计算机辅助的自我采访完成了随机抽样的163个未婚白人和非洲裔美国男子在一个大都市地区。这些男子中几乎有四分之一(24.5%)承认从14岁起就有过性行为(符合强奸未遂或强奸未遂的标准法律的定义),另外39%的人犯下了另一种类型的性侵犯,包括强迫性接触或口头胁迫。使用路径分析检查了Malamuth等人[1991]汇流模型的扩展版本。参与者实施的性侵犯的数量与儿童期性虐待、青少年犯罪、酒精问题、性支配的直接或间接影响有关。积极的态度,关于随意的性关系,以及来自同龄人的性关系压力。此外,共情缓冲性支配和犯罪之间的关系。结果的模式是高度相似的非洲裔美国人和白人男子,这些研究结果的影响性侵犯测量进行了讨论,并提出了替代治疗方案的建议。
Computer-assisted self-interviews were completed with a random sample of 163 unmarried Caucasian and African American men in a large metropolitan area. Almost a quarter (24.5%) of these men acknowledged committing an act since the age of 14 (hat met standard legal definitions of attempted or completed rape, an additional 39% had committed another type of sexual assault involving forced sexual contact or verbal coercion. An expanded version of the Malamuth et al. [1991] confluence model was examined using path analysis. The number of sexual assaults perpetrated by participants was associated with the direct or indirect effects of childhood sexual abuse, adolescent delinquency, alcohol problems, sexual dominance. positive attitudes, about casual sexual relationships, and pressure from peers to engage in sexual relationships. Additionally, empathy buffered the relationship between sexual dominance and perpetration. The pattern of results was highly similar for African American and Caucasian men, The implications of these findings for sexual assault measurement are discussed and suggestions are made for alternative treatment programs.
