灵性是一个公认的保护健康的心理社会决定因素。目前的研究检查了黑人同性恋,双性恋和其他性少数群体男性(SMM)和黑人跨性别女性(TW)的日常精神体验量表(DSES)的心理测量特性。资料采自访谈法收集,并以因子分析及相关系数进行分析。我们证明了一个单因素结构的DSES具有较高的内部一致性(Cronbach的α = 0.96)。DSES与宗教、韧性、乐观和社会支持的多个维度呈显著正相关,与愤世嫉俗和愤怒表达无显著相关。精神应该包括在艾滋病毒预防,治疗和护理战略的重点是黑人SMM和黑人TW,特别是那些居住在美国南部腹地。
Spirituality is a well-established protective psychosocial determinant of health. The current study examined the psychometric properties of the Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale (DSES) among Black gay, bisexual and other sexual minority men (SMM) and Black transwomen (TW) in the Deep South. Data were collected via self-interview technology and analyzed using factor analyses and correlation coefficients. We demonstrated a single-factor structure of the DSES with high internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.96). DSES was positively and significantly associated with multiple dimensions of religion, resilience, optimism and social support and not significantly associated with cynicism and anger expressions. Spirituality should be included in HIV prevention, treatment and care strategies focused on Black SMM and Black TW, especially those residing in the Deep South, USA.
