Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between resilience and psychological well-being on the level of accounting understanding among students through a 2x2 factorial experimental approach. Resilience describes an individual^s ability to overcome challenges, while psychological well-being encompasses emotional balance and life satisfaction. Both aspects are believed to play a role in helping students cope with academic pressure and deeply understand accounting concepts. The research was conducted on Accounting Education students at the State University of Medan, with a sample grouped based on levels of resilience and psychological well-being, measured using the CD-RISC and Ryff^s Psychological Well-Being Scales instruments.

The study was carried out in several stages, including the initial data collection, the implementation of a case simulation-based accounting learning intervention, and the analysis of results using a two-way ANOVA. This process was designed to evaluate the direct effects of both independent variables and their interaction on students^ accounting understanding. The expected outcomes of this study include a final report, publication in a nationally accredited Sinta journal, indexed international proceedings, and copyright registration for the research report.
