The research also aimed to reveal the relative contribution of both Resilience and the Will to live in predicting post-traumatic growth in women, sample consisting of ( 138) A woman who had been exposed to a trauma,. Their ages ranged between (20-45) with an average of (24.70) and a standard deviation of (6.71) research tools: short form scale of the cumulative stresses and trauma scale, the Resilience scale, Will to live scale, and the post-traumatic growth scale. The results of the research revealed the significance of the relationship between Resilience and post-traumatic growth in women, but the results did not reveal the significance of the relationship between the Will to live and post-traumatic growth. The results of the multiple linear regression coefficient also showed the contribution of Resilience in predicting post-traumatic growth and non-significance of the contribution of Will to live. The prediction equation resulted in the total contribution of the research variables to the variance of post-traumatic growth (46,31).     
research concluded by recommending the necessity of allocating treatment units and centers to care for individuals suffering from trauma, for the purpose of providing mental and physical health care and subjecting them to specialized treatment programs and pointing to Some suggested research
