Identity, stigma, attitude, reliability, validityAbstract
In the context of health policies, the psychological processes of identity and stigma are a team that tries to explain assessment processes lifestyles related to vulnerable groups. Indeed, the aim of this study is to establish the validity and reliability of an instrument that measured four dimensions on a scale of attitudes. A cross - sectional and correlational study was conducted to establish the psychometric properties of the instrument with a non - probabilistic intentional sample of 258 students from a public university. The results show both dimensions as preponderant factors of attitude, but their inclusion in the construct was taken as part of a process of spontaneous activation; actions and risks that only carriers close to group can perform.
