Research tools included resilience questionnaires (Connor and Davidson, 2003) and psychological well-being (Reif, 1989).

Also, the effectiveness of self-determination skills training and Islamic quality training on increasing psychological well-being was significant (P<0.05) and the effectiveness of Islamic life quality training was more than self-determination skills training.
