Psychometric Properties of the Subjective Wellbeing Assessment Scale—French Version (SWBAS-18F): A Study With Young Refugees and Internally Displaced People in Nigerien Refugee Camps

Abstract: The aim of our research was to identify an easy-to-administer instrument for evaluating wellbeing in an at-risk population of young internal displaced people and young refugees in sub-Saharan Africa ( N = 462). To this end, we adapted the French-language 17-item version of the Subjective Wellbeing Assessment Scale (SWBAS—French version) and evaluated its factor structure, using a combination of exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. We observed five underlying factors (positive functioni… Show more

“…The sum of the agreement levels indicated the perceptions of training and it was labeled as the Index of Confidence in Training. Finally, (step three) the model of measurement composed of two latent factors (personal growth in training and professional growth in training) was estimated by using confirmatory factor analysis ( [34]; see for details [35,36]). The results of the analysis (χ2 (35) = 113.6, p < 0.05, NFI = 0.936, NNFI = 0.954, CFI = 0.955, RMSEA = 0.070, and 90% CI = 0.055-0.084) supported the adoption of the model as a mean to assess teachers' confidence in training.…”
