Abstract
The past 40 years have witnessed rapid growth in the study of sexual orientation and identity. Within psychology, this has been accompanied by an ever-growing number of measures designed to assess sexual orientation related constructs. This chapter reviews the most recent and widely employed self-report instruments. These measures diversely assess attitudes of heterosexual individuals toward Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual targets as well as the attitudes of LGB individuals toward their own sexual orientation. Though these assessments all tap self-reported anti-LGB bias, they differ widely in the definition, hypothesized components, and labeling of the construct of interest. The goal of this chapter is to provide information about these important variations in the operationalization of anti-LGB bias and the psychometric quality of resulting tests in a centralized location.
