Abstract
The purpose of this study was to shorten a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) stigma scale to make it less burdensome for HIV-positive (HIV+) youth without compromising psychometric properties. The shortened questionnaire showed good internal consistency and validity, suggesting that a 10-item measure of stigma has promise for assessing this important construct in HIV+ youth.Entities:
