一些人认为，旁观者干预计划的性暴力（SV）和约会暴力（DV）的预防应促进同伴教育。然而，没有证据表明同伴教育者在提供课程材料方面比专业人士更有效。这项研究实验性地评估了旁观者预防计划;一半的参与者被分配给同伴教育者，一半被分配给专业人员。多层次模型表明，同伴教育者有显着更好的效果，在减少一些SV和DV支持的态度，并在增加旁观者的效能。在减少其他SV和DV相关态度或增加旁观者行为方面，教育者的有效性没有差异。
Some argue that bystander intervention programs for sexual violence (SV) and dating violence (DV) prevention should be facilitated by peer educators. However, there is no evidence that peer educators are more effective than professionals at delivering program material. This study experimentally evaluated a bystander prevention program; half of participants were assigned to peer educators and half to professionals. Multilevel modeling showed that peer educators had a significantly better effect at reducing some SV- and DV-supportive attitudes and at increasing bystander efficacy. There were no differences in educators' effectiveness at reducing other SV- and DV-related attitudes or at increasing bystander behaviors.
