Resilience is one of the most important variables associated with adaptive ability. The resilience scale for the oldest-old age (RSO) has been designed to measure the resilience among the oldest-old people. Originally developed in Japan, this scale has not been used in China. The objective of this study was to translate the RSO into Chinese and investigate its validity and reliability among the community's oldest-old adults aged ≥80 years.
A total of 473 oldest-old people who came from communities were recruited by convenience sampling for the assessment of construct validity using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). In addition, internal consistency reliability, test-retest reliability, face validity, and content validity were used to evaluate the psychometric characteristics of RSO.
The RSO demonstrated good face validity and content validity. The content validity index of the Chinese version of the RSO was 0.890. Moreover, one factor was extracted by exploratory factor analysis, which accounted for 61.26% of the variance. The RSO had high internal consistency with a Cronbach's alpha = 0.927. The test-retest reliability was 0.785. The item-total correlations ranged from 0.752 to 0.832.
The results of the study indicate that the Chinese version of the RSO questionnaire has good reliability and validity and can be recommended for use by health and social service agencies as a method for assessing the resilience of the oldest-old in the community.
心理韧性是与适应能力相关的最重要变量之一。高龄老人心理韧性量表（RSO）旨在测量高龄老人的心理韧性。该量表最初在日本开发，尚未在中国使用。本研究的目的是将RSO翻译成中文，并调查其在社区中年龄≥80岁的高龄成年人中的有效性和可靠性。
通过便利抽样招募了473名来自社区的高龄老人，采用探索性因素分析（EFA）和验证性因素分析（CFA）评估结构效度。此外，还使用内部一致性信度、重测信度、表面效度和内容效度来评估RSO的心理测量学特征。
RSO表现出良好的表面效度和内容效度。RSO中文版的内容效度指数为0.890。此外，探索性因素分析提取了一个因素，该因素解释了61.26%的方差。RSO具有较高的内部一致性，Cronbach's alpha = 0.927。重测信度为0.785。项目与总分的相关性范围为0.752至0.832。
研究结果表明，RSO问卷中文版具有良好的信度和效度，可推荐健康和社会服务机构使用，作为评估社区高龄老人心理韧性的一种方法。
