Abstract

The study presented addresses the issue of human resilience considering the ecological approach to human development. This approach focuses its effort on analyzing the behavior according to its multi-causality, in which external and internal factors interconjugan making the human being a subject, whose inner qualities and capabilities are strongly influenced by the environment or context. The study internalizes the characteristics of a quantitative study carried out with the comparative method with descriptive dimensions. A total of 448 students from the faculties of education of two universities in the city of Huancayo were evaluated (nonprobabilistically): UNCP and UPLA. For the measurement of Resilience, the Wagnild and Young ER Scale was adapted. The results indicate a greater predominance of students with an average level of resilience. At a comparative level it was possible to specify that the type of management of the university is an influential differential factor in the configuration of the resilience profile of the students investigated, which allowed to observe higher levels of resilience in the students coming from private universities. In contrast, gender is not shown as a differential factor in the evaluated psychosocial variable.
