In psychology, this issue is explained by the concept of psychological resilience. Psychological resilience can be briefly expressed as the motivation developed by the individuals to protect themselves from the potential effects of the negativities they encounter. In terms of professions; It is expressed as the psychological resilience of individuals in their professional lives. In the definitions in the literature, occupational resilience is emphasized as the ability of individuals who encounter stress in business life to resist it. However, there is no doubt that every profession has its own problems, and these risks and problems cause stress on those who practice that profession. In this regard, the aim of the study is to determine the psychological and professional resilience of accounting instructors with the help of scales related to both subjects and to determine the effect of their psychological resilience on their professional resilience. In addition, it is within the scope of the study to determine whether psychological and professional resilience differ in terms of demographic variables. The population of the study was determined as Accounting instructors working in higher education institutions in Turkey. In sampling, snowball sampling method was adopted and participants were requested to answer the "Psychological Resilience" scale and "Occupational Resilience" scale sent to them. As a result of the research analyzed using the structural equation model, the psychological and professional resilience levels of accounting instructors were determined and suggestions were made in the context of strengthening these situations in accounting instructors with low resilience levels.
