Validation of the Slovenian versions of Child and Youth Resilience Measure-12 and Brief Resilience Scale among youth.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Resilience is the ability to adapt positively in the face of adversity, trauma, or significant stress and is a vital component of maintaining mental health and well-being. It is particularly shaped in young adulthood by navigating unique stressors, such as changes in living arrangements, relationships, and education. However, much of the existing research focuses on children or older adults, leaving a gap in our knowledge regarding resilience in young adulthood. Moreover, the existing resilience scales are seldom validated outside of English-speaking contexts. With this paper, we turn attention to validating two resilience measures, Child and Youth Resilience Measure-12 (CYRM-12) and Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), in Slovenian language, using a sample of young adults.
