| dc.description.notes | General Overview:This article presents the development and evaluation of a new psychometric measurement tool, the Brief Coercion and Conflict Scales, in a sample of women incarcerated in the US.<br/ ><br/ >Objective: The article tests the measure’s ability to predict women’s psychological and behavioural or strategic responses to violence, depending on the interpersonal context of their experiences of abuse.<br/ ><br/ >Methods:A literature review is provided, including the strengths and limits of the Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS). To develop the measures, focus groups have been conducted with female prison inmates who had been battered. Qualitative and quantitative data from 67 pilot interviews are used to refine the measures. The measures’ internal construct validity is evaluated with confirmatory factor analyses in a validation sample of 96 women.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion:Measures are discussed. Measures on violence and its interpersonal context such as intimate partner violence, conflict and coercion dimensions are described. Measures on emotional well being and strategic responses, such as depressive symptoms, posttraumatic stress symptoms and strategic responses are included. Pilot study, measurement revision, internal validity of the control and conflict dimensions, confirmatory factor analysis and external validity are analysed.<br/ ><br/ >Conclusions: The findings support the instrument as a viable tool but suggest that further psychometric evaluation of internal and external validity with additional samples will be needed. | en |
