BERNAOLA UGARTE, Alejandro David et al. Validity and reliability of the Connor-Davidson Brief Resilience Scale (CD-RISC 10) in university students from Metropolitan Lima. Cienc. Psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.16, n.1, e2545.  Epub June 01, 2022. ISSN 1688-4094.  https://doi.org/10.22235/cp.v16i1.2545.

The purpose of the research was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Connor-Davidson Brief Resilience Scale (CD-RISC 10). The sample consisted of 345 university students of both genders from a private university, aged between 18 and 50 years from Metropolitan Lima. The tools used were the Brief Scale of Resilience CD-RISC 10, the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and the General Self-efficacy Scale (GSE). Regarding the results, for the construct validity the factor analysis was carried out, which showed that the unifactorial model explains 47 % of the total accumulated variance, then the proposed model was corroborated through the confirmatory factor analysis, which yielded optimal values of goodness setting. Convergent validity was established with the variable’s general self-efficacy (r = .664, p = .000) and divergent validity with perceived stress (r = -.402, p = .000). Reliability was established through the coefficients of Cronbach's Alpha (α = .827) and McDonald's Omega (Ω = .827). These results allow us to conclude that the tool presents evidence of validity as well as its scores are consistent.
