This study assessed (a) the kinds of attributions victims make,(b) whether behavioral and characterological self-blame are associated with other variables as hypothesized (eg, perception of future avoidability of being raped), and (c) whether behavioral self-blame is associated with better post-rape adjustment (R. Janoff-Bulman; see record 1981-01320-001). Attributions and adjustment were assessed in a sample of adult female rape victims seen at a hospital-based rape crisis program. Many victims blamed themselves but tended to place more blame on external factors. The pattern of relations between behavioral and characterological self-blame and other attributional measures did not support the hypothesized distinctions between them. Both kinds of self-blame were significantly associated with increased post-rape depression. Attributions strongly predicted adjustment, accounting for up to 67% of the variance in 3-day post-rape depression. The theoretical and clinical implications of these findings are discussed.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
