本研究探讨了强奸神话的使用，在8个英国强奸审判和评估的尝试，审判参与者，以打击it.Trial笔记，观察的基础上，进行了分析，使用主题分析。强奸神话被用于三种可识别的方式：使案件与“真实的强奸”陈规定型观念拉开距离，诋毁原告，强调案件与强奸神话一致的方面。检方很少对这些神话提出质疑，法官也很少反驳强奸神话。这项研究提供了新的见解，展示了强奸神话的方式被用来操纵陪审员的解释的证据。
This study examines rape myth use in eight English rape trials and assesses attempts by trial participants to combat it. Trial notes, based on observations, were analyzed using thematic analysis. Rape myths were used in three identifiable ways: to distance the case from the “real rape” stereotype, to discredit the complainant, and to emphasize the aspects of the case that were consistent with rape myths. Prosecution challenges to the myths were few, and judges rarely countered the rape myths. This study provides new insights by demonstrating the ways that rape myths are utilized to manipulate jurors’ interpretations of the evidence.
