Resilience and Psychological Well-Being During Career Transitions Education

Abstract

Career transitions represent significant developmental milestones that often involve changes in educational pathways, employment status, professional roles, or career aspirations. While these transitions provide opportunities for personal and professional growth, they also expose individuals to uncertainty, stress, and psychological challenges that may influence their overall well-being. Among students and early-career professionals, resilience has emerged as a critical psychological resource that enables individuals to adapt effectively to changing circumstances, overcome setbacks, and maintain positive mental health during periods of transition. the relationship between resilience and psychological well-being during career transitions from an educational perspective, with particular emphasis on university students preparing to enter the workforce. A quantitative research design is proposed using a structured questionnaire to assess resilience, psychological well-being, career adaptability, and perceived transition-related stress among final-year undergraduate and postgraduate students. Standardized measurement scales may be employed to evaluate resilience, emotional well-being, self-efficacy, life satisfaction, and career readiness. The collected data can be analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression techniques to determine the extent to which resilience predicts psychological well-being during career transitions.
