Primary use / Purpose:
Background:
Despite the large number of studies which have looked at sexual harassment in the workplace, relatively little research has focused on the theme of harassment due to one’s sexual orientation. Further, studies show that harassment due to sexual orientation is at least as prevalent as other forms of sexual harassment. To address this imbalance, Estrada, Probst, Brown, & Graso (2011) developed the Sexual Orientation Harassment Scale (SOH) in order to measure the level of sexual orientation harassment participants had either experienced or witnessed in the previous 12 months.
Psychometrics:
The psychometric properties of the Sexual Orientation Harassment Scale (SOH) are discussed in Estrada, Probst, Brown, & Graso (2011).
