Analysis and Use of Data

The Sexual Correlates of Female Homosexual Experience (SCOFHE) scale is a tool that evaluates various sexual components related to women’s homosexual experience. The scale examines aspects such as:
Sexual Preferences and Attitudes: Women’s preferences, desires, and attitudes regarding their sexuality and homosexuality.
Sexual Behavior: The frequency and type of sexual activities related to homosexual experience.
Self-Perception and Experiences: How women perceive their erotic identity and their experiences with homosexuality.
The SCOFHE collects data that can be used to analyze the factors influencing women’s sexual behavior and preferences. The data collected can be analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively to understand the relationships among the different parameters of sexual experience.

Purpose

The main purpose of the SCOFHE is to examine and understand the sexual dimensions of women’s homosexual experience. This includes the assessment of sexual preferences, behaviors, and self-perception in relation to homosexuality. The scale is used for developing support strategies, understanding the factors that influence sexual preferences, and examining the impact of homosexuality on women’s overall sexual well-being.

Scoring

The scoring of the SCOFHE is usually carried out using a Likert scale. Participants rate each statement or question on a scale from 1 (very rarely) to 5 (very often), or from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), depending on the content of the question. Total scores are calculated either as the sum or as the average of the individual ratings, and higher scores indicate higher levels of agreement or frequency with the reported characteristics.
