ABSTRACT
Background. The objective of the study was the adaptation and evaluation of the psychometric properties of the Interpersonal Social Support Scale version for students (ISEL-48v.Coll.: Interpersonal Support Evaluation List College Version).
Material and methods. The validation of the instrument was performed according to methodological standards, and statistical validation covered the assessment of criterion and construct validity, and reliability of the scale. The study was conducted with the use of the test-retest method, and a package of research instruments was applied, including, apart from the ISEL-48v.Coll., the PSS-14, HADS and SOC-29. The validation sample covered a group of 167 nursing students for the test and 115 for the retest.
Results. Reliability of the ISEL-48 v. Coll. as evaluated by Cronbach’s alpha was 0.88, and for the subscales, it ranged from 0.82 to 0.69. The stability of results determined by the correlation in test-retest analysis ranged within 0.76 – 0.61 (p<0.001 and p<0.01).
Conclusions. The analysis of results shows that the adopted ISEL-48v.Coll. is an instrument possessing satisfying psychometric properties.
