青年妇女中性暴力和伴侣暴力发生率的估计数主要来自大学样本。很少有研究有数据来比较年龄相仿的上大学的女性和从未上过大学的女性的比例。这项研究的目的是按类型估计伴侣暴力的发生率。（性，身体和心理）和严重程度（轻度、中度、重度）、性骚扰，以及知道或怀疑有人在饮料中放了毒品在过去的12个月里，959名年龄在18岁到24岁之间有过亲密关系的年轻女性在全国范围内进行了抽样调查，这些女性要么正在上大学，（大学; n = 272）或从未上过大学（非大学; n = 687）。在调整了这两个群体之间的人口统计学差异后，没有发现性伴侣暴力的发生率有显著差异（28.4%非大学生，23.5%大学生），身体伴侣暴力（27.9%非大学生，26.3%大学生），心理伴侣暴力（M分数：6.10非大学，5.59大学），性骚扰（15.5%非大学，14.1%大学），或吸毒饮料（8.5%非大学，7.8%大学）。在目前正在上大学和没有上大学的年轻妇女中发现人际暴力的发生率很高，这表明需要在教育、工作场所和其他社区环境中针对所有年轻人采取预防暴力干预措施。
Estimates of sexual violence and partner violence rates among young women are generated primarily from college samples. Few studies have data to compare rates among similar-aged women attending college with those who never attended college. This study aims to estimate rates of partner violence by type (sexual, physical, and psychological) and severity (mild, moderate, severe), sexual harassment, and knowing or suspecting that someone put a drug in a drink (drugged drink) among a national sample of 959 young women aged 18 to 24 in an intimate relationship in the past 12 months who were either currently in college (college; n = 272) or never attended college (non-college; n = 687). After adjusting for demographic differences between these two groups, no significant differences were found in rates of sexual partner violence (28.4% non-college, 23.5% college), physical partner violence (27.9% non-college, 26.3% college), psychological partner violence (M score: 6.10 non-college, 5.59 college), sexual harassment (15.5% non-college, 14.1% college), or drugged drink (8.5% non-college, 7.8% college). Finding high rates of interpersonal violence among young women who are and are not currently attending college indicates the need to target all young adults with violence prevention interventions in educational, workplace, and other community-based settings.
