Abstract
Resilience is considered a very important concept in psychological research and clinical assessments. This research aimed to evaluate the psychometric features of the Psychological Resilience Scale (PRS) among. The research employed a descriptive and normative research methodology. The study population consisted of all adults with 25-50 years old residing in the province of Azarbayejan Sharghi. A sample of 313 individuals was selected using the convenience sampling method. After translating the scale and obtaining feedback from experts, the face and content validity of the scale was confirmed. Lisrel8 and SPSS25 software were used for the statistical analysis. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the two-factor structure of the scale had a good fit with the data in the sample. The internal consistency coefficients for the PRS were 0.73 for the first factor (self-efficacy) and 0.71 for the second factor (self-confidence). Overall, the findings of the present study suggest that the PRS is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring resilience. This tool can be utilized in both research and clinical settings to assess psychological resilience.
