Abstract

In order to develop an indigenous Sexual Harassment Attribution Questionnaire (SHAQ) for Pakistan to measure the attribution of responsibility for sexual harassment a number of strategies were used for producing the initial item pool. These included individual interviews and group discussions. The statement generated from these sources were content analyzed and converted into scenarios. After psychometric evaluation 15 scenarios were selected. Coefficient alpha of this questionnaire was found to be .74. Although additional research is needed to further clarify the validity and reliability of the SHAQ, the questionnaire holds promise as an instrument for exploring the attitudes and perceptions of individuals about the incidents of sexual harassment in Pakistani society.
