性暴力在大学社区是一个被广泛报道的问题。迄今为止,研究主要集中在旁观者干预上,作为帮助预防这一问题的一种方法。虽然旁观者干预的感知后果,如成本和收益的权重,已经被检查过,但很少有研究探讨旁观者干预后会发生什么。目前的研究调查了旁观者对性侵犯风险的感知结果和实际后果的报告。在接受调查的545人中,有150人报告在过去的一个月里采取了旁观者的行动,并定性地描述了他们的旁观者行为和相关各方的反应。确定了一系列行为反应和干预方法。参与者报告的最常见的反应是受害者传达积极的反应和肇事者传达消极的反应。不同类型的帮助与旁观者对其行为的不同反应有关。未来的研究应纳入旁观者干预后果的额外措施。讨论了政策和旁观者干预计划的意义,强调旁观者干预计划需要解决一系列旁观者行为,并解释干预的潜在后果和风险。
Sexual violence is a widely reported problem in college communities. To date, research has largely focused on bystander intervention as one way to help prevent this problem. Although perceived consequences of bystander intervention, such as the weighting of costs and benefits, have been examined, little research has explored what happens after a bystander intervenes. The current study investigated what bystanders report as perceived outcomes and actual consequences of their bystander actions in response to risk for sexual assault. Of the 545 surveyed, 150 reported having taking bystander action in the past month and qualitatively described their bystander behavior and the responses of those parties involved. A range of behavioral responses and intervention methods were identified. The most frequent responses reported by participants were victims conveying positive and perpetrators conveying negative responses. Different types of helping were associated with bystanders reporting different types of responses to their actions. Future research should incorporate additional measures of consequences of bystander intervention. Implications for policy and bystander intervention programs are discussed, stressing the need for bystander intervention programs to address a range of bystander behaviors and explain the potential consequences and risks of intervening.
