The present study aimed to examine the relationship between spiritual intelligence and cognitive emotion regulation with the resilience of female heads of households. The research method was quantitative and correlational in nature. The statistical population included all female heads of households covered by the Welfare Organization of Tehran in the year 1398 (2019-2020). The sample size for this research was determined to be 368 individuals based on Cochran’s formula. To collect the research data, the Resilience Questionnaire (Connor & Davidson, 1992), Spiritual Intelligence Scale (King, 2008), and Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (Garnfsky et al., 2001) were utilized. In this study, Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis were employed for data analysis using SPSS-19 software. According to the results obtained, critical existential thinking, personal meaning-making, expansion of consciousness, and transcendent awareness explained 17%, 6%, 18%, and 13% of the variance in resilience, respectively. Additionally, the results indicated that the components of acceptance, positive reappraisal, planning reappraisal, and reevaluation positively and significantly predicted 24%, 15%, 20%, and 12% of the variance in resilience. Catastrophizing negatively and significantly predicted resilience in female heads of households by 11%. Finally, based on the findings, spiritual intelligence was able to predict 22% of the resilience in female heads of households, while cognitive emotion regulation predicted 37% of their resilience. Therefore, spiritual intelligence and cognitive emotion regulation play a predictive role in resilience, and enhancing them can improve the level of resilience in female heads of households.
