Psychometric properties of 14-item Resilience Scale in older adults
This instrumental research aimed to analyze the psychometric properties of the 14-item Resilience Scale in Spanish (RS-14) in a Mexican population aged 60 years and over. Two hundred twenty participants (126 women and 94 men), aged between 60 and 88 years (M=67.48; SD=5.34), were tested by convenien...

| Sumario: | This instrumental research aimed to analyze the psychometric properties of the 14-item Resilience Scale in Spanish (RS-14) in a Mexican population aged 60 years and over. Two hundred twenty participants (126 women and 94 men), aged between 60 and 88 years (M=67.48; SD=5.34), were tested by convenience sampling. The study instrument was the Spanish version of the Resilience Scale (ER-14) by Sánchez-Teruel and Robles-Bello. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis showed that the scale presented an adequate fit with a smaller number of items (11) and two factors; however, the internal consistency of the second factor was inadequate, and the factorial invariance showed that the solution found was not invariant according to sex. However, the results suggest that the scale with 11 items and two factors (personal competence and acceptance of oneself and life) presents adequate psychometric properties to measure resilience in Mexican people aged 60 years and over. It suggested analyzing the psychometric properties of the factorial solution found in greater depth and exhaustiveness. |
