Objective: Taking into account the concepts of attitude toward homosexual persons,homophobia, and internalized homonegativity, the aims of this study were to verify thehypothetical distinction between two dimensions within the rejection toward homosexualpersons, one dimension of open rejection and another dimension of subtle rejection.Materials and methods: The Attitudes Toward Lesbians and Gay men (ATLG) scale,the 8-itemHomophobia (HF-8) scale and the 16-itemInternalized Homonegativity (HNI-16) scale were applied to a non-probability sample of 231 Mexican students of medicineand psychology (54% women and 46% men). Data were analyzed through confirmatoryfactor analysis. Results: A two-factor model had a close fit to the data, and its fitwas significantly better than the fit of a one-factor model. Conclusion: The distinctionbetween subtle and overt manifestations in the rejection toward homosexual personscan be empirically sustained. Finally, suggestions on evaluation and intervention areproposed in accordance with this two-dimensional conceptualization
