The intervention programs to enhance resilience among the subjects included inputs to maximize the cognitive social learning. The intervention programs provided scaffolding for development of the participants by providing an environment that supports development of resilience. The invention focused on providing information to the rural college students on certain psychological concepts that have relevance to resilience potential and discussing the concepts generating possibilities of applying them for furthering their individual resources to do better despite facing the existing adversities. The concepts introduced to the students include conscientiousness, self-concept, and creativity, locus of control, motivation and level of aspiration, study skills, and academic attitudes. The intervention consisted of imparting 7 sessions designed to foster resilience and academic resilience to the participants. Intervention for the experimental group was carried out over a span of 3 months and a half. Following the intervention the post-intervention evaluation was conducted.
