In recent years, resilience has become a focus of research in the medical and behavioral sciences. The Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) was developed to assess the individual ability to recover from stress ("to bounce back") after experiencing adversities. The aim of the study was to validate the Czech and Slovak versions of the BRS.
A representative sample of the Czech and Slovak populations (N = 1800, mean age M = 46.6, SD = 17.4, 48.7% of men; N = 1018, mean age M = 46.2, SD = 16.6, 48.7% men) completed a survey assessing their health and well-being. Several confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) models of the BRS were compared to find the best fit. Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients of reliability were evaluated. Convergent validity was assessed by correlating resilience (BRS), physical and mental well-being (SF-8) and psychopathology symptoms (BSI-53). Differences in gender and age groups were appraised.
A single-factor model with method effects on the reverse items was evaluated to best fit the data in both the Czech and Slovak samples (χ(6) = 39.0, p < 0.001, CFI = 0.998, TLI = 0.995, RMSEA = 0.055, SRMR = 0.024; χ(6) = 23.9, p < 0.001, CFI = 0.998, TLI = 0.995, RMSEA = 0.054, SRMR = 0.009). The reliability was high in both samples (α = 0.80, ω = 0.85; α = 0.86, ω = 0.91). The BRS was positively associated with physical and mental well-being and negatively associated with somatization, depression and anxiety. In both countries, a lower BRS score was associated with higher age. Czech men reported significantly higher BRS scores than women. No significant difference was found in the mean BRS scores between the two countries.
This study provides evidence of good psychometric properties, reliability and validity of the Czech and Slovak adaptations of the BRS.
近年来，韧性已成为医学和行为科学研究的焦点。《简要韧性量表》（BRS）的开发旨在评估个体在经历逆境后从压力中恢复的能力（“反弹”）。本研究的目的是验证捷克语和斯洛伐克语版本的 BRS。
对捷克和斯洛伐克人群的代表性样本（N=1800，平均年龄 M=46.6，SD=17.4，48.7%为男性；N=1018，平均年龄 M=46.2，SD=16.6，48.7%为男性）进行了一项调查，评估他们的健康和幸福感。比较了几种 BRS 的验证性因素分析（CFA）模型，以找到最佳拟合度。评估了克朗巴赫的 alpha 和麦克唐纳的 omega 可靠性系数。通过相关分析评估了聚合效度，即韧性（BRS）、身体和心理健康（SF-8）和精神病理学症状（BSI-53）之间的相关性。评估了性别和年龄组之间的差异。
在捷克语和斯洛伐克语样本中，具有反向项目方法效应的单因素模型被评估为最适合数据（捷克语：χ(6)=39.0，p<0.001，CFI=0.998，TLI=0.995，RMSEA=0.055，SRMR=0.024；斯洛伐克语：χ(6)=23.9，p<0.001，CFI=0.998，TLI=0.995，RMSEA=0.054，SRMR=0.009）。两个样本的可靠性都很高（α=0.80，ω=0.85；α=0.86，ω=0.91）。BRS 与身体和心理健康呈正相关，与躯体化、抑郁和焦虑呈负相关。在两个国家，BRS 得分较低与年龄较大有关。捷克男性报告的 BRS 得分明显高于女性。两个国家的 BRS 平均得分没有显著差异。
本研究为捷克语和斯洛伐克语 BRS 改编版的良好心理测量特性、可靠性和有效性提供了证据。
