Year: 2025

Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the influence of mental resilience and social support on the psychological well-being of workers in the oil and gas industry. The method used is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional survey design. The study sample consisted of 200 oil and gas workers selected through stratified random sampling. The research instrument was a questionnaire that measured mental resilience using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), social support using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and psychological well-being using the Ryff's Psychological Well-Being Scale. The results showed that mental resilience and social support simultaneously had a significant effect on psychological well-being. Mental resilience had a more dominant influence than social support. In addition, it was found that workers aged over 35 years and working experience of more than 10 years had higher levels of mental resilience. These findings indicate the importance of strengthening mental resilience and social support in efforts to maintain the psychological well-being of oil and gas workers facing high work pressure.
