Abstract

Background: Resilience is a measure of the ability to cope with stress and the accurate measurement of it is critical. This study aimed to translate and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale in Iranian adolescents during the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, after the scale translation, the content and construct validity were assessed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Moreover, internal consistency, composite reliability, and invariance measurement were evaluated.Results: The content validity ratio was greater than 0.49, and the modified kappa coefficient for all items was higher than 0.6. With exploratory factor analysis, two factors were extracted consisting of 16 items and explaining 43% of the total variance. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated a good fit for the model. Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability for both factors were greater than 0.7. Although there is no significant difference (p = 0.09) in the average resilience of adolescents in different provinces, boys (42.64 ± 10.90) had a significantly (p < 0.001) higher resilience score than girls (40.10 ± 11.92).Conclusion: The study results showed that the Persian 16-item version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale has acceptable reliability and validity in the Iranian adolescent population.

2019冠状病毒病大流行期间伊朗青少年的心理弹性:康纳-戴维森心理弹性量表的心理测量学评估

背景:弹性是对应对压力能力的一种衡量，准确测量它是至关重要的。本研究旨在翻译和评估冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行期间伊朗青少年康纳-戴维森弹性量表的心理测量特性。方法:在横断面研究中，量表翻译完成后，采用探索性因子分析和验证性因子分析对量表内容和构念效度进行评估。此外，对内部一致性、复合信度和不变性测量进行了评估。结果:内容效度比均大于0.49，修正kappa系数均大于0.6。通过探索性因子分析，提取出两个因子，共16项，解释总方差的43%。验证性因子分析结果表明，模型拟合良好。两个因素的Cronbach's α信度和复合信度均大于0.7。各省青少年心理弹性平均得分差异无统计学意义(p = 0.09)，但男生(42.64±10.90)显著高于女生(40.10±11.92)(p < 0.001)。结论:研究结果表明，波斯语版的康纳-戴维森心理弹性量表在伊朗青少年人群中具有可接受的信度和效度。
