Enjoyment of Sexualization Scale (ESS)

Le résumé fourni par la source

The 8-item Enjoyment of Sexualization scale (ESS; Liss et al., 2011) assesses the extent to which women report enjoying sexualized attention from men. The ESS can be administered online or in person and is free to use in any setting. It was validated on heterosexual women but has also been used reliably with lesbian women. Other versions have been developed for use specifically men as well people with diverse gender identities. This chapter first discusses the development of the ESS and then provides evidence of its psychometrics. More specifically, the ESS has been found to have a single-factor structure within exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and has been found to have high internal consistency reliability as well as convergent and discriminant validity. Next, this chapter provides the ESS items in their entirety, instructions for administering the ESS to participants, the item response scale, and the scoring procedure. Known translations are provided, and logistics of use, such as permissions, copyright, instructions for use of alternative versions, and contact information, are provided for readers.
