Abstract

<p>Objectives: This study aimed to determine the reliability and validity of the Bidimensional Resilience Scale (BRS) among nursing students and nurses.</p><p>Methods: A cross-sectional study using a self-administered questionnaire was conducted on 246 students in a nursing school and 881 nurses in 4 hospitals in Japan. The questionnaire included demographics, the BRS, and the Adolescent Resilience Scale (ARS). Analyses included the Cronbach’s alpha, correlation coefficient, partial correlation coefficient, and higher-order factor analysis using a covariance structure analysis.</p><p>Results: 230 nursing students (response rate: 93.5%) and 742 nurses (84.2%) replied. The result of the higher-order factor analysis of the BRS indicated a two-dimensional structure with two scales (innate and acquired resilience scales) and seven factors. In the revised model, the factor named “control” that was earlier included in innate resilience scale was moved to the acquired resilience scale, following which, no remarkable higher goodness of fit was obtained. The Cronbach’s alpha for the two scales were 0.79–0.80, and those for the 7 factors were 0.49–0.85. The BRS score correlated with ARS score.</p><p>Conclusions: The reliability and validity of the BRS were confirmed on a sample of nursing students and nurses. However, the findings on some factors need to be interpreted with caution.</p>
