PEREIRA, Henrique e LEAL, Isabel Pereira. Medindo a homofobia internalizada: A validação de um instrumento. Aná. Psicológica, jul. 2005, vol.23, no.3, p.323-328. ISSN 0870-8231.

In the present paper we refer to the methodological steps taken in order to validate an instrument of assessment of internalized homophobia. With a sample of 304 subjects, we got a Cronbach´s alpha of 0.74, having also established the existence of two different dimensions: the internal and external perception of the stigma.
