Abstract Objective The Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (BSES-SF) is a widely used instrument that measures breastfeeding self-efficacy. This study aimed to examine the reliability and validity of the Persian version of BSES-SF in Iranian mothers. Results The English version of BSES-SF was translated into Persian using the standard forward–backward translation procedure. No changes (i.e., neither delete nor rephrase the items) were made to the BSES-SF items. The mean BSES-SF total score was 50.80 ± 8.91. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for internal consistency for the BSES-SF was 0.910. The confirmatory factor analysis results provided evidence for unidimensionality of the scale (χ2/df = 4.42; CFI = 0.96; NFI = 0.95; IFI = 0.96; RMSEA = 0.095 and SRMR = 0.054). The divergent validity of the BSES-SF was proved via a significant negative correlation with scores of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (r = − 0.273, P < 0.001). In sum, the Persian version of the BSES-SF is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring breastfeeding self-efficacy in Iranian mothers. Trial registration number This was a cross-sectional study (not clinical trial).

Stress Coping Strategies

Background / Objective: The study establishes the psychometric properties of the Spanish adaptation of the abbreviated version of the Coping Strategies Inventory (CSI-SF) published by Addison et al. (2007). The test uses a two-axis model to classify coping strategies (commitment and avoidance) and objective categories of coping (problem-focused and emotion-focused). Method: 940 people participated (62.87% women; 37.12% men) aged between 18 and 66 years (x̄ = 33.2; dt = 12.01). An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were carried out, as well as Pearson's correlation and Cronbach's Alpha to examine the reliability and validity of the Spanish adaptation of the CSI-SF. Results: Internal consistency analysis revealed high reliability for all scales, and all adjustment indexes used to examine the CSI-SF Spanish version provided support for its use as an adequate measure of stress coping strategies. Discussion/Conclusions: The CSI-SF scale Spanish version is a test that provides a quick and efficient diagnosis of the coping strategies used in the face of stress in different settings. Antecedentes/Objetivo: El estudio establece las propiedades psicométricas de la adaptación española de la versión abreviada del Inventario de Estrategias de Afrontamiento (CSI-SF) publicado por Addison et al. (2007). La prueba utiliza un modelo de dos ejes para clasificar las estrategias de afrontamiento (de compromiso y de evitación) y las categorías objetivas del afrontamiento (centrada en el problema y centrada en la emoción). Método: Participaron 940 personas (62.87% mujeres; 37.12% hombres) divididas en dos submuestras. Se realizó un análisis factorial exploratorio (AFE) y un análisis factorial confirmatorio (AFC), así mismo la correlación de Pearson y el Alfa de Cronbach para examinar la fiabilidad y validez de la adaptación al español del CSI-SF. Resultados: El análisis de consistencia interna reveló una alta fiabilidad para todas las escalas (EFE = .890, PFE = .836. PFD = .767, EFD = .934), y todos los índices de ajuste utilizados para examinar el CSI-SF versión española proporcionaron soporte para su uso como una medida adecuada de las estrategias de afrontamiento del estrés. Discusión/Conclusión: La escala CSI-SF versión española es una prueba que proporciona un diagnóstico rápido y eficiente cuyos factores explican el 62.79% de la varianza común total de las estrategias de afrontamiento que se emplean frente a la situación de estrés en distintos ámbitos.

Although there exist many psychological measures in the English language, few of these clinical and research instruments have been translated into French and subsequently validated. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate L'Échelle de Solitude Sociale et Émotionnelle (l'ÉSSÉ). L'ÉSSÉ is a French translation of the short form of the Social and Emotional Loneliness Scale for Adults (SELSA-S; DiTommaso, Brannen, & Best, 2004; DiTommaso & Spinner, 1993). The SELSA is a multidimensional scale which measures the social and emotional components derived from Weiss' (1973) typology of loneliness. A total of 252 French-speaking individuals, aged between 17 and 79 years, completed the new measure. Reliability and validity assessment indicated that l'ÉSSÉ displays excellent psychometric properties.

Abstract.TEACHER SELF-EFFICACY AND PERSONAL STRENGTHS AND VIRTUES IN TEACHERS FROM DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.The aim of this research it to analyze the relationship between perceived teacher efficacy and personal strengths and virtues. For it, 564 teachers from Dominican Republic took part in the study, 29.6% males and 70.4% females, mean age of 39.72 years (SD = 8.09), and an average teaching experience of 15.67 years (SD = 3.83). Teachers developed their professional activity in 18 provinces of the 32 that integrate Dominican Republic. Three instruments were used for data collection: the Teacher Efficacy Scale (Teacher Efficacy Scale-Short Form), the Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale (Teacher’s Sense of Efficacy Scale-Short Form), and the Personal Strengths Questionnaire VIA (Values in Action Inventory of Strengths: VIA-IS). The psychometric characteristics of the instruments (reliability and validity) were evaluated. The results obtained through the analysis of correlation revealed a positive relationship between the different subscales of the two tests used to evaluate teacher self-efficacy as well as between teacher self-efficacy and the personal strengths and virtues of teachers. The highest correlations were found with the personal strengths of Wisdom and Knowledge, on the one hand, and Humanity, on the other. The need to incorporate in the training, initial and permanent, the work of strengths and personal virtues as the basis of development and personal and professional effectiveness is discussed.Keywords: teacher efficacy, teacher self-efficacy, personal strengths and virtues, Dominican RepublicResumen.El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar la relación entre la percepción de eficacia docente y las fortalezas y virtudes personales en docentes dominicanos. Para ello, participaron 564 docentes de educación infantil y primaria de República Dominicana, 29.6% hombres y 70.4% mujeres, con una edad media de 39.72 años (DT = 8.09) y una media de experiencia profesional de 15.67 años (DT = 3.83). Los docentes desarrollaban su actividad profesional en 18 provincias de las 32 que componen República Dominicana. Se emplearon tres instrumentos de evaluación: la Escala de Eficacia Docente (Teacher Efficacy Scale, Short Form), la Escala de Autoeficacia Docente (Teacher’s Sense of Efficacy Scale-Short Form) y el Cuestionario VIA de Fortalezas Personales (Values in Action Inventory of Strengths: VIA-IS). Se evaluaron las características psicométricas de los instrumentos (fiabilidad y validez). Los resultados obtenidos a través del análisis de correlación pusieron de manifiesto una relación positiva entre las distintas subescalas de las dos pruebas empleadas para evaluar la autoeficacia docente así como entre la autoeficacia docente y las fortalezas y virtudes personales del profesorado. Las correlaciones más altas se encontraron con las fortalezas personales de Sabiduría y conocimiento, por una parte, y Humanidad, por otra. Se discute la necesidad de incorporar en la formación, tanto inicial como permanente, el trabajo de las fortalezas y virtudes personales como base del desarrollo y efectividad personal y profesional.Palabras clave: eficacia docente, autoeficacia docente, fortalezas y virtudes personales, República Dominicana
