ABSTRACT

Introduction: Adversity Quotient®, is the most robust product and method widely used in the world to measure human resilience.
Objective: To set the Adversity Quotient, in the Army future soldiers.
Method: A review of the state of the issue was carried out, which led to the adoption of the theoretical bases that support the study. The methodology was of the field trans-sectional type, having 1227 candidates for future soldiers and a total sample of 332 units of information corresponding to 10 platoons selected at random, from two academic courses. The instrument used for data collection was the Adversity Quotient, composed of 75 items, which evaluated the factors Control, Property, Scope and Duration, as well as determined the field Adversity Quotient of the sample studied.
Results: The most important results allows to report that the personnel has high levels of Control, Property and Duration, in reference to the Scope the level is also high but in a lower average to the previous ones.
Conclusion: In general terms the sample has a high level of adversity coefficient.
