Abstract
An analysis of some of the correlates of psychological hardiness in Canadian adolescents was presented in the present study. In a regression analysis, sex, age, grade in school, religion, and well-being were all significantly associated with differences in hardiness. Exploratory path analyses indicated two possible streams of causality: age and grade in school, and religion, sex, and happiness. A discriminate analysis indicated that these same five variables could be used successfully to classify 73% of the adolescents identified as high or low in hardiness.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
