The Department of Defense's "gold standard" sexual harassment measure, the Sexual Harassment Core Measure (SHCore), is based on an earlier measure that was developed primarily in college women. Furthermore, the SHCore requires a reading grade level of 9.1. This may be higher than some troops' reading abilities and could generate unreliable estimates of their sexual harassment experiences. Results from 108 male and 96 female soldiers showed that the SHCore's temporal stability and alternate-forms reliability was significantly worse (a) in soldiers without college experience compared to soldiers with college experience and (b) in men compared to women. For men without college experience, almost 80% of the temporal variance in SHCore scores was attributable to error. A plain language version of the SHCore had mixed effects on temporal stability depending on education and gender. The SHCore may be particularly ill suited for evaluating population trends of sexual harassment in military men without college experience.
美国国防部的“金标准”性骚扰衡量标准，即性骚扰核心衡量标准（SHCore），是基于早期主要在女大学生中开发的衡量标准。此外，SHCore 需要阅读水平达到 9.1 级。这可能高于一些部队的阅读能力，并且可能会对他们的性骚扰经历产生不可靠的估计。对 108 名男性和 96 名女性士兵的结果表明，（a）与有大学经历的士兵相比，没有大学经历的士兵和（b）与女性相比，SHCore 的时间稳定性和替代形式可靠性明显更差。对于没有大学经历的男性，SHCore 得分的时间变化中几乎 80%归因于误差。SHCore 的通俗版本的时间稳定性因教育程度和性别而异，效果不一。SHCore 可能特别不适合评估没有大学经历的军人中性骚扰的人口趋势。
