description The study was conducted in order to examine the factors affecting Problem Solving Skills and Resilience of the Undergraduates. The study was conducted at Muş Alparslan University in Muş between February and March 2015. The research sample has 397 students in Mus Alparslan University, including the first and fourth grades of all undergraduate departments. In the data collection process, "Questions about sociodemographic characteristics of the students", "Adult Resilience Scale" and "Problem Solving Inventory" were used. After the approval of the ethics committee for the research and the permission of the institution, the students were informed about the study in the classroom environment and the data were collected on the basis of volunteerism. In the evaluation of the data, frequency and percentage calculation, distribution of data, t test in independent groups, spearman correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis and one way variance analysis test were used. Resilience average score of the students was determined to be 98.52 ± 17.78. Students' problem-solving skills average points was found as 102.72 ± 21.85. As a result of evaluation of research data; it was found that the difference between the mean age of the students, the mother's educational status, self-efficacy in school life and their parents' attitudes towards themselves and their resilience scores were statistically significant (p<0.05). In addition, it was determined that the difference between the average age of the students, the mother's education level and the income level of the families and the average of the problem-solving ability scores were statistically significant(p<0.05). It was determined that as the average score of problem solving skills decreased, the average score of psychological resilience increased. There was a significant relationship between problem solving and psychological resilience (p=0.000). It was seen that the students had moderate psychological resilience, and that the economic status, mother education, school life, family attitudes, and problem solving skills affected psychological resilience.
