Abstract

The development of resilience during adolescence constitutes a key factor in the prevention of risk behaviors and the strengthening of emotional well-being within educational contexts. This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate an educational intervention program focused on promoting resilience factors among tenth-grade students at Unidad Educativa 24 de Mayo. The research followed a quantitative-methods approach with a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest single-group design. The sample consisted of students aged 13 to 15, selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling. The program included eight sessions centered on the development of socioemotional skills, the identification of protective factors, and coping strategies in the face of adversity. Data collection was carried out using a standardized resilience scale administered before and after the intervention. The results of the intervention plan applied to the tenth-grade students showed a significant increase in participants’ resilience levels following the program, with notable improvements in areas such as self-confidence, empathy, and problem-solving skills. Based on the posttest outcomes, which revealed an increase in resilience scores, it is concluded that the proposed educational intervention is an effective tool for fostering resilience factors in adolescents, thereby contributing to their holistic development and the strengthening of their mental health within the school context.
