Abstract: Objective: The primary purpose was to assess, quantitatively, the relationship between levels of resilience and experiences of diversity and inclusion among students, and identify demographic factors most associated with these outcomes. The secondary purpose was to explore, qualitatively, students' experiences of diversity and inclusion and their perspectives on how these experiences influenced their resilience. Participants: Undergraduates (n = 276) from 19 universities in Ontario, Canada. Methods: Mixed methods using demographic questions, three validated scales (measuring resilience, diversity, and inclusion), and interviews. Results: Significant positive correlations were found between resilience and experiences of diversity and feelings of inclusion. Significant associations were found between demographics indicative of equity-deserving group membership and these outcomes. Through interviews (n = 25), students described mostly positive experiences of diversity at university, with room for improvement regarding inclusion experiences. Conclusion: The relationship between resilience and diversity and inclusion can inform meaningful institutional practices to advance undergraduates' experiences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
