解决性侵犯问题需要有充分的信息和经验基础的政策和实践反应。这项研究调查了在性侵犯期间和之后犯罪者使用药物和酒精的影响。一个有代表性的女性样本，她们回答了一个随机的数字拨号调查，并报告说她们在生活中的某个时候受到过性侵犯。调查问题主要来自国家暴力侵害妇女行为调查（1996年Tjaden），并进行了一系列二元逻辑回归，以确定肇事者在袭击前后使用酒精和药物对暴力行为的影响。调查结果表明，行凶者在袭击时使用酒精或其他药物，导致更大的可能性同时发生暴力行为，包括殴打、扇耳光、踢脚、使用武器、威胁伤害或杀害，以及在袭击期间造成身体伤害，因此，袭击受害者失去了更多的工作、学习、家务和娱乐时间。这两种影响都与犯罪者与受害者的关系、性侵犯的地点或受害者的种族无关。这些信息有助于倡导者和决策者在更容易发生性暴力的地方开展预防工作。
Addressing sexual assault requires policy and practice responses that are well-informed and empirically-grounded. This study examines the impact of perpetrators' drug and alcohol use during and after sexual assault. A representative sample of women, who responded to a random digit dialing survey, and reported that they were sexually assaulted at some time in their lives were utilized. The survey questions were drawn largely from The National Violence Against Women (NVAW) Survey (Tjaden 1996), and a series of binary logistic regressions was conducted to determine the impact of perpetrators' alcohol and drug use on violence before and after the assault. Findings indicate that perpetrators' alcohol or other drug use at the time of the assault resulted in a greater likelihood of concurrent violence, including hitting, slapping, kicking, use of a weapon, threats to harm or kill, and physical injury during the assault, and as a result, assault victims experienced more time lost from work, school, home duties, and recreation. Both these impacts occurred regardless of the relationship of the perpetrator to the victim, location of the sexual assault, or the victim's ethnicity. This information assists advocates and policy makers in prevention efforts where sexual violence is more likely to emerge.
