Abstract
This empirical study utilized EFA, CFA, and Pearsons correlations to analyze data from two separate studies to develop the Homonegative Religious Messages Scale (HaRMS), a culturally-specific measure that assesses religion-based minority stress. Analyses revealed two factors, good internal consistency, and predictive validity.
