Wellbeing and resilience are vital to developing efficient problem-solving skills, building and maintaining interpersonal relationships and realistic goal setting, all of which greatly enhance an individual’s ability to perform and contribute meaningfully in daily life. Mental toughness is an overarching term that entails positive psychological resources, which are crucial across a wide range of achievements from learning to academic achievement to wellbeing and in the domain of mental health. In this paper, we explored the relations between the concept of MT and individual differences in learning, educational performance, and psychological wellbeing.
