Resilience describes the ability of someone to adapt to adverse life experiences by adjusting to demands with behavioral flexibility. When encountering crisis situations, resilient people typically spring back emotionally with increased strength and internal composure. Measuring resilience is important for assessing the ability of adolescents to respond to adverse situations. The objective of this study was to evaluate the psychometric performance of the Spanish version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) © for South America (CD-RISC-25) in a population of vulnerable Peruvian adolescents. This study used a cross-sectional design to measure sociodemographic variables and resilience. Participants were 451 adolescents living in a shelter in Lima, Perú. Face and content validity were established by expert panel, construct validity was evaluated with exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency was assessed with Cronbach's alpha. The analysis resulted in a four-dimensional model with 22 items explaining almost 27% of the variance with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.90. The dimensions included self-confidence and self-trust from previous experiences, internal resources to cope with difficult situations, personal competence and tenacity, and self-regulation with external resources. Two of the 3 items eliminated from the instrument were related to the original dimension "spirituality influences" which may have been incorrectly translated and adapted without equivalence of meaning for cross-cultural research. The CD-RISC-25 is not a stable multidimensional instrument for measuring resilience across the cultures and contexts of countries. However, the instrument appears to be stable for measuring resilience as a single dimension. For measuring resilience in the context of Peru, a four-dimensional model with 22 items was validated. Variations in the psychometric properties of translated instruments may result from not establishing the equivalence of meaning for each item before performing cross-cultural research. Researchers need to search for a more precise understanding of resilience as a universal concept transferable across borders and through translations.
心理韧性描述的是一个人通过以行为灵活性来适应需求，从而适应不良生活经历的能力。在遇到危机情况时，具有心理韧性的人通常会在情绪上更有力量、内心更加镇定地迅速恢复。测量心理韧性对于评估青少年应对不利情况的能力很重要。本研究的目的是评估西班牙语版的康纳-戴维森心理韧性量表（CD-RISC）©南美洲版（CD-RISC-25）在秘鲁弱势青少年群体中的心理测量学性能。本研究采用横断面设计来测量社会人口统计学变量和心理韧性。参与者是451名居住在秘鲁利马一个收容所的青少年。通过专家小组确定了表面效度和内容效度，通过探索性和验证性因素分析评估了结构效度，并用克朗巴赫α系数评估了内部一致性。分析得出了一个包含22个条目的四维模型，该模型解释了近27%的方差，克朗巴赫α系数为0.90。这些维度包括基于以往经历的自信和自我信任、应对困难情况的内部资源、个人能力和坚韧以及利用外部资源进行自我调节。从该量表中剔除的3个条目中有2个与原始维度“精神影响”相关，这可能是在跨文化研究中没有进行意义对等的情况下被错误翻译和改编的。CD-RISC-25在不同国家的文化和背景下并非一个稳定的多维心理韧性测量工具。然而，该量表作为单维测量心理韧性的工具似乎是稳定的。对于在秘鲁背景下测量心理韧性，一个包含22个条目的四维模型得到了验证。翻译后的量表心理测量学特性的差异可能是由于在进行跨文化研究之前没有为每个条目建立意义对等。研究人员需要更精确地理解心理韧性这一可跨越国界并通过翻译进行转换的通用概念。
