Hulbert sexual assertiveness index
Hulbert sexual assertiveness index, developed by Hulbert, was used to measure women’s sexual assertiveness. This 25-item tool is scored on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from always (0) to never (4). Items 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, and 23 are scored inversely (always = 4 to never = 0). The score range is from 0—100, as 0 -33 indicates a low level of sexual assertiveness, 33–50 represents moderate sexual assertiveness, and a score above 50 illustrates a high level of sexual assertiveness. The test–retest reliability and internal consistency coefficient of the instrument were obtained 0.86 and 0.89, respectively [
