Abstract
<p style="text-align:justify">Adversity Quotient is a person's response to overcoming obstacles or problems. Barriers experienced, and the ability to overcome these obstacles vary in each person. This study was a literature review study focusing on adversity quotient in the field of education. This study reviewed several manuscripts that concentrated on research design, type of participants, and the critical role of adversity quotient in the field of education. A total of 18 articles were analyzed by exploring and reviewing manuscripts from trusted database journals, namely Scopus, Science Direct, and ERIC. This review explored three aspects of educational adversity quotient publications, including 1) the type of research design used in research related to adversity quotient in the field of education, 2) the types of participants chosen in research related to adversity quotient, and 3) the role of adversity quotient in education. Based on the results of manuscript reviews, adversity quotient research shows a great influence in the field of education. Research on adversity quotient shows that 1) descriptive and experimental research is the most commonly used design; 2) research participants in adversity quotient research are dominated by students, especially university students; 3) the role of adversity quotient is much shown in learning outcomes in the field of skills.</p>

Summary
The life of each person is never free from difficulties or obstacles that are different in each person. Phoolka (2012) and Hidayat (2017) suggested that adversity quotient is intelligence owned by people, to achieve success based on the response to the problems they face. According to Hastuti et al (2018) and Wardani and Mahmud (2019), adversity quotient is the ability to survive facing difficulties in life and efforts to solve them. Adversity quotient can be said as a person’s response to survive toward difficulties or problems in his efforts to achieve success by utilizing his potential. Adversity quotient is often used to determine job performance (Thi, 2007; & Tripathi, 2011), or job performance stress (Singh & Sharma, 2017)
