Abstract: PURPOSE: This study was conducted to evaluate a stress coping course for psychological resilience among a group of university nursing students. DESIGN AND METHODS: This was a quantitative study that had a pretest/posttest design without a control group. Data were collected from 78 first-year nursing students using a Stress Self-assessment Checklist and the Psychological Resilience Questionnaire (PRQ). FINDINGS: A significant increase was determined in the subscales of self-perception and social resources of PRQ following the course (P ≤ 0.05). PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: The findings emphasized that more attention should be given to the potential role of psychological resilience in dealing with the inevitable sources of stress in the education of nursing students.
