Abstract

Objective

To translate the Young Parent Stigma Scale (YPSS) into Bahasa Indonesia and adapt for pregnant adolescents to become Young Pregnancy Stigma Scale (YPrSS-BI). To evaluate the psychometric properties of the YPrSS-BI and determine the perceived stigma and related variables of pregnant adolescents.

Design

A cross-sectional validation study.

Setting

West Sumatra province, Indonesia.

Participants

Pregnant adolescents (n=184) aged 15–19 years old.

Methods

The YPSS was translated and modified as YPrSS-BI for cultural congruity using the procedure of Beaton et al. (2000). A convenience sample of pregnant adolescents in West Sumatra, Indonesia provided data for exploratory factor analysis.

Findings

A four-factor solution across 22 items was found to explain a total variance of 66.9% of the perceived stigma of pregnant adolescent women. Cronbach's alpha of the YPrSS-BI was satisfactory for the total scale (0.88), and adequate to excellent across the four factors (0.77–0.94).

Conclusion

The YPrSS-BI is a valid and reliable instrument to measure stigma perceived by pregnant Indonesian adolescents.

Implications for practice

Stigma, entangled with social and cultural burdens, can negatively impact physical and mental health of adolescents during pregnancy. Healthcare providers can use the YPrSS-BI to evaluate stigmatized feelings of pregnant girls and foster potential interventions to reduce stigma burden.

目的将年轻父母成见量表（YPSS）翻译成印尼语，并针对怀孕青少年进行调整，使之成为年轻怀孕成见量表（YPrSS-BI）。评估 YPrSS-BI 的心理测量学特性，并确定怀孕青少年感知到的耻辱感和相关变量。对印度尼西亚西苏门答腊怀孕少女的方便抽样调查为探索性因子分析提供了数据。结果发现，22 个项目的四因子解解释了怀孕少女感知到的耻辱的总方差为 66.9%。YPrSS-BI的Cronbach's alpha对总量表（0.88）和四个因子（0.77-0.94）的Cronbach's alpha都令人满意。医疗服务提供者可使用 YPrSS-BI 评估怀孕少女的耻辱感，并促进潜在的干预措施，以减轻耻辱负担。
