本研究探讨了ER 89-R，一个简短的自我报告量表，测量自我弹性与主观自我评价的潜在结构的跨文化的普遍性。首先，我们调查了三种西方文化中量表的测量不变性，即意大利（n = 1，020），西班牙（n = 452）和美国（n = 808）。接下来，我们研究了ER 89-R量表与几种调整和失调措施的相关性。多组验证性因素分析提供了证据的部分结构，度量，标量不变性横跨意大利，西班牙和美国。总体而言，除一些例外情况外，各国和各性别之间的相关性模式是稳定的。正如预期的那样，更高水平的自我复原力与大五人格的积极极性密切相关。此外，在每个国家，自我复原力与心理健康呈正相关，在西班牙和意大利，自我复原力与抑郁呈负相关，但在美国则不然。根据这些结果，ER 89-R量表的潜在的有用性和适用性的先进性和讨论。
The present study examined the crosscultural generalizability of the latent structure of the ER89-R, a brief self-report scale that measures ego-resiliency with subjective self-ratings. First, we investigated the measurement invariance of the scale across three Western cultures, namely, Italy (n = 1,020), Spain (n = 452), and the United States (n = 808). Next, we examined the correlations of the ER89-R scale with several measures of adjustment and maladjustment. Multigroup confirmatory factor analysis provided evidence of partial configural, metric, and scalar invariance across Italy, Spain, and the United States. Overall, the correlation patterns were stable across countries and sex, with some exceptions. As expected, higher levels of ego-resiliency were strongly and consistently associated with the positive poles of the Big Five. Moreover, ego-resiliency showed a positive correlation with psychological well-being in each country, and negative relations with depression in Spain and Italy, but not in the United States. In light of these results, the potential usefulness and applicability of the ER89-R scale are advanced and discussed.
