Hypothesis
The study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Spanish version of the 10-item CD-RISC in young adults.
Conclusion
The Spanish version of the 10-item CD-RISC is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring resilience in young adults.
Supporting Evidence
- The Cronbach α coefficient was 0.85, indicating good internal consistency.
- The test-retest reliability was estimated with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.71.
- The study confirmed a single factor structure underlying the resilience construct.
Takeaway
This study shows that a questionnaire can help us understand how resilient young adults are, and the Spanish version works well.
Methodology
A cross-sectional observational study was conducted with university students, using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis to evaluate the scale's properties.
Limitations
The study's cross-sectional design limits the ability to establish predictive validity, and the sample was limited to university students.
Participant Demographics
Participants were first-year university students aged 18 to 30 years, with 73.86% being women.
