The Sexual Experiences Survey: interpretation and validity. 性经验调查:解释与有效性。

{"title":"The Sexual Experiences Survey: interpretation and validity.","authors":"G Karabatsos","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>The Sexual Experiences Survey (Koss, Gidycz, & Wisniewski, 1987) is a commonly used instrument for assessing various degrees of sexual aggression and victimization among male offenders and female victims. Rasch analysis was used to transform qualitative raw score observations into objective linear measures using the responses of a national sample of 6,159 higher education men and women across the United States, aged 18-24. This paper supports the construct validity of the survey through evaluation of the item hierarchy, fit statistics, and separation indices. Findings confirm a \"dimensional\" perspective on rape, suggesting that sexually aggressive behaviors can be scaled along a single continuum from normal to extreme sexual behavior. The item hierarchy reveals an arrangement of sexually aggressive acts in an order of mild to severe, which compares with the one theorized by the authors of the SES. Identity plots demonstrate the validity of using a common set of SES item calibrations to measure both male and female respondents. For interpretation of person responses to the SES, three conclusions are suggested. First, Rasch analysis must be employed to examine item responses effectively. Second, when the survey is administered to a college sample aged 18-24, the item calibrations obtained in this paper can be used to measure offenders and victims. Third, a total raw score-to-measure conversion is not always sufficient to interpret person measures. Instead, a scalogram method needs be added to the Rasch analysis to separate the measures of offenders and victims who complete the survey. Implications for future research are discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":79673,"journal":{"name":"Journal of outcome measurement","volume":"1 4","pages":"305-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20579243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Concordance between the modes was shown to be satisfactory for the Rasch measures based on intraclass correlation coefficients. However, the telephone mode consistently generated lower estimates than did the observational mode. This was due to the fact that the telephone mode underestimated motor function for the majority of patients who were at higher levels of cognition and motor function, but overestimated for patients who were at lower levels of cognition and motor function. At the item level, concordance, as determined by Kappa statistics, was better when the FONE FIM responses came from the patient rather than proxy respondents, and when the assessments were done by more experienced rather than less experienced raters.

Unfortunately, the system can be influenced by idiosyncratic ratings made by some judges unlike the skating ability measures from a many-facet Rasch analysis.

A many-facet Rasch analysis was conducted on data from the controversial ladies event at the 1994 Olympics. The results illustrate how the idiosyncratic ratings of the judges were not accounted for by the median rank system, thus biasing the selection of the gold medal winner.
