Abstract
Abstract: This study aims to investigate the psychometric properties of the WRS-C (Work Resilience Scale – Chinese version) through two studies. In Study 1 (Sample 1: N = 463), we conducted an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and identified the two-factor solution representing work resilience after translating the Work Resilience Scale (WRS) into Chinese. In Study 2, the psychometric properties of the WRS-C were investigated in two samples (Sample 2: N = 477; Sample 3: N = 374). The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) confirms a two-factor structure. Furthermore, the WRS-C shows measurement invariance across groups by gender, age, job tenure, and education level. Furthermore, the results provide evidence for the convergent and concurrent validity of the WRS-C. In addition, its predictive validity has been demonstrated through its associations with mental health outcomes, performance outcomes, and attitude outcomes. Overall, the WRS-C is a reliable and valid instrument in the Chinese context, which can be utilized in future research and practice.
期刊介绍:
The main purpose of the EJPA is to present important articles which provide seminal information on both theoretical and applied developments in this field. Articles reporting the construction of new measures or an advancement of an existing measure are given priority. The journal is directed to practitioners as well as to academicians: The conviction of its editors is that the discipline of psychological assessment should, necessarily and firmly, be attached to the roots of psychological science, while going deeply into all the consequences of its applied, practice-oriented development.
