Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the present study was to adapt the Coping Strategies Inventory (CSI) to the Spanish setting. This need is justified on the one hand by the shortage and limitations of the instruments available in our language and, on the other, by the excellent potentialities that the CSI offers. METHOD: It was translated and applied to a sample of 337 adults, with diverse demographic characteristics, recruited from different teaching activities by the authors in the province of Seville (Spain). RESULTS: The results showed excellent psychometric properties surpassing those of the original study: eight factors accounted for 61 % of variance with only 40 items (as opposed to the 72 that accounted for 47% in the original study) and obtained Alpha coefficients between 0.63 and 0.89. The convergent validity was verified using intercorrelations between scales, correlations with personality dispositions (NEOFFI) and with the coping efficacy. DISCUSSION: The CSI was a valid and reliable measure of coping strategies used in many stressful situations.
