Brief Hardiness Questionnaire Test - Symptoms and Signs
This instrument is designed to provide a brief self-report assessment of psychological hardiness as it relates to functioning under stress. The Brief Hardiness Questionnaire consists of 12 items and typically requires about 3 minutes to complete.
Items ask respondents to rate statements reflecting attitudes and coping tendencies commonly associated with hardiness, such as perceived control, commitment, and approach to challenge. Scores may be used as a screening indicator of stress resilience and to inform discussion of coping resources; the Brief Hardiness Questionnaire should be interpreted in the context of other clinical information and the referral question.
