Background: The family is one of the most important factors in the all-round development of the children. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between family communication patterns and adjustment with resiliency in children. 
Methods: This study was descriptive and correlational. The study population comprised all sixth-grade elementary school students in Ahvaz City, Iran in the 2016-2017 academic year. The study sample was selected by a multi-stage cluster sampling method. The revised family communication patterns instrument of Koerner and Fitzpatrick, Connor-Davidson resilience scale, and multidimensional adjustment scale were employed in this study. To analyze the data, the Pearson correlation and systematic regression were used. 
Results: In this study, conversation orientation with resiliency (r=0.22) and adjustment has a positive and significant relationship. Besides, the adjustment (β=0.26) was also a positive and significant predictor of the family communication pattern. Therefore, the results showed that conversation orientation (β=0.19) and resiliency (β=0.19) are the positive and significant predictors of the adjustment. Finally, the results showed that family communication patterns and adjustment were the best predictors of student resilience (P≤0.01). However, there was no significant relationship between resiliency and adjustment with an orientation of conformity (P≤0.01). 
Conclusion: Results suggested that predicting variables can increase resiliency and adjustment of students.
