Sažetak
The goal of the research was development of Questionnaire for estimation of informal stigmatization experience in juveniles with socially unacceptable behaviour and to explore the level of informal stigmatization experience in juveniles with socially unacceptable behaviour from different persons in their surrounding.
The research was conducted in two phases, combining qualitative and quantitative methodology. In first phase focus groups with juveniles with socially unacceptable behaviour in institutional treatment (N=32) were conducted, on the ground of their statements was formed initial questionnaire of informal stigmatization (42 items). In second phase the integral questionnaire was conducted on the sample of 272 juveniles with socially unacceptable behaviour to whom were applied non institutional and institutional measures, after that was conducted psychometric analysis and constructed the final version of the questionnaire.
The Questionnaire of informal stigmatization consists of 30 items and has high reliability (alpha = .94). Higher result means more experience of informal stigmatization from persons in their surrounding. Factor analysis extracted four factors: Fear and negative expectations from others, Humiliation and rejection from others, Negative perception from teachers and Negative perception from parents and relatives. Result on each dimension tells us about experience of stigmatization from different persons from surrounding (parents, relatives, peers, friends, teachers, neighbours).
The result on the constructed Questionnaire of informal stigmatization shows us that juveniles who are more formally stigmatized (institutional measure) are also more informally stigmatized from different persons in their surrounding. Between juveniles with non institutional measures before and after conducted court procedure there is no statistically significant difference. Juveniles experience mostly negative perception from teachers, parents and relatives, but they also report about fear and negative expectations from persons in their surrounding.
