OBJECTIVE
We evaluated the psychometric properties of a new instrument "Mental Illness Sexual Stigma Questionnaire" (MISS-Q).
METHODS
We interviewed 641 sexually active adults (ages 18-80) attending public outpatient psychiatric clinics in Rio de Janeiro about their stigma experiences.
RESULTS
Nine factors were extracted through exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and labeled: 'individual discrimination by others'; 'staff willingness to talk about sexuality'; 'staff and family prohibitions'; 'sexual devaluation of self'; 'perceived attractiveness'; 'mental illness concealment'; 'perceived sexual role competence'; 'withdrawal'; and 'locus of social-sexual control'. 'Withdrawal' and 'locus of social-sexual control' showed poor psychometric properties and were excluded from further analysis. The remaining seven factors had high factorial loadings (.39 to .86), varying from sufficient to optimal reliability (Ordinal α ranged from .57 to .88), and good convergent and discriminant validity.
CONCLUSIONS
The resulting MISS-Q is the first instrument assessing mental illness sexual stigma with demonstrated psychometric properties. It may prove useful in reducing stigma, protecting sexual health, and promoting recovery.
目的
我们评估了一种新工具“精神疾病性污名问卷”（MISS-Q）的心理测量特性。
方法
我们采访了641名年龄在18至80岁之间、在里约热内卢公立门诊精神科诊所就诊的性活跃成年人，了解他们的污名经历。
结果
通过探索性因素分析（EFA）提取了九个因素，并进行了标注：“他人的个体歧视”；“工作人员谈论性话题的意愿”；“工作人员和家人的禁令”；“自我性价值贬低”；“感知吸引力”；“精神疾病隐瞒”；“感知性角色能力”；“回避”；以及“社会-性控制源”。“回避”和“社会-性控制源”显示出较差的心理测量特性，被排除在进一步分析之外。其余七个因素具有较高的因子载荷（0.39至0.86），可靠性从足够到最佳不等（有序α范围为0.57至0.88），并具有良好的收敛效度和区分效度。
结论
最终形成的MISS-Q是首个具有已证实心理测量特性的评估精神疾病性污名的工具。它可能在减少污名、保护性健康和促进康复方面证明有用。
