Abstrakt

The article presents characteristics and measurement of a resiliency construct
and psychometric properties of Polish scale to measure resiliency in children
and adolescents – SPP-18. The scale consists of 18 items, rating on a 5-point rating
scale (from 0 – totally disagree to 4 – totally agree). In a sample comprised of 332
adolescents, aged 12-19 years (42,2% men and 57,8% women) 5-factor structure of the
scale was revealed, which explained 63,8% of total variance. The internal consistency
of the scale is satisfying, with Cronbach’s alpha for the scale = 0,82 (from 0,76 to 0,87
for particular factors). The 4-week test-retest stability was high (r = 0,78). Results of
SPP-18 correlate positively with extraversion, and negatively with neuroticism and
agreeableness. They also link with coping strategies: positively with active coping
and planning and negatively with behavioral disengagement, self-blame, denial and
turning to religion.
