目的：一个有希望的机会，推进性暴力（SV）的研究和确定新的途径，预防涉及审查其他形式的暴力，可能共享的风险因素与SV。考虑到SV和YV风险因素重叠的证据，青年暴力（YV）是理想的，在整个社会生态中有大量既定的YV风险因素，以及基于证据的YV预防战略的数量。本文确定了SV和YV的共同和独特的风险因素，并强调了影响这些共同风险因素的循证YV预防策略。结论：研究人员和项目开发人员应考虑调整和评估以证据为基础的YV预防策略，以预防SV。修改这些程序，以解决SV的独特风险因素可能会最大限度地提高其潜在的有效性。此外，扩大社会生态外部层面的性传播疾病研究对于制定社区一级的预防战略至关重要。YV文献提出了几个潜在的风险因素，在这些水平上需要研究SV，包括学校的连通性，社会混乱，酒精和药物的可用性。使用YV文献作为扩大SV研究的起点，利用了先前对YV研究的投资，可能有助于以有限的成本确定新的SV预防战略，并使该领域更快地向社区实施具有成本效益的多领域暴力预防战略。
Objective: One promising opportunity for advancing sexual violence (SV) research and identifying new avenues for prevention involves examining other forms of violence that may share risk factors with SV. Youth violence (YV) is ideal for consideration given evidence of overlap in SV and YV risk factors, a large set of established YV risk factors across the social ecology, and the number of evidence-based YV prevention strategies available. The current paper identifies shared and unique risk factors for SV and YV and highlights evidence-based YV prevention strategies that impact these shared risk factors. Conclusions: Researchers and program developers should consider adapting and evaluating evidence-based YV prevention strategies to prevent SV. Modifying these programs to address SV's unique risk factors may maximize their potential effectiveness. In addition, expanding SV research at the outer levels of the social ecology is critical to developing community-level prevention strategies. The YV literature suggests several potential risk factors at these levels in need of research for SV, including school connectedness, social disorganization, and availability of alcohol and drugs. Using the YV literature as a starting point for expanding SV research leverages prior investments in YV research, may help identify new SV prevention strategies at a limited cost, and moves the field more quickly toward implementation of cost-effective, multidomain violence prevention strategies in communities.
