Daily Life
Experiences Scale

Daily Life Experiences Scale 

The Daily Life Experiences (DLE) scale is a subscale of the Racism and Life Experiences Scale (RaLes)(Seaton et al., 2009 ). The DLE is a self-report measure that assesses daily hassles or the frequency of “microaggressions” because of race in the past year.

Daily Life Experiences (DLE) Subscale
  1. Being ignored, overlooked or not given service (in a restaurant, store, etc.)
  2. Being treated rudely or disrespectfully
  3. Being accused of something or treated suspiciously
  4. Others reacting to you as if they were afraid or intimidated
  5. Being observed or followed while in public places
  6. Being treated as if you were “stupid”, being “talked down to”
  7. Having your ideas ignored
  8. Overhearing or being told an offensive joke
  9. Being insulted, called a name or harassed
  10. Others expecting your work to be inferior (not as good as others)
  11. Not being taken seriously
  12. Being left out of conversations or activities
  13. Being treated in an “overly” friendly or superficial way
  14. Other people avoiding you
  15. Being stared at by strangers
  16. Being laughed at, made fun of, or taunted
  17. Being mistaken for someone else of your same race
  18. Being disciplined unfairly because of your race
