Nursing students and professionals are exposed to highly stressful clinical situations. However, when confronted with stress, which is exacerbated by academic and professional situations, there is a great disparity between those who do not know how to respond suitably to the demands from patients or teachers due to a lack of competence and personal resistance, and those who are more resilient and develop a greater range of strengths. This research aims to analyse the validity and psychometric characteristics of a questionnaire on resilience adapted to Spanish nursing bachelor's degree students. The participants were 434 undergraduate nursing students from the province of Valencia (Spain) between 17 and 54 years of age (Mean, M = 21; Standard Deviation, SD = 0.320), 104 of whom were men (24%) and 330 women (76%). A cross-sectional group evaluation was carried out in the university itself, adhering to the ethical standards of the Declaration of Helsinki. Based on the descriptive, factorial, exploratory and confirmatory analyses, it was possible to confirm the suitability of the questionnaire and its adaptation to nursing students. The model is thus suitable for evaluating the population under study. Furthermore, there are statistically significant differences depending on age and gender. The results show that the questionnaire analysed is suited to evaluating resilience among Spanish nursing students, thereby justifying the adaptation of a scale of this nature to foster resilience among nursing students and nurses in professional life, who are exposed to critical situations with patients' suffering, deterioration or death. Our study highlights important practical implications: Spanish nursing studies involve theory and practice, but students and nurses in professional life have to confront critical situations of patients' suffering, deterioration, or death. These situations cause stress and feelings of impotence that may lead to chronic stress and even suicidal thoughts.
护理专业的学生和专业人员经常会遇到高度紧张的临床情况。然而，当他们面对压力时，由于缺乏能力和个人抵抗力，有些人不知道如何适当地应对患者或教师的要求，而另一些人则更有弹性，培养出更多的优势。本研究旨在分析适应西班牙护理学士学位学生的韧性问卷的有效性和心理计量学特征。参与者是来自瓦伦西亚省（西班牙）的 434 名本科护理学生，年龄在 17 至 54 岁之间（均值，M=21；标准差，SD=0.320），其中 104 名是男性（24%），330 名是女性（76%）。在大学内部进行了横断面组评估，遵循《赫尔辛基宣言》的伦理标准。基于描述性、因子、探索性和验证性分析，能够确认问卷的适宜性及其对护理学生的适应性。因此，该模型适合评估研究人群。此外，还存在与年龄和性别相关的统计显著差异。研究结果表明，所分析的问卷适合评估西班牙护理学生的韧性，从而证明了适应这种性质的量表来培养护理学生和护士在职业生活中的韧性是合理的，因为他们在面对患者的痛苦、恶化或死亡等关键情况时会感到压力和无能为力。我们的研究强调了重要的实际意义：西班牙的护理研究涉及理论和实践，但学生和护士在职业生活中必须面对患者痛苦、恶化或死亡的关键情况。这些情况会导致压力和无力感，可能导致慢性压力甚至自杀念头。
