  1. Spanish-Language Stressful life events (SL-SLE), Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA), Hopkins Symptom Check List (HSCL-25), Herth Hope Scale (HHS). Sex: 0 = male; 1 = female, age is mean centred. Bonferroni adjusted alpha level for the models compared (2 × 3 independent variables) is .0083. Variance inflation factor (VIF) and Tolerance were in accepted levels. Significant estimates at p < .001and are bold
