Abstract

This study addresses the scarcity of quantitative tools for assessing the mental health consequences of intimate partner violence on women, focusing on validating the Slovenian translation of the Intimate Violence and Traumatic Affect Scale (S-VITA). Using an online cross-sectional design, we surveyed a representative sample of 1,016 Slovenian women, with 275 experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV). Confirmatory factor analysis, performed on the IPV subsample, supported the proposed four-factor model (Fear, Terror, Guilt, and Shame) with strong internal consistency. The scale demonstrated robust construct and divergent, convergent, and cross-cultural validity. With compelling psychometric properties, we recommend its adoption by Slovenian professionals and researchers, suggesting its applicability in diverse linguistic contexts.

斯洛文尼亚亲密暴力与创伤情绪量表（S-VITA）的验证。

本研究解决了评估亲密伴侣暴力对妇女心理健康影响的定量工具缺乏的问题，重点是验证斯洛文尼亚语翻译的亲密暴力和创伤影响量表（S-VITA）。使用在线横断面设计，我们调查了1016名斯洛文尼亚妇女的代表性样本，其中275人经历过亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）。对IPV子样本进行的验证性因子分析支持提出的四因素模型（恐惧，恐怖，内疚和羞耻）具有很强的内部一致性。量表结构稳健，具有发散性、收敛性和跨文化的有效性。具有引人注目的心理测量特性，我们建议斯洛文尼亚的专业人士和研究人员采用它，这表明它在不同的语言背景下的适用性。
