Article Synopsis
- Two studies were conducted to assess the Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS) for measuring forgiveness in Spanish, addressing a lack of suitable instruments in this language.
- The first study with 203 students showed discrepancies between the factors identified and the original HFS structure, prompting further research.
- The second study, involving 512 participants, confirmed that a reduced eight-item version of the HFS is valid and reliable for assessing forgiveness in Spanish adults, demonstrating good internal consistency and validity.
