Abstract

ABSTRACT The Family Resilience Questionnaire was developed to assess Walsh’s theoretical model in understanding and fostering resilience in families facing adversity .To provide a useful assessment tool for use in Arab cultures, this study aimed at confirming the validity and factor structure of the Arabic translation of the Walsh Family Resilience Questionnaire through confirmatory factor analysis. The study was conducted on a sample of 380 individuals in families in Iraq and Algeria. According to the results of the analysis, the model has good matching and there were no differences in the dimensions of family resilience. Comparison of subjects in Iraq and Algeria found similar ratings for all sub-dimensions except for higher ratings for Iraqi families on three processes: meaning-making of adversity, clear, consistent messages, and collaborative problem-solving. The results support that the WFRQ is valid for use in Algeria and Iraq, and the results were discussed in the light of social context variables.

阿拉伯语版沃尔什家庭弹性问卷:阿尔及利亚和伊拉克家庭弹性评估的验证性因素分析

《家庭弹性问卷》旨在评估沃尔什的理论模型在理解和培养逆境家庭弹性方面的作用。本研究旨在通过验证性因素分析，验证沃尔什家庭弹性问卷阿拉伯语译本的效度和因素结构，为阿拉伯文化提供一个有用的评估工具。这项研究是在伊拉克和阿尔及利亚的380个家庭中进行的。分析结果表明，模型具有较好的匹配性，家庭弹性各维度均无差异。比较伊拉克和阿尔及利亚的受试者发现，除了伊拉克家庭在逆境的意义创造、清晰、一致的信息和协作解决问题这三个过程上的评分更高外，所有子维度的评分都相似。结果支持WFRQ在阿尔及利亚和伊拉克的应用是有效的，并从社会背景变量的角度对结果进行了讨论。
