In the first (n = 314), the majority female (56.4%), with an exploratory factor analysis being performed, which suggested a three-factorial structure, with adequate precision. The study 2 (n = 336), the majority female, who undergoing hemodialysis (46.4%). Confirmatory factor analysis corroborated the structure tetra-factorial (family communication and problem solving, maintaining a positive outlook, using social resources and economics, and family spirituality).
