Abstract

Introduction: Resilience in adolescence is related to the ability to solve the problem of identity in contexts where it does not have the conditions to be built in a positive way.
Objective: To design an instrument to assess resilience in adolescents from 15 to 19 years of age.
Method: Instrumental research, at the Martín Dihigo Pre-University Institute in Cienfuegos, from March to September 2022. Non-probabilistic sampling (n= 450). Content validity was carried out through expert criteria, construct validity from factorial analysis and criterion validity through correlation with the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Reliability was carried out through internal consistency, and temporal stability through test-retest.
Results: The instrument presents content validity. The factorial analysis yielded 7 factors which explain 64.8% of the variance. The correlation of the instrument with the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale was 0.333 (p< 0.01). A global Cronbach's alpha a= 0.839 was obtained; temporal stability was demonstrated.
Conclusions: The Cuban Adolescent Resilience Scale has adequate validity and reliability criteria that justify its application in the population of Cuban adolescents.
