Abstract

Introduction: Academic resilience refers to the ability of socioeconomically disadvantaged students to achieve strong academic outcomes despite structural constraints. However, resilience classifications derived from large-scale assessments may vary because student achievement is represented by multiple plausible values. Methods: This study analyzed PISA 2022 data from 13,439 Indonesian students across 410 schools. Socioeconomic disadvantage was defined using the weighted lowest quartile of the ESCS distribution, while academic resilience was identified separately for each of the ten mathematics plausible values using the weighted highest-quartile achievement threshold. Classification stability was examined across plausible values. Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and XGBoost were evaluated using five-fold school-grouped cross-validation, followed by predictor-domain ablation, SHAP-based importance analysis, and sensitivity testing. Results: An average of 15.20% of disadvantaged students were classified as academically resilient. However, 30.61% showed unstable classifications across plausible values, indicating substantial membership uncertainty. XGBoost achieved the best predictive performance with a weighted AUROC of 0.718 and AUPRC of 0.324. Psychological factors produced the largest incremental predictive gain beyond demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. Growth mindset, disciplinary climate, confidence in 21st-century mathematics skills, family support, and curiosity showed the most consistent predictive importance across plausible-value models. Conclusion: Academic resilience in Indonesia is measurable but not fully invariant across plausible values. Incorporating plausible-value sensitivity provides a more robust framework for identifying resilience and evaluating its associated protective factors.
