Abstract:
This study describes the adaptation of the Child and Youth Resilience Measure-Revised
(CYRM-R) for use in Indonesia. The process of adaptation involved several steps. The
first step was translating and back-translating the measurement. The next step was
conducting focus groups to explore the legibility of the translated measure. After this,
the validity and the reliability of the translated version was tested, as well as an
exploration of data. Samples were130 elementary school children (57.7% female) aged
10-13. Data were collected in 2 randomly chosen elementary schools in Kota Bandung.
The analyses confirmed the validity and reliability of the measure (alpha = .902). The
results indicated that the CYRM-R had been adapted successfully and is a robust
measure for exploring the social-ecological resilience of children and youth in Indonesia.
The CYRM-R can be used for research and practice in the Indonesian context.
