Abstract
The Covid-19 pandemic has had many impacts on all individuals. Mental health and student academic performance are the two things that have been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. This study aims to determine the effect of personal growth initiative (PGI) on student grit during the pandemic. This study involved 231 respondents, consisting of 80 men and 151 women. The measuring tools used are PGIS-II and Grit-S (short scale). Data were collected using purposive sampling and the type of research used was non-experimental research with quantitative methods. The results of hypothesis analysis using a linear regression test between PGI and grit obtained R 2 = 0.042, F = 11.047, p = 0.001. This shows that there is a positive influence between PGI on student grit during the pandemic.
