University education should not be limited to mere instruction in professional skills but should foster the holistic development of students. This approach is particularly necessary in a changing society marked by rapid technological advances, labor transformations and global challenges. Therefore, higher education must offer students the opportunity to develop strategies to protect and improve their mental health. Within the concept of mental health is resilience, which enables the mobilization of internal and external resources to cope with and learn from challenging situations, managing change and uncertainty more effectively. Using a mixed methodological approach based on an explanatory sequential design, the present study aims to determine the effect of Service-Learning on the levels of resilience of students enrolled in the degree of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences at the Universitat Jaume I in Spain. To this end, the Resilience Questionnaire for Adults (RQA) was administered before and after a Service-Learning program. The reflection diaries written by the participants ( = 54) were analyzed too. The quantitative results show an improvement, which is significant for the "adaptative" and "tolerance" components of resilience, while the qualitative phase allows us to understand these results. In general, the findings point to the development of resilience among participants, which is a result consistent with previous literature suggesting that Service-Learning can be an adequate approach to foster the acquisition of skills present in the resilience construct, while favoring learning and fostering social compromise.
大学教育不应局限于专业技能的传授，而应促进学生的全面发展。在一个以快速技术进步、劳动力转型和全球挑战为特征的不断变化的社会中，这种方法尤为必要。因此，高等教育必须为学生提供发展保护和改善心理健康策略的机会。心理健康概念中包含复原力，它能够调动内部和外部资源来应对具有挑战性的情况并从中学习，从而更有效地应对变化和不确定性。本研究采用基于解释性序列设计的混合方法，旨在确定服务学习对西班牙哈恩大学体育活动与运动科学专业学生复原力水平的影响。为此，在服务学习项目前后分别进行了成人复原力量表（RQA）测试。同时，对54名参与者所写的反思日记也进行了分析。定量结果显示有改善，这在复原力的“适应”和“耐受”分量表上具有显著性，而定性阶段则有助于我们理解这些结果。总体而言，研究结果表明参与者的复原力有所发展，这一结果与之前的文献一致，即服务学习是培养复原力结构中所具备技能的一种适当方法，同时有利于学习和促进社会责任感。
