The aim of this study was to examine the relation among executive functions of working memory and inhibition, psychological resilience, and depressive symptoms. The research was conducted online in a sample of 290 participants aged 18 to 35. Out of the final number of participants 225 were female, while 64 were male, one participant did not want to identify with either sex. During the study, the participants completed the Sociodemographic Data Questionnaire, the CD-RISC-10 Resilience Scale, the ADEXI executive function inventory and the PHQ-9 depressive symptoms questionnaire. In addition, they completed two behavioral tasks, the N-back working memory task, and a Stroop inhibition task. The results of the correlation analysis indicate the existence of a statistically significant negative relationship between self-assessment of executive function difficulties and resilience. There is also a statistically significant negative association between the N-back working memory task and depressive symptoms. There is a statistically significant negative association of resilience with depressive symptoms. Also, there is a statistically significant positive association between difficulties in working memory and depressive symptoms. Regression analysis showed that the N-back task and psychological resilience are separate negative predictors of depressive symptoms. These predictors together explain 5% of the variance of depressive symptoms. Despite the limitations, the research contributes to literature that seeks to link executive functions and psychological resilience and highlights the importance of working memory in the context of depressive symptoms.
