Abstract

This study determined how demographic variables, namely gender, age, and perceived stress, influence emotional resilience among training interns. This study employed the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) to measure psychological constructs among teaching interns. Since the research scholar and research supervisor opted Google forms to collect data, convenience sampling will be the most appropriate sampling technique. The data collected through Google Forms were analysed using SPSS 20.0. The Descriptive statistics, correlation matrices, and regression models were statistical techniques used to decode the data. The findings of this study highlight an inverse relationship between perceived stress, emotional resilience, and positioning stress as significant predictors. Age had a moderate influence, whereas sex-related differences remained marginal. These outcomes emphasise the importance of integrating resilience enhancement strategies into teacher education curricula. Future studies could use practical programs to help improve resilience and explore how it works in different cultures and college types.
