Psychometric properties of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale 10 among low-income, African American men.

Abstract

The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale 10 (CD-RISC 10; Campbell-Sills & Stein, 2007) is a self-report measure of resilience that has been found to provide reliable and valid scores among U.S. and international samples, although its psychometric properties have not been validated among African Americans. This study used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling to examine the psychometric properties of the CD-RISC 10 among a community sample of 127 low-income, African American men. Participants completed measures of resilience, spirituality, and psychological distress. CFA results supported the unidimensional factor structure of the CD-RISC 10. The CD-RISC 10 scores also evidenced construct validity by being related to theoretically relevant constructs (i.e., spirituality and psychological distress). Satisfactory internal consistency score reliability was demonstrated. These results support the validity of the CD-RISC 10 scores in a sample of low-income, African American men.
