The Resilience Scale for Adolescents (READ) is a highly rated scale for measuring protective factors of resilience. Even though the READ has been validated in several different cultural samples, no studies have validated the READ across samples in German from Switzerland and Germany. The purpose of this study was to explore the construct validity of the German READ version in two samples from two different countries and to test the measurement invariance between those two samples. A German sample ( = 321, = 12.74, = 0.77) and a German-speaking Swiss sample ( = 349, = 12.67, = 0.69) of seventh graders completed the READ, Hopkins Symptom Checklist (HSCL-25), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSE), General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWL). The expected negative correlations between READ and HSCL-25 and the positive correlations between RSE, self-efficacy, and SWL were supported. Furthermore, the results of the measurement invariance demonstrated that the originally proposed five-dimensional structure is equal in the German and Swiss samples, and it can be assumed that the same construct was assessed by excluding one item. The five-factor, 27-item solution is a valid and reliable self-report measure of protective factors between two German-speaking samples.
青少年复原力量表(READ)是一个用于测量复原力保护因素的高评分量表。尽管READ已在多个不同文化样本中得到验证,但尚无研究在来自瑞士和德国的德语样本中对其进行跨样本验证。本研究的目的是探讨德语版READ在来自两个不同国家的两个样本中的结构效度,并检验这两个样本之间的测量不变性。一个由七年级学生组成的德国样本(n = 321,M = 12.74,SD = 0.77)和一个讲德语的瑞士样本(n = 349,M = 12.67,SD = 0.69)完成了READ、霍普金斯症状清单(HSCL - 25)、罗森伯格自尊量表(RSE)、一般自我效能量表和生活满意度量表(SWL)。READ与HSCL - 25之间预期的负相关以及RSE、自我效能感和SWL之间的正相关得到了支持。此外,测量不变性的结果表明,最初提出的五维结构在德国和瑞士样本中是等同的,并且可以假设通过排除一个项目评估了相同的结构。这个五因素、27个条目的量表是一种有效且可靠的自我报告测量工具,可用于测量两个讲德语样本之间的保护因素。
