Abstract

The aim of this study was to enhance the psychological resilience of children at environmental risk through a counseling program. The study was conducted on a sample of sixty boys and girls, divided into two groups. The first group was an experimental group consisting of thirty boys and girls representing the random environment, and the second group was a control group consisting of thirty boys and girls representing the planned environment. The researcher used two tools: a psychological resilience scale and a counseling program. To verify the study hypotheses, the researcher used several statistical methods, including independent samples t-test, paired samples t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and effect size calculation. The study found the following results: there were statistically significant differences in psychological resilience between the experimental and control groups in favor of the experimental group, and the effect size of the program on the experimental group was large. There were also statistically significant differences in the dimensions of psychological resilience between the pre-test and post-test measurements for the experimental group, in favor of the post-test measurement, with a large effect size.
