尽管国际研究文献越来越关注大学生中的性侵犯，但巴西没有对大学生中性侵犯的普遍性进行系统研究。本研究测量了巴西742名一年级大学生（411名女性）自14岁起的性侵犯和性侵害的普遍程度。葡萄牙语版的性经历调查简表（Koss等人，2007年），以收集作为性侵犯受害者和实施者的男子和妇女的信息。男性受害者的总体发生率为27%，女性为29%。除了性胁迫和企图性胁迫，没有显着的性别差异，受害率有关非自愿性行为和攻击性策略。相比之下，男性的犯罪率（33.7%）明显高于女性（3%）。这一发现挑战了社会上认为男性不太可能受到性胁迫的观念。根据巴西的传统性别角色，对男性受害率和女性犯罪率之间的差距提出了解释。
Despite the increased attention devoted to sexual aggression among college students in the international research literature, Brazil has no systematic studies on the prevalence of sexual aggression in college populations. The present research measured the prevalence of sexual aggression and victimization since age 14 among 742 first-year college students in Brazil (411 women). A Portuguese version of the Short Form of the Sexual Experiences Survey (Koss et al., 2007) was administered to collect information from men and women as both victims and perpetrators of sexual aggression. The overall prevalence rate of victimization was 27% among men and 29% among women. Except for sexual coercion and attempted sexual coercion, there were no significant gender differences in victimization rates concerning nonconsensual sexual acts and aggressive strategies. In contrast, perpetration rates were significantly higher among men (33.7%) than among women (3%). The findings challenge societal beliefs that men are unlikely to be sexually coerced. Explanations are proposed for the disparity between male victimization and female perpetration rates based on traditional gender roles in Brazil.
