Abstract
Using two independent samples of Army soldiers-in-training, this study explores the measurement of resilience in the Army Study to Assess Risk and Resilience among Servicemembers (Army STARRS) New Soldier Study Component (NSS). Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify a three-factor structure of resilience within the Army STARRS. Confirmatory factor analysis was then used to confirm the three-factor structure, and then internal reliability was assessed. Determination of how resilience can be measured within the Army STARRS NSS will aid scholars who wish to examine resilience among Army soldiers-in-training.
