大学校园性侵犯是美国高校中普遍存在的问题,其中女大学生的风险最大。虽然30多年的研究一直致力于揭示大学校园性侵犯和确定受害的风险因素,很少有研究关注残疾女学生和大学校园性侵犯受害之间的关系。本研究使用美国大学健康协会2016年秋季全国大学健康评估(ACHA-NCHA)的女性受访者(N = 22,828)的数据,探讨女性大学校园性侵犯受害与残疾状况之间的关系。分析发现,残疾状况比其他常见的风险因素(如酗酒,吸毒或希腊人)产生更大的性侵犯几率。具体来说,与没有残疾的女学生相比,残疾女学生遭受任何类型性侵犯的几率都增加(比值比[OR] = 1.96; p < .001)。当看到特定类型的攻击时,这种情况会增加。与非残疾女学生相比,残疾女学生经历完整攻击(OR = 2.34; p < .001),攻击未遂(OR = 2.03; p < .001)和关系攻击(OR = 2.22; p < .001)的可能性超过100%。分析还表明,当性侵犯状态被分解为完成的性侵犯,性侵犯未遂和关系性侵犯的类别时,其他重要的独立变量存在差异。此外,在不同类型的攻击中,表现出严重性的残疾类型也各不相同。这些发现对校园暴力预防和干预具有重要的政策意义,并为进一步研究提供了多种途径。
College campus sexual assault is well-documented as a pervasive problem among U.S. colleges and universities, with female college students at the greatest risk. Although more than 30 years of research has been dedicated to uncovering college campus sexual assault and identifying risk factors for victimization, few studies have looked at the relationship between female students with disabilities and college campus sexual assault victimization. The present study uses data from the female respondents (N = 22,828) of the American College Health Association's Fall 2016 National College Health Assessment (ACHA-NCHA) to explore the relationship between female college campus sexual assault victimization and disability status. The analysis finds that disability status produces significantly greater increased odds for sexual assault than other commonly cited risk factors such as binge drinking, drug use, or Greek affiliation. Specifically, female students with disabilities are at increased odds for any type of sexual assault compared with female students without disabilities (odds ratio [OR] = 1.96; p < .001). This increases when looking at specific types of assault. Female students with disabilities were over 100% more likely to experience completed assaults (OR = 2.34; p < .001), attempted assaults, (OR = 2.03; p < .001), and relationship assaults (OR = 2.22; p < .001) compared to female students without disabilities. Analysis also indicates differences in other significant independent variables when sexual assault status is broken down into categories of completed sexual assaults, attempted sexual assaults, and relationship sexual assaults. In addition, the types of disability showing significance vary between the different types of assault. These findings have important policy implications for campus violence prevention and intervention and suggest multiple avenues for further research.
