Psychometric properties of the Dutch Revised Sense of Coherence Scale in a Firefighter Sample
Background : Sense of coherence (SOC) has been associated with resilience to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and seems to be a promising factor in primary prevention of PTSD in high risk populations. Objective : The present study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Dutch revised Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC-R) in a sample of N = 527 firefighters. Method : To investigate the internal structure of this 13-item scale, a Mokken scale analysis and an exploratory factor analysis were conducted (i.e., parallel analysis based on MRFA). Results : The combined results of these analyses su... Mehr ...

/ • Psychometric evaluation increases the valid use of measures. • A total score based on 10 items provides the best Dutch SOC-R measurement. • The Dutch SOC-R has the potential to be an interesting measure that can be used to further understand the development of PTSD in high-risk samples |
