Construction and validation of a self-report violence scale in Iranian women
The study of sexual violence requires a valid scale that does not exist in Iran, so this study aims to build and validate the scale of sexual violence in Iranian women.
The method of this research is qualitative and quantitative. The statistical population included all women in Jiroft city, Iran. In the qualitative section, the available samples were collected through interviews with women with sexual violence and review of information sources, and in the quantitative section, the number of samples 100 people were selected for the predictive narrative section and 301 for the convergence narrative section. These samples were selected by cluster sampling. The data collection tool in the quantitative section was a researcher-made questionnaire based on the World Health Organization Quality and Domestic Violence Section. Content validation methods, convergence, and factor analysis were used to evaluate the validity of the scale. The reliability of the scale was assessed by internal consistency and syntactic reliability methods.
The results of exploratory factor analysis showed that the sexual violence questionnaire was composed of 18 items of the four factors and had good validity and reliability. The second-order confirmatory factor analysis also confirmed the four-factor model.
The sexual violence questionnaire can be used to assess sexual violence in women.
