Abstract
In the context of modern global challenges, particularly war, the issue of resilience has become increasingly significant. Resilience refers to an individual's mental, physical, emotional, and behavioral capacity to adapt, recover, perform effectively under conditions of risk, adversity, and challenges, and to learn and grow from setbacks. This study aimed to assess the level of personal resilience among higher education students from various fields of study during the martial law period in Ukraine. A total of 230 students were surveyed and divided into three groups based on their fields of study: "Health Care" (137 students), "Humanities" (38 students), and "Mechanical Engineering" (55 students). The psychodiagnostics assessment of personal resilience levels was conducted using the Brief Resilience Scale. A moderate level of personal resilience predominated in the overall sample and across all groups, both in terms of mean scores and prevalence. Male participants more frequently exhibited high levels of personal resilience, whereas female students in the "Humanities" field predominantly demonstrated low resilience levels, identifying them as a risk group with a reduced capacity to adapt to stress. These findings are crucial to consider when planning psycho-preventive and psycho-corrective interventions aimed at enhancing student resilience, particularly under martial law conditions.
