TI  - Validation of the spanish version of the discrimination and stigma scale (DISC 
      12).
PG  - 137-48
AB  - AIMS: The "Discrimination and Stigma Scale" (DISC) was the first instrument 
      specifically designed to evaluate reported experiences of discrimination by 
      people with mental disorders. This study aims to validate DISC-12 version in 
      Spanish population with Schizophrenia and, as specific objectives, to do the 
      external validation with the Self-Stigma Questionnaire (SSQ) scale and Link PDD 
      scale and to validate their internal consistency, temporal and inter-rater 
      reliability. METHODS: 86 individuals with schizophrenia were interviewed at two 
      time points (between one to two weeks) by two raters. Additionally to assess 
      their sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, following scales were 
      administered: DISC 12, SSQ, PDD, Social Functioning Scale (SFS) and Global 
      Assessment of Function (GAF). RESULTS: Internal consistency as a whole results a 
      Cronbach a between 0.741 and 0.850. Subscales "Unfair treatmen" and "Positive 
      treatment" have a Cronbach a higher than 0.79, but the both subscales "Stopping 
      Self" and "Overcoming stigma" do not have in themselves an adequate consistency. 
      Test-retest reliability shows that four subscales have values higher than 0.67. 
      Inter-rater reliability assessment result that 21 items score values above 0.8, 
      10 between 0.6-0.8 and one lower than 0.6. DISC-12 was significantly related with 
      the second factor of the PDD (self-stigma) and SSQ. CONCLUSIONS: The Spanish 
      version of the DISC 12 scale is valid, has good internal consistency, is reliable 
      both in terms of test-retest and inter-rater reliability and has good convergent 
      validity with the SSQ and PDD, and the "Unfair treatment" and "Positive 
      Treatment" subscales were the most robust of the four subscales.
