Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to examine metric characteristics of the Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS, Sixbey, 2005) on Croatian sample. Parents of first grade students from secondary schools Ivan Svear in Ivanic Grad and The First high school in Zagreb were included in research (N = 220, 53.9% of mothers and 46.1% fathers). Factor analysis of shortened version of the instrument (54 items) point to six-factor solution that explains 48.89% of the variance: Family communication and problem solving, Making sense of adversity, Neighbors support, Family spirituality, Family connection and Security and support in the community. Obtained factor solution was similar to the original model (Sixbey, 2005). Reliability of four scales is satisfactory (α from .65 to .92), while two scales have lower reliability (Making sense of adversity, α =.58, Neighbors support, α =.60). Descriptive data indicate a negative asymmetry of results distribution on all factors, and high results
values that may indicate low sensitivity of the instrument. Recommendations for instrument improvement are discussed.
