Abstract: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the Adversity Quotient® and Leadership Skills of the Student Council Officers in Health-Related Education. The descriptive-correlational method of research was utilized. The respondents were the Student Council Officers serving at School Year 2020-2021. The data were gathered online using the two (2) sets of questionnaires from Dr. Paul G. Stolz (2020) and Peter Northouse (2011) which measured the level of one's Adversity Quotient® and Leadership Skills, respectively. Percentage was used in determining the distribution of responses per each question while mean was used to determine the levels of Adversity Quotient® and Leadership Skills. Findings revealed that the Adversity Quotient® in terms of Control, Ownership, Reach and Endurance was Below Average while the Leadership Skills in terms of three (3) areas namely: Technical, Interpersonal and Conceptual are marked Somewhat True. Pearson r correlation was employed to determine the significant relationship between Adversity Quotient® and Leadership Skills. Pearson r has a value of zero point thirty-seven (0.37) with p-value of zero point zero two (0.02) or interpreted as moderate positive correlation. Since p-value is less than the significance level of 0.05, there is a significant positive relationship between Adversity Quotient® and Leadership Skills. Lastly, T-test has a value of two point fifty-one (2.51) thus there is enough evidence to reject the hypothesis.
