|
The purpose of this study was to develop the perceived stigma scale of prisoner. 23 preliminary items were developed through a literature review, examination of several established stigma scales. After content validity of the preliminary items was confirmed by 7 professionals. A survey was conducted by 247 prisoners. 9 inappropriate items were eliminated through item analysis and therefore an exploratory factor analysis(EFA) was conducted with 14 items. 2 factors(Self-Concealment about Imprisonment, Prejudice about Criminal) were derived from EFA. The first factor `Self-Concealment about Imprisonment` consisted of 9 items for prisoner him/herself not to expose or to keep secret about imprisonment because he/she accepted negative recognition about prisoner. The second factor `Prejudice about Criminal` was composed of 5 items concerning social prejudices and stereotypes to regard criminal as deviator from normality. Afterward, analysis of reliability and validity confirmed the utility and stability of stigma scale of prisoner. Discriminant validity verified as a result of correlation analysis with self-esteem. Based on the results of this study, we discussed the significance and limits of this study and presented suggestions for follow-up study.
