Exploratory and nfirmatory factor analys were performed on rpons to a 13-em sexual behavr stigma sle om 15,681 MSM reced onle across Mexi. Associatns wh extracted factors were tted to asss nstct validy. Three subsl were intified exploratory factor analysis and validated nfirmatory factor analysis: “stigma om fay and iends” (α = 0.65), “anticipated healthre stigma” (α = 0.84), and “general social stigma” (α = 0.70). External nstct validy was dited through each subsle’s strong associatn (all p < 0.001) wh perceived muny tolerance of MSM and perceived muny discrimatn toward people livg wh HIV. The subsl show promise as reliable, valid measur for asssg sexual behavr stigma among MSM Mexi, and as tools for documentg and trackg sexual behavr stigma trends, parg regnal burns of sexual behavr stigma, and trackg the progrs of stigma-migatn terventns among MSM Mexi. Future rearch is need to unrstand the extent to which each subsle is differentially associated wh sexual (and other) health out, which n rm the velopment and implementatn of uniquely tailored stigma-migatn, HIV-preventn, HIV-re, and other need terventns for MSM Mexi.
