Abstract

The problem of hatred in society is still urgently needed, especially in light of the detrimental effects associated with social conflict, discrimination and inequality, psychological harm, and social polarization. Instruments are required to measure the extent to which hatred occurs to map the conditions under which it occurs and find various treatments to counteract hatred and its worst effects. Although there have been numerous studies on hatred, there are still no widely accepted tools for measuring it, particularly ones translated into Indonesian. This study aims to investigate the psychometric properties of the triangular hate scale (THS) (Sternberg, R. J., and Sternberg, K., 2008) in its Indonesian version (ID-THS), which is a tool used to assess the intensity of personal hatred based on three main indicators: the negation of intimacy, passion, and commitment. There are 816 participants in this study, ages 13 to 18, 278 of whom are male and 631 are female. The findings of our study show that the ID-THS has a person reliability of 0.91 and an item reliability of 0.99. The final ID-THS version includes 29 tested items. Meanwhile, other findings show that even though the average score of respondents indicates low hatred (-.39 Logit). The difference in hatred between males and females is significant (prob < 0.05), hatred in males (-.57 Logit) is less than that in females (-.31). In summary, the ID-THS is the first to measure hatred in the Indonesian context with adequate psychometric properties.
