The Resilience Evaluation Scale (RES) is a new, free and short self-report questionnaire for measuring psychological resilience. This study aims to translate and assess the psychometric properties of the RES.
In the present methodological study, after the translation process, face and content validity were conducted through qualitative and quantitative methods. To determine the construct validity, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used, and for the reliability, Cronbach's α test and inter-counter coefficient test were calculated. Persian version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale was used to determine the convergent validity of the questionnaire.
Results show that the face and content validity of 9 items of RES were acceptable and they were all approved [Impact scores (IS) >1.5, S-CVI/Ave = 0.97, I-CVI = 0.93]; the Internal consistency of the scale was confirmed by the Cronbach's α coefficient (0.82) and McDonald's omega (0.83). The reliability of the scale also was confirmed by the Spearman's correlation coefficient and intra-group correlation coefficient (ICC), with results obtained above 0.8 for all items. The factor analysis identified two factors that accounted for about 56% of the variance. Also, the CFA model fitted well according to the results of the fitting indices (RMSEA = 0.084, CFI = 0.98, SRMR = 0.064, and TLI = 0.97). In addition, the convergent validity of the scale was equal to 0.65 ( < 0.001).
Development of a valid and reliable psychological resilience scale may bring great benefits to the Persian society. Our findings suggest that the Persian RES has good psychometric properties, and it may serve as a valuable instrument in research and clinical practice.
复原力评估量表（RES）是一种全新的、免费的简短自评问卷，用于测量心理复原力。本研究旨在翻译并评估RES的心理测量特性。
在本方法学研究中，翻译完成后，通过定性和定量方法进行了表面效度和内容效度评估。为确定结构效度，采用了探索性和验证性因素分析（CFA），为评估信度，计算了克朗巴哈α检验和组内相关系数检验。使用波斯语版的康纳-戴维森复原力量表来确定该问卷的收敛效度。
结果表明，RES的9个项目的表面效度和内容效度是可接受的，且均获认可[影响得分（IS）>1.5，S-CVI/Ave = 0.97，I-CVI = 0.93]；量表的内部一致性通过克朗巴哈α系数（0.82）和麦克唐纳ω系数（0.83）得到证实。量表的信度也通过斯皮尔曼相关系数和组内相关系数（ICC）得到证实，所有项目的结果均高于0.8。因素分析确定了两个因素，约占方差的56%。此外，根据拟合指数的结果，CFA模型拟合良好（RMSEA = 0.084，CFI = 0.98，SRMR = 0.064，TLI = 0.97）。此外，量表的收敛效度等于0.65（<0.001）。
开发一个有效且可靠的心理复原力量表可能会给波斯社会带来巨大益处。我们的研究结果表明，波斯语版RES具有良好的心理测量特性，它可能成为研究和临床实践中的一个有价值的工具。
