There is a lack of Polish-language assessment instruments measuring resilience in preschool children. One of the most comprehensive instruments is the Devereux Early Childhood Assessment (DECA): a parent- or teacher-report instrument that measures children's protective and risk factors. It is used to guide resilience training, and to screen for behavioral problems. We validated the Polish adaptation of DECA among parents and teachers of 526 preschool children aged 2–5 years. The DECA scale showed very good internal reliability with Cronbach's ɑs in the .76–.94 range and decent criterion validity, in terms of correlations with the the Emotionality Activity and Sociability Scale for Children, Locus of Control Scale in Preschoolers and Social Development Scales. A confirmatory factor analysis of the three-factor model with weighted least square mean and variance adjusted estimation yielded satisfactory fit. Results thus indicate that the Polish version of the DECA scale may be used to assess resilience in children.

早期筛查保护性和风险因素——德弗罗早期儿童评估的波兰改编

缺乏衡量学龄前儿童适应能力的波兰语评估工具。最全面的工具之一是 Devereux 幼儿评估 (DECA)：一种衡量儿童保护和风险因素的家长或教师报告工具。它用于指导恢复力训练，并筛查行为问题。我们在 526 名 2-5 岁学龄前儿童的父母和老师中验证了 DECA 的波兰适应性。DECA 量表在 Cronbach's ɑ在与儿童情绪活动和社交量表、学龄前儿童的控制点量表和社会发展量表的相关性方面，s 在 0.76-.94 范围内，并且具有良好的标准效度。加权最小二乘均值和方差调整估计的三因素模型的验证性因素分析产生了令人满意的拟合。因此，结果表明 DECA 量表的波兰语版本可用于评估儿童的适应能力。
