Actually, no.

Spell Resistance only affects the chances of a spell working on you.

To beat spell resistance a caster must roll:

1d20 + Caster Level + Any Spell Penetration feats (2,4, or 6) >/= Target's SR

If they do, the spell goes through. Thus why spell resistance can eat spells.

There is a Magic Damage resistance trait, but it can only be put on items.
