| Abstract: | The current paper was targeted to validate the Self-Hate Scale (SHS; Turnell et al., 2019) for application within the Russian-speaking community, as it examined its validity and reliability within a sample of 302 participants. Subsequent to the translation procedures, a strong positive relationship between the English and the Russian versions was administered within the evaluation of the linguistic equivalence. According to the reliability and validity analysis, the Russian SHS is a single-factor scale with seven items and good factor loadings. The Russian version of the SHS displayed satisfactory fit values and good reliability coefficients, suggesting its validity and consistency. Self-hate demonstrated a positive correlation with the concepts of depression and anxiety and a negative correlation with self-compassion and its subscales ("self-kindness," "self-judgment," "common humanity," "isolation," "mindfulness," and "over-identification") and self-acceptance. A multivariate general linear model was employed to examine the predictive effect of SHS scores on depression, anxiety, self-acceptance, self-compassion, and its subscales. These findings suggest the SHS-Russian Form to be valid and reliable to utilize among the Russian-speaking countries. |
