The diffusion of EDS was favored by its brevity and psychometric qualities described in its first decade of use 1, 2, 7, 9, focused primarily on their performance in different racial/ethnic groups, such as African Americans 9and Latinos in the US 10, and among women 11. Originally proposed in the context of the Detroit Area Study, to assess experiences and frequency of self-reported discrimination of racial/ethnic groups and its impact on health 7, the scale attempts to capture subtler chronic or episodic aspects of interpersonal discrimination 2, 4. The everyday discrimination scale (EDS) 7 is one of the most widely used instruments to assess racial/ethnic discrimination, especially in the US, but also in European countries, Canada, and South Africa 8. The perception of everyday discrimination involves unfair and recurrent practices in interpersonal interactions in different contexts and environments, including manifestations of disrespectful treatment, belittlement and offer of worse care or service 6. Part of this evidence emerges from studies of interpersonal discrimination, in which experiences of hostility events in everyday life have received greater emphasis 5, for being a measure of chronic exposure to psychosocial stressors 3, 6. Its results are part of the documentation of health disparities in the United States (US), due to the relationships established between experiences of discrimination and worse mental and physical health indicators 3, 4. In recent decades, studies evaluating the association between discrimination and health have increased considerably 1, 2.
