Resumen

Las fortalezas psicológicas ayudan a enfrentar los desafíos emergentes y fomentar la salud mental. El objetivo de esta investigación es determinar la asociación de ansiedad, resiliencia con el bienestar psicológico de estudiantes universitarios. El enfoque del estudio fue cuantitativo, no experimental, de corte transversal y alcance correlacional predictivo. Para el análisis se realizó una regresión logística binomial. Se utilizó la escala de bienestar psicológico de Ryff, escala de 10 ítems de Connor-Davidson. Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) y la escala de trastorno de ansiedad generalizada (GAD-2). Participaron 378 alumnos de la universidad pública de Guatemala. La edad M = 22.2 (SD = 2.11), siendo 252 (66.70 %) mujeres. La razón de posibilidades (OR) para un indicador bajo de trastorno generalizado de ansiedad fue de 2.907 (IC 95% 1.718 - 4.922) mientras que un indicador alto de resiliencia en 4.816 (IC 95% 3.052 - 7.601), los cuales afectan al bienestar psicológico, con una varianza explicada de 26.20 % (Nagelkerke R²). El modelo fue significativo (p < .001). Los resultados sugieren que se debe de prestar más atención a la ansiedad y la resiliencia para el desarrollo y la mejora del bienestar y salud mental durante la COVID-19.
