A Pilot Study on Korean Version Development of the Self-Discrepancy Scale(SDS) for Victims of Sexual Violence -Focused on the Cognition of Sexual Violence of General Female Youths-

Sexual violence intended for children and youths has increased and domestic violence cases are increasing. It is known that discrepancy between actual and ideal self influences adjustment and affects the effects of disease-related health problems on psychological well-being. Therefore, author tried to study the correlation between cognition or education about sexual violence to female youths and their SDS. Author adopted the SDS that was already developed by Susan M. Heidrich et al with modification and translation into Korean culture and language. According to the international linguistic validation process, conceptual definition, forward translation, backward translation were done and then, pilot testing was done for the cognitive debriefing. 36 female students in one Korean university of nursing were enrolled. Reliability was tested by test-retest method with Cronbach's alpha. Fisher's exact test, t-test, ANOVA were also done for comparison of SDS and variables such as sexual violence education, educational time, and sense of security. All students felt the need of education about sexual abuse. The reason why the education is needed 1) anybody could experiences sexual violence (n=27), 2) there are many cases seen in mass media (n=17). 28 subjects received an education about sexual violence (78%). Significant difference was seen between SDS score and sexual violence education (t=-2.72, p=0.01), but not shown educational hours (F=0.66, p=0.53), sense of security (F=0.06, p=0.94), respectively. No statistic difference was observed in the SDS score by test-retest method (t=0.81, p=0.42) and Cronbach's alpha was 0.92. The SDS would be reliable method to be used for undergraduates of a university in Korea. Education program for preventing sexual violence should be introduced into the regular school curriculum because youths feel safe from the sexual violence after being educated. Further SDS study on the victims who experience sexual violence is also needed.
