本研究的目的是检验Wagnild和Young(1993)最初用英语编制的韧性量表(RS)的西班牙语译本的信度和效度。一组双语、双文化翻译员参与了翻译过程,以提高西班牙语翻译的语言准确性和文化适宜性。作为参与这项更大规模研究的315名墨西哥裔女性的便利样本的一部分,这项分析使用了147名更喜欢用西班牙语阅读和写作的女性的数据。英文版RS由17个条目的“个人能力”子量表和8个条目的“自我与生活接受”子量表组成,共25个条目。然而,有两个项目的总负载量较低,并被移除以形成修改后的23个项目的RS。探索性主成分因子分析、VARIMAX旋转和随后的拟合优度指数对于单因素解或双因素解是否合适是矛盾的,但卡方差检验清楚地表明,西班牙版的双因素解在解释方差方面比单因素解更有用。内部一致性信度用Cronbach‘sα(α=0.93)进行估计,该信度对于23个条目RS及其分量表是可接受的。心理弹性与生活满意度呈显著正相关(r=0.001.36;p<0.0 1),与抑郁症状呈显著负相关(r=-0.2 9;p<0.0 1)。这一分析最终支持了修改后的23项西班牙翻译的RS及其分量表在美国城市低收入墨西哥裔妇女样本中的适当性。
The purpose of this study is to test the reliability and validity of a Spanish translation of the Resilience Scale (RS), which was originally created in English by Wagnild and Young (1993). A team of bilingual, bicultural translators participated in the translation process to enhance the linguistic accuracy and cultural appropriateness of the Spanish translation. As part of the convenience sample of 315 women of Mexican descent who participated in the larger study, data from 147 women who preferred to read and write in Spanish were used in this analysis. The English version of the RS consists of a 17-item "Personal Competence" subscale and an 8-item "Acceptance of Self and Life" subscale for a total of 25 items. However, two items had low item-total loadings and were removed to form a modified 23-item RS. The exploratory principal components factor analysis, varimax rotation, and subsequent goodness of fit indices were ambivalent on whether a one or two-factor solution was appropriate, but the chi-square difference test clearly demonstrated that the two-factor solution of the Spanish version was more useful in explaining variance than a one-factor solution. Internal consistency reliability was estimated with Cronbach's alpha (alpha = 0.93) which was acceptable for the 23-item RS as well as its subscales. Construct validity was demonstrated by a significant positive correlation between resilience and life satisfaction (r = 0.36; p < 0.001), and a significant negative correlation between resilience and depressive symptoms (r = -0.29; p < 0.01). This analysis ultimately supports the appropriateness of the modified 23-item Spanish translation of the RS and its subscales in a sample of urban, low-income women of Mexican descent in the U.S.
