Sometimes, relatives of children with autism experience feelings of guilt, abandonment and devaluation, as they tend to see themselves as the cause of their children's illness. This causes social isolation and psychological discomfort. However, there are no scales that assess self-stigma. Therefore, the aim of the study is to show evidence of the validity and reliability of the Self-Stigma Scale in Relatives of People with Mental Illness in the Spanish context in relation to autism. A total of 287 progenitors participated in the study. For the validation and adaptation process, three confirmatory factor analyses, analysis of invariance across gender, reliability analysis and temporal stability, were carried out. The results revealed that the factor structure of the questionnaire was adequate, showing adequate levels of reliability.
有时,自闭症儿童的亲属会感到内疚、被抛弃和被贬低,因为他们往往认为自己是孩子患病的原因。这会导致社交孤立和心理不适。然而,目前还没有评估自我污名的量表。因此,本研究的目的是在西班牙自闭症背景下,证明精神疾病患者亲属的自我污名量表的有效性和可靠性。共有 287 名家长参与了这项研究。在验证和适应过程中,进行了三次验证性因子分析、跨性别不变性分析、可靠性分析和时间稳定性分析。结果表明,问卷的因子结构是合适的,显示出足够的可靠性水平。
