The notion of socialization being a relevant and multidimensional construct has been demonstrated by the literature and reinforced in the present study. Socialization can be a difficult process, especially for certain types of people due to their personality and life experiences. Based on inmate research, being negatively labeled by others and internalizing such labels can result in feelings of dissonance in addition to socialization problems. The current study used the 24-item SOC scale to analyze differences in socialization difficulty among four specific groups of participants: the incarcerated, high school, college, and university students. The SOC scale was deemed reliable after yielding a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.831, while the multifaceted nature of socialization difficulty was made clear after conducting a factor analysis that yielded six factors accounting for 49.449% of the variance in the data. As hypothesized, it was found that the incarcerated group had significantly greater socialization difficulty than the three student groups.
