由于用于衡量性侵犯的方法不足，国家犯罪统计数据、犯罪受害情况研究、定罪或监禁率未能反映强奸的真实范围。避免这些方法局限性的研究表明，公开强奸的发生率很高，性侵犯的程度较低。本研究报告的目标是将以前的工作扩大到全国范围。性经历调查是对在32所代表美国高等教育环境多样性的机构中注册的6，159名女性和男性进行的全国抽样调查。获得了妇女报告的经历和男子报告的强奸、强奸未遂、性胁迫和性接触，包括14岁以来的流行率和前一年的发病率。研究结果支持了已发表的关于大量正常人群中强奸和其他形式性侵犯发生率很高的说法。虽然研究结果在中学后学生中的普遍性有限，但这一群体占美国18-24岁所有人的26%。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2016阿帕，保留所有权利）
Because of inadequacies in the methods used to measure sexual assault, national crime statistics, criminal victimization studies, convictions, or incarceration rates fail to reflect the true scope of rape. Studies that have avoided the limitations of these methods have revealed very high rates of overt rape and lesser degrees of sexual aggression. The goal of the present study was to extend previous work to a national basis. The Sexual Experiences Survey was administered to a national sample of 6,159 women and men enrolled in 32 institutions representative of the diversity of higher education settings across the United States. Women's reports of experiencing and men's reports of perpetrating rape, attempted rape, sexual coercion, and sexual contact were obtained, including both the rates of prevalence since age 14 and of incidence during the previous year. The findings support published assertions of high rates of rape and other forms of sexual aggression among large normal populations. Although the results are limited in generalizability to postsecondary students, this group represents 26% of all persons aged 18–24 in the United States.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
