摘要：AbstractObjective:The aim of the present study was to test the reliability and validity of Farsi version of the Sense of Coherence 13-item scale (SOC; Antonovsky 1987) in Iranian sample.Methods:participants completed Farsi SOC 13-item scale and Hardiness 45-item scale (kobasa, Maddi, and Kahn, 1982; Bartone, 1991; Besharat, 2008). Data from a cross- sectional study with a sample of 375 undergraduate students, (137 males and 238 females), age 18-24, were analyzed.Results:Test of internal consistency of the SOC-13, revealed that all 13 items are highly correlated with total score. The Cronbach's alpha for the inventory was 0.77. The alpha for the males was 0.75, and for females was 0.78. The correlation between SOC 13-item scale and Hardiness 45-item scale was significant (r=0.54, p<0.01). A re-test after 6-8 weeks showed a significant correlation (r=0.66, p > 0.01) between test and re-test scores. Statistical significant correlation were observed between subscales score and total score (Meaningfulness r=0.76, Comprehensibility r=0.86, Manageability r=0.81). Factor analysis extracted four factors with an eigenvalue of greater than 1 that could explain 53.49% of the total variance.Conclusion:The results confirmed the reliability and validity of Sense of Coherence 13-item scale (Farsi version) in Iranian population.
