Yes, that should be fine.  I normally use a 10K pull-up, but 1K should
work.  You don't usually want to to tie the line directly to 5V - if
you want to program the chip in-system, the programmer must pull the
reset line low, and it can't do that if you tie the line directly to
5V without a resistor in between.
