis, it is known that resilience has a negative influence on psychological distress in female medical students at 18.2%. This means that the higher the resilience, the lower the psychological distress, and the lower the resilience, the higher the psychological distress of female medical students.
