Streszczenie: Nigeryjczycy rozwijają odporność i poczucie własnej skuteczności, aby przeciwdziałać skutkom trudności w kraju. To tak, jakby wiedzieli, że silne poczucie własnej skuteczności jest ważnym elementem odporności. Celem tej pracy badawczej jest sprawdzenie związku między odpornością a poczuciem własnej skuteczności. Zbadaliśmy ten konkretny problem, korzystając z teorii własnej skuteczności. Materiał i metody: Celem badań byli obywatele Nigerii wywodzący się z różnych grup etnicznych. Próba badawcza liczyła 343 osoby: 139 mężczyzn (40,5%) i 204 kobiety (59,5%). Wyniki: Wynik pokazuje, że znaczna liczba osób, które odpowiedziały na kwestionariusz, potrafi kierować swoimi niepokojami w obliczu kryzysu i nie unika stawiania czoła konfliktom. Wnioski: W tym celu Nigeryjczycy budują swoją odporność i poczucie własnej skuteczności, ponieważ bez tych cech jednostka naraża się na ryzyko przytłoczenia przeciwnościami losu, kryzysu oraz poddania się poczuciu beznadziejności i rozpaczy.

It is as if they know that a strong sense of self-efficacy is an important component of resilience. The purpose of this research work is to see the link between resilience and self-efficacy. We studied this particular problem using the theory of self-efficacy. Material and methods The target of this research was the citizens of Nigeria from different ethnic groups. Our sample was composed of 343 individuals: 139 males (40.5%) while 204 were females (59.5%). Results The result shows that a good number of those who answered the questionnaire calm their anxiety in the face of crisis and tend not to avoid conflict. Conclusions To this effect, Nigerians build their resilience and self-efficacy, because without these traits the individual risk becoming overwhelmed by adversity, crisis, and succumbing to feelings of hopelessness and despair.
