What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Child and Youth Psychological Resilience Scale
The short formula of the scale consisting of 12 items was made by Ungar, Liebenberg, and LeBlanc (2013) (Liebenberg et al., 2013). The popular heights of children and young youth are seen as .39 and .84 from the inside. According to the five-point Likert scale in the scale, it is answered as "Describes me (5)" and "Does not describe me at all (1)". A high score indicates high robustness. The Turkish adaptation of the scale and its reliability-validity study were performed by Arslan (2015). A minimum of 12 points and a maximum of 60 points can be obtained from the scale. High score values indicate a high level of resilience.The factor loads of twelve items of the Child and Adolescent Resilience Scale ranged from .54 to .81. This situation is important in terms of showing the high level of representativeness power of the items in the scale.
Measured: 10 weeks
Coping Scale for Adolescents
The validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Coping Scale for Adolescents developed by Spirito, Stark and Williams (1988) was determined by Bedel et al. He did it in 2014.The adolescent form used ten coping strategies (social distancing, distraction, wishful thinking, cognitive restructuring, It consists of 11 items measuring social support, problem solving, self-criticism, emotion regulation, withdrawal, and blaming others. Ratings are made on a four-point scale: Never (0), Sometimes (1), Often (2), and Always (3). Scale scoring, Active Coping: 3, 6, 8, 10 Avoidant Coping: 1, 2, 9, 11 Negative Coping: 4, 5, 7. For Scale Evaluation, Each subscale score is obtained by summing the related items in order. The possible scores range from 0-12 for Active coping and Avoidant coping, and 0-9 for Negative coping.
Higher scores indicate that the relevant coping approach is used more frequently.
Measured: 10 weeks
