The factor load and average variance extracted of all components were higher than 0.50 and the combined reliability of all of them was higher than 0.80. Also, the organizational resilience education model of crisis management of universal centers to facing with natural hazards and prevention from psychological and social interventions had a good fit and this model on all three individual, structural and operational dimensions and each dimension on its components had a direct and significant effect (P<0.001).
