Sumario:The main objective of this work was to compare the validation of the resilience scale, used by Villegas and Zamudio (2006), with a new format of answers and a new sample of students. The instrument was a 34 item scale with a 10 response ranges in percentages, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.83, applied to 294 students (147 women and 149 men) from a Yucatan state middle school and produced the factors Self-esteem, morality, social support, independence, relationship, family support and optimism. For the purposes of the comparison, a quantitative and transectional design was applied to a sample of 250 students from the state school system of Oaxaca (111 women and 139 men). The instrument used was the same Resilience scale, of 34 items of Villegas and Zamudio (2006), but modifying its range of responses to a Likert format with five ranges of responses that were: 1: Nothing like me, 2: Little like me, 3: Something like me 4: Quite a bit like me, 5: Very similar to me. When analyzing the data of the new sample, it was observed that the internal consistency of the Resilience scale scored with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.87 and when the factor analysis was performed, the following factors were obtained: self-esteem, morality, social support, self-perception and independence. It was concluded that there is similarity between the dimensions obtained in this study, with respect to those reported by Villegas and Zamudio, (2006).
