The study of feminism has had a long and complicated history in psychological research over the past half century. Although a number of instruments have been designed to assess feminist attitudes and identity in the United States during this time, many contain psychometric problems or sample limitations, or they were derived from outdated models of feminism. Scales designed to assess feminist identity and attitudes require updating to reflect the shifting goals, meanings, and (mis)interpretations of feminism. Given feminism’s changing landscape and the emergence of postfeminism, a critical review of these tools is warranted. In the present article, we provide a synopsis of 10 self-report measures of feminist identity and attitudes (and their shortened and expanded forms) that met our selection criteria, including aims, psychometric properties, and utility for assessing modern feminist identity and attitudes. We identify the strengths and limitations of each measure and provide recommendations for a new generation of instruments to capture and assess modern feminist identity and attitudes in a changing cultural context.

在过去的半个世纪中，女权主义的研究在心理学研究方面有着悠久而复杂的历史。尽管在这段时间里设计了许多工具来评估美国的女权主义态度和身份，但许多工具包含心理测量问题或样本限制，或者它们是从过时的女权主义模型衍生而来的。用于评估女权主义身份和态度的量表需要更新，以反映女权主义不断变化的目标，含义和（错误）解释。鉴于女权主义的格局不断变化以及后女权主义的出现，有必要对这些工具进行严格的审查。在本文中，我们提供了10项自我报告指标的概要，这些指标符合女性的选择标准，包括目标，心理计量学特征，以及用于评估现代女性主义身份和态度的工具。我们确定每种措施的优点和局限性，并为新一代工具提供建议，以在变化的文化背景下捕捉和评估现代女性主义的身份和态度。
