The Brief Resilience Scale

The brief resilience scale is a simple, self-assessment tool that individuals can use to assess their own levels of resilience. 

                                                                                                                             TOTAL SCORE __________ 

This tool asks you to decide how much you agree or disagree with six statements. Each answer is allocated a number. Once all six statements have been assessed, total up your numbers. This summing up will give them an overall resilience score of between 6 and 30. 

The tool does not provide any specific guidance in relation to what different scores mean. All it says is that lower scores mean lower levels of resilience. 

The brief resilience scale benefits from being used over a period of time. As you take action and work on improving your resilience you should start to see changes in your score.
