Due to the positive effects of resilience on different dimensions of health, the aim of this study was to propose and examine a model for a deeper understanding of the predictive factors of resilience. In this hypothetical model, self-esteem was suggested as the mediator of the relationship between spiritual health and resilience. This correlational design’s statistical sample consisted of 240 university students who were chosen via multilevel cluster sampling from different faculties of Iran University of Medical Sciences in 2018. For data collecting, the Spiritual Health Questionnaire, Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory, and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale were utilized, and for data analysis, the Pearson correlation method and structural equation modeling were calculated using SPSS 18 and LISREL 8.5 software. According to the results of the current study, self-esteem played a partially mediating role in the relation between spiritual health and resilience. The fitness indices demonstrated satisfying fitness of the model. Since spiritual and religious beliefs are important topics in the lives of the people of Iran, it is possible to strengthen the field of self-esteem and resilience through education on spirituality and increase their positive attitudes toward life.

大学生的精神健康和韧性：自尊的中介作用

由于复原力对健康的不同维度具有积极影响，本研究的目的是提出并检验一个模型，以更深入地了解复原力的预测因素。在这个假设模型中，自尊被认为是精神健康和韧性之间关系的中介。该相关设计的统计样本包括 240 名大学生，他们于 2018 年从伊朗医科大学的不同学院通过多级整群抽样选择。 用于数据收集的精神健康问卷、Coopersmith 自尊量表和 Connor-Davidson Resilience利用量表进行数据分析，采用 SPSS 18 和 LISREL 8.5 软件计算 Pearson 相关法和结构方程模型。根据目前的研究结果，自尊在精神健康和韧性之间的关系中起部分中介作用。适应度指数表明模型的适应度令人满意。由于精神和宗教信仰是伊朗人民生活中的重要话题，因此可以通过灵性教育加强自尊和复原力领域，并提高他们对生活的积极态度。
