Abstract As a key element of positive psychology capital, resilience is the psychological mechanism of effective adaptation, recovery and growth under stress and crisis. We study the impact mechanism of resilience on subsequent entrepreneurial learning to explore the motivation of the entrepreneur’s learning condition in the context of failure and deepen the study of the learning process and learning behavior after failure through psychological capital and behavior perspective. 203 questionnaires were used to test the hypothesis and the results of the empirical analysis show that entrepreneurs who have a high level of resilience can bounce back quickly from the failure and learn from it. Entrepreneurs with high level of resilience have significant positive influence on single and double loop learning. Economic costs have inverted U-shaped adjustments in the relationship between resilience and double-loop learning, and emotional costs have inverted U-shaped adjustment in the relationship between resilience and single-loop learning.
