Resilience and academic performance in mathematics and science among middle school students: The mediating role of computational thinking

This cross-sectional study of 401 Turkish middle school students found that psychological resilience was indirectly associated with mathematics and science achievement through computational thinking. For mathematics, the direct link became nonsignificant once computational thinking was accounted for, while the science link remained significant. Because the design is cross-sectional, the authors do not claim a causal or temporal mediation.
