In this article, we report the development and psychometric properties of scores on a new 8-item scale designed to assess women’s sexual objectification experiences in their family of origin: Sexual Objectification Experiences in Family of Origin Scale. Our participants were 827 young adult women, ranging in age from 18–30 years old, who filled out a web-based survey. We provide support for structural validity (via exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses) and reliability (alpha and omega) for scores on this new measure. Supporting construct validity, Sexual Objectification Experiences in Family of Origin Scale was positively correlated with depression, disordered eating, self-objectification, internalization of cultural standards of beauty, and body shame. Associations with mental health and body image outcomes held true, even after controlling for interpersonal sexual objectification experiences and childhood sexual abuse, providing support for incremental validity. Mental health providers can use this scale as a clinical assessment tool to better understand the contextual factors that may be impacting young adult women’s struggles with body shame, depression, and disordered eating. It can also be used to inform treatment strategies that target family of origin concerns and the role of sexual objectification within the family unit on individual distress.

原生家庭量表中的性客体化:发展和心理测量评估

在本文中,我们报告了一个新的 8 项量表的分数的发展和心理测量特性,该量表旨在评估女性在其原生家庭中的性客体化经历:原生家庭中的性客体化经历量表。我们的参与者是 827 名年轻成年女性,年龄从 18 岁到 30 岁不等,她们填写了一份网络调查。我们为这一新衡量标准的分数的结构有效性(通过探索性和验证性因素分析)和可靠性(阿尔法和欧米伽)提供支持。支持结构效度的是,原生家庭量表中的性客体化体验与抑郁、饮食失调、自我客体化、美文化标准的内化和身体羞耻呈正相关。即使在控制了人际性客体化经历和儿童性虐待之后,与心理健康和身体形象结果的关联仍然成立,为增量有效性提供了支持。心理健康提供者可以使用该量表作为临床评估工具,以更好地了解可能影响年轻成年女性与身体羞耻、抑郁和饮食失调作斗争的背景因素。它还可以用来指导针对原生家庭问题的治疗策略以及家庭单位内性客体化对个人痛苦的作用。
