This study aimed to explore the relationship of resilience towards quality of life and psychological wellbeing of elders in selected barangays in the City of Cabuyao, Laguna. This was done using quantitative method where it focuses on gathering numerical data and generalizing it across groups of people or to explain a particular phenomenon. The researchers conducted a survey in different areas in City of Cabuyao to gather information. The respondents’ elders answered the survey questionnaires by checking the columns that corresponds to their desired answer. Scores on all variables were tested and correlated and the mean scores, frequency and percentage distribution, and Pearson productmoment correlation coefficients were computed.

Thus, the researchers recommend for a more indepth study in which this could be a great help, to share knowledge about the life of boomers in the relationship of quality of life, resilience and psychological well-being.
