Este estudio examina cómo el éxito académico pasado se relaciona con el éxito académico futuro, a través de dos mecanismos psicológicos subyacentes, como son la resiliencia y la autoeficacia académica. La muestra se compone de 773 estudiantes de una Universidad española, que completaron cuestionarios de autoinforme sobre las variables psicológicas (i.e., resiliencia y autoeficacia) y además proporcionaron su consentimiento para acceder al expediente académico con sus notas tanto pre como post al pase de los cuestionarios. Los análisis de Ecuaciones Estructurales revelan que la relación entre éxito académico pasado y futuro está mediada de manera parcial por la resiliencia y la autoeficacia académica. Es decir, aunque el éxito académico pasado influye de manera significativa sobre el éxito académico en el futuro, la resiliencia y la autoeficacia también influyen al incremento del éxito académico. Según los resultados, se presentan las implicaciones teóricas y prácticas del estudio, así como sus limitaciones.
