Research has linked experiences of sexual objectification to body image and eating problems among women. Existing measures of sexual objectification were grounded in heterosexual women's experiences. The present research extends this prior work by centering sexual minority women's experiences to develop and evaluate the Sexual Minority Women's Sexual Objectification Experiences Scale (SMW-SOE). In Study 1, an initial 51 items were developed, drawing on prior qualitative research with sexual minority women and existing measures of sexual objectification experiences. Exploratory factor analysis of 217 sexual minority women's responses to the initial item set suggested an underlying structure of three interrelated factors. In Study 2, data were collected from an independent sample of 201 sexual minority women to conduct confirmatory factor analysis and evaluate validity evidence. Findings from the confirmatory factor analysis supported a higher order solution with three first-order factors. The final scale comprised 17 items: six items assessing Sexualization of Sexual Identity, five items assessing Intrusive and Explicit Sexual Advances, and six items assessing Body Evaluation. In terms of validity, SMW-SOE overall scale scores yielded expected small-to-large positive correlations with heterosexist experiences, internalization of sociocultural appearance standards, and disordered eating; SMW-SOE subscale scores yielded distinctive patterns of correlations. SMW-SOE scale and subscale items yielded acceptable Cronbach's alphas in both samples. Implications for future research and clinical work are discussed.

性少数群体妇女的性客观体验量表的开发和心理评估。

研究已将性客观化的经验与女性的身体形象和饮食问题联系起来。现有的性客观化衡量标准是基于异性恋女性的经历。本研究通过集中性少数族裔妇女的经验来发展和评估性少数族裔妇女的性客观化体验量表（SMW-SOE），从而扩展了先前的工作。在研究1中，根据先前对少数性别妇女的定性研究和现有的性客观化经验衡量标准，开发了最初的51个项目。探索性因素分析了217名性少数族裔妇女对初始项目集的反应，表明了三个相互关联的因素的潜在结构。在研究2中，从201位性少数族裔妇女的独立样本中收集数据，以进行验证性因素分析并评估有效性证据。验证性因子分析的结果支持了具有三个一阶因子的高阶解。最终量表包括17个项目：六个项目评估性认同的性别化，五个项目评估侵入性和显式性进步，六个项目评估身体评估。在有效性方面，SMW-SOE总体量表得分与异性恋经历，社会文化容貌标准的内在化和饮食失调产生了预期的正相关关系。SMW-SOE子量表得分产生了独特的相关性模式。SMW-SOE规模和次级规模项目在两个样本中均产生了可接受的Cronbach's alpha。讨论了对未来研究和临床工作的影响。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2021 APA，保留所有权利）。
