目的：本研究的目的是区分危险因素与年轻男子的自我报告的持续（持久性），停止（停止），并开始（启动）对妇女的性侵犯超过1年的时间段。本研究填补了文献中未提及的空白。在其他研究中，通过在社区样本中前瞻性地检查广泛的预测变量。方法：通过电话抽样在一个大都市地区招募18至35岁的单身男性。在基线和1年后（n = 423）完成了亲自音频计算机辅助自我访谈。结果如下：在后续采访中，一半的参与者报告说，当他们知道一个女人不愿意的时候，他们会与她进行某种类型的性活动。判别函数和方差分析表明，持续的性侵犯者有最极端的分数在许多基线和后续措施，包括儿童受害，社会越轨行为，人格特质，频率的误解妇女的性意图，和期望酒精的影响。在随访中，放弃者的性伴侣比坚持者少。同样在随访中，发起者误解了更多女性的性意图，有更强的酒精预期，在性行为中喝更多的酒，并且与非犯罪者相比喝更多酒的女性在一起。结论：鉴于自我报告的性侵犯率极高，需要普遍的预防计划。有针对性的干预措施应侧重于儿童时期受害的青少年，从事犯罪行为，自恋和不关心他人，享受客观的性行为，大量饮酒，并认为酒精增强性行为。
Objective: The goal of this study is to distinguish risk factors associated with young men's self-reports of continuing (persistence), stopping (desistance), and starting (initiation) sexual aggression against women over a 1-year time period. This study fills gaps in the literature not addressed. in other studies by examining a wide range of predictor variables prospectively in a community sample. Method: Single men between the ages of 18 and 35 were recruited through telephone sampling in a large metropolitan region. In person audio computer-assisted self interviews were completed at baseline and 1 year later (n = 423). Results: By the follow-up interview, half of the participants reported engaging in some type of sexual activity with a woman when they knew she was unwilling. Discriminant function and analysis of variance demonstrated that persistent sexual aggressors had the most extreme scores on many baseline and follow-up measures including childhood victimization, social deviance, personality traits, frequency of misperception of women's sexual intent, and expectancies about alcohol's effects. At follow-up, desisters had fewer sexual partners than did persisters. Also at follow-up, initiators misperceived more women's sexual intentions, had stronger alcohol expectancies, drank more alcohol in sexual situations, and were with women who drank more alcohol compared with nonperpetrators. Conclusions: Given the extremely high rates of self-reported sexual aggression, universal prevention programs are needed. Targeted interventions should focus on youth who were victimized in childhood, engage in delinquent behavior, are narcissistic and unconcerned about others, enjoy impersonal sex, drink heavily, and believe that alcohol enhances sexuality.
