New resilience instrument for family caregivers in cancer: a multidimensional item response theory analysis

Abstract Objective Resilience instruments specific to family caregivers (FCs) in cancer are limited. This study was designed to validate the 10-item Resilience Scale Specific to Cancer (RS-SC-10) in FCs using multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) analysis. Methods 382 FCs were enrolled from B...
