Abstract
Hardiness has been proven to help with the management of psychological stress. It is an important state-like personality dimension that individuals can develop to cope with stressors. However, there is currently insufficient understanding on why hardiness develops in people. Through an exploratory study based on 55 undergraduate university students who worked on an international consulting project in return for grades, this research examines the relationship between individuals hardiness components of commitment, control and challenge and hope components of willpower and waypower. It is found that individuals hope components may be positively related to specific hardiness components. This bears considerable theoretical and practical implications to hardiness research and the field of hardiness training respectively.
