“…The South African version combined selected SRPS items with items from a different gender scale (Dunkle et al, 2007). Ten studies combined subsets of items from RC and DMD subscales to create a new scale (Amaro et al, 2007; Jones & Gulick, 2009; Kaufman, Shefer, Crawford, Simbayi, & Kalichman, 2008; Operario, Nemoto, Iwamoto, & Moore, 2011a, 2011b; Pettifor, Measham, Rees, & Padian, 2004; Younge, Salem, & Bybee, 2010). However, moderate types of adaptations, such as dropping items from the scale due to concerns about negative emotional reactions by participants (Ragsdale, Gore-Felton, Koopman, & Seal, 2009) or the irrelevance of certain items to specific populations (Ketchen, Armistead, & Cook, 2009), were found to be more common.…”
