Psychometric evaluations of the Resilience Scale for Adolescents (READ) have yielded inconsistent support for the original five-factor solution, with different modifications being proposed. The aim of the present article was to investigate the psychometric properties and factor structure of the READ using both confirmatory and exploratory methods, and to evaluate how the scale fits within the theoretical framework of resilience. Data stem from the population-based youth@hordaland-study of 9,596 adolescents from 16 to 19 years of age. Using confirmatory factor analysis, the original five-factor model yielded relatively poor fit. A better model fit was identified for a different five-factor structure using exploratory methods including two new personal factors measuring (a) Goal Orientation and (b) Self-Confidence. This division was supported by low secondary loadings and moderate correlations between the factors, and gender differences in the mean scores. Although the READ is a multidimensional measure that includes individual, family, and social factors related to the resilience process, some important aspects of resilience have not been included.
青少年复原力量表(READ)的心理测量评估对最初的五因素模型的支持并不一致,人们提出了不同的修正方案。本文的目的是使用验证性和探索性方法来研究READ的心理测量特性和因素结构,并评估该量表如何符合复原力的理论框架。数据来自基于人口的霍达兰青少年研究,该研究涉及9596名16至19岁的青少年。使用验证性因素分析,最初的五因素模型拟合度相对较差。通过探索性方法确定了一个不同的五因素结构的更好模型拟合,该方法包括两个新的个人因素,分别测量(a)目标导向和(b)自信。这种划分得到了低二级负荷、因素之间适度相关性以及平均分性别差异的支持。尽管READ是一种多维测量方法,包括与复原力过程相关的个人、家庭和社会因素,但复原力的一些重要方面尚未包括在内。
