title: Reliability and Validity of the Sexual Experiences Survey-Short Forms Victimization and Perpetration.
abstract: The Sexual Experiences Survey (SES), the most widely used measure of unwanted sexual experiences, was recently updated (Koss et al., 2007). The purpose of this study was to provide psychometric data on the updated Sexual Experiences Survey-Short Form Perpetration (SES-SFP) and the Sexual Experiences Survey-Short Form Victimization (SES-SFV). Men (n = 136) and women (n = 433) were randomly assigned to in-person or Internet formats of administration for 3 measurement points. Women completed victimization surveys and trauma measures. Men completed perpetration surveys and attitude/ personality measures. Results supported the validity and reliability of both the SES-SFV with women and the SES-SFP with men. Further research is needed regarding the use of the SES-SFV with men and the SES-SFP with women.
