Measurement of Racial Microaggressions During Pregnancy and While Receiving Prenatal Care: a Validation Study of the Daily Life Experiences Scale Among Black Postpartum Women
We validate the original DLE-F and a newly developed healthcare-specific version, the DLE-PNC-F among postpartum Black women. Results from this study provide evidence for the use of the DLE among Black postpartum women, while also highlighting the need to further develop a modified version with items specifically relevant to experiences during prenatal care.
