Abstract
Urban resilience occurs in various dimensions and in the most general discussion includes; social, economic, physical and environmental dimensions. Accordingly, having a theoretical and conceptual framework for measuring it in different cities is the main goal of this research, which has been validated and analyzed in the field using a descriptive method of testing the urban resilience scale. The statistical population of the research includes urban management and municipality employees of Ardabil city who are in 1403 and have experience and activity in middle and macro-management positions in this city, with an approximate number of 220 people. Based on the Cochran sample size formula, 140 people were selected as the sample size and the questionnaire questions were exposed to them in the form of a researcher-made questionnaire. The research findings have shown that based on the existing theoretical literature, 4 main indicators and 25 sub-scales have been identified for urban resilience indexing, and all 25 sub-scales have been able to explain the four main resilience indicators with high coefficients. These four indicators include; Social resilience, economic resilience, physical resilience, and environmental resilience are defined as social resilience with 7 components, economic resilience with 6 components, physical resilience with 5 components, and finally environmental resilience with 7 components. All of these components, while having statistical validity for measurement, have described the status of urban resilience in Ardabil, which, based on the descriptive results, is at an average level in all four indicators.
