  Baseline and 2 days (pre and post intervention)

• The Chinese version of the 14-item resilience scale

  The 14-item resilience scale (RS-14) was used to assess the degree of resilience and was a short version of the original resilience scale (RS). The RS-14 was a 14-item and single-factor structure instrument, comprising a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Examples of the items were, "I feel that I can handle many things at a time" and "I keep interested in things". The Chinese translation of the RS-14 was developed with a backtranslation procedure to ensure accuracy. Suitable internal consistency was suggested by a figure of .917 for the coefficient alpha (regarding the RS-14 of the original scale). Further, the original RS-14 was retested after three weeks, and the test-retest reliability of RS-14 was .736 (.595, .837).
