Sandín Esteban, Ma. PazSánchez Martí, Angelina2013-06-142013-06-142013-05-151681-5653https://hdl.handle.net/2445/44283This article presents some of the results of a research project whose main objective was to analyse the relationship between resilience and school success of students of foreign origin at a time of special academic vulnerability: the transition from compulsory secondary education (ESO) to post-compulsory education (PO). By non-probabilistic-incidental sampling, the study was conducted in four schools of Barcelona and province, with 94 participants from 15 to 18 years old. This research of a longitudinal design had five phases combining strategies to collect qualitative and quantitative data. The results presented here are the result of the SV-RES adapted scale and two other self-produced tools-a center scale and a general questionnaire. The results obtained have confirmed the fulfilment of the hypothesis: immigrant students who manage to persevere in post-compulsory stages (Spanish Baccalaureate and/or Vocational Training) show higher levels of resilience.11 p.application/pdfspacc-by-nc-nd (c) OrganizacióndelosEstadosIberoamericanosparalaEducación,laCienciaylaCultura, 2013http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/esResiliència (Tret de la personalitat)Rendiment acadèmicEmigració i immigracióEducació secundàriaResilience (Personality trait)Academic achievementEmigration and immigrationSecondary educationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6262242013-06-14info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
