Abstract
This study developed an instrument to assess Arab women’s perception of the threat of sexual harassment (SH). In order to capture the cultural and interpersonal aspects related to Arab women’s views of such a phenomenon, this study utilized an instrument of seven scales with a total of 76 items: Threat of SH, exposure to SH, society awareness, social engagement, religiosity, the effect of media, and perceived stress. The convenience sample in the study consisted of 1948 females aged 19-45 years from five governorates in Egypt. The study results provided evidence of internal consistency reliability and internal structure evidence of validity for the scales. Implications for social work education and practice were presented.
