这项研究验证了一个简短的耻辱协会规模与南非青年使用（改编自艾滋病毒耻辱协会规模为青少年）。参与者是来自开普敦周围贫困城市社区的723名青年（364名男性，359名女性）。青少年完成了简短的耻辱协会规模和措施的欺凌和同伴问题，以及库存测量抑郁症和焦虑症的症状。探索性分析表明，该量表包括两个分量表：（1）经验的耻辱协会和（2）后果的耻辱协会。这两个因素的结构是在整个样本和艾滋病毒/艾滋病感染和未受影响的亚组。完整的耻辱协会规模表现出良好的信度（a = 0.89 0.90）和两个分量表的信度也很好（a = 0.78 0.87）。正如预测的那样，生活在受艾滋病毒/艾滋病影响的家庭中的儿童比生活在未受影响的家庭中的儿童获得了显著更高的因关联而产生的耻辱得分[F（1，693）= 46.53，p
This study validated a brief stigma-by-association scale for use with South African youth (adapted from the HIV Stigma-by-Association Scale for Adolescents). Participants were 723 youth (364 male, 359 female) from poor urban communities around Cape Town. Youths completed the brief stigma-by-association scale and measures of bullying victimisation and peer-problems, as well as inventories measuring symptoms of depression and anxiety. Exploratory analyses revealed that the scale consists of two subscales: (1) experience of stigma-by-association and (2) consequences of stigma-by-association. This two factor structure was obtained in the full sample and both the HIV/AIDS-affected and unaffected subgroups. The full stigma-by-association scale showed excellent reliability (a = 0.890.90) and reliabilities for both subscales were also good (a = 0.780.87). As predicted, children living in HIV/AIDS-affected households obtained significantly higher stigma-by-association scores than children in non-affected households [F(1, 693) = 46.53, p
