PROSPECTIVE ANALYSES OF ALCOHOL USE IN SEXUAL ASSAULT

许多研究人员已经证明，饮酒和性行为 袭击同时发生，但无法获得有关 这种关系的因果动态。拟议研究的目标是 通过解释性侵和性侵犯的关系来减少性侵的发生率 饮酒，对性暗示的误解，以及性行为 人身攻击罪。计算机辅助的自我访谈将在 800名非裔美国人和高加索妇女的代表性样本 底特律大都会地区符合研究标准的女性。通过 向性侵犯的受害者和肇事者询问类似的问题， 对酒精在性侵中作用的认知上的性别差异可能 接受检查。根据他们对性体验调查的回答， 参与者将被要求描述与以下情况相关的情况 要么：a)涉及酒精的性侵和不涉及酒精的性侵犯， B)性侵犯和类似的社交场合，不涉及 性侵犯，或c)最近的约会。具体的假设将被检验。 关于：a)含酒精和不含酒精之间的异同 性侵犯，b)性侵犯和类似的社交场合，c) 女性；S和男性对性侵的看法，以及d)非裔美国人的 以及高加索人的性侵经历。衡量过去误解的标准 约会经历，强奸支持的信念，社交技能，酒精 期望，对饮酒女性的刻板印象，通常的饮酒行为， 与酒精有关的问题也将包括在内。这些变量将是 用于结构方程建模分析，以检验 艾比和她的同事们研究了酒精在性侵犯中的作用。 未来的数据也将从这两个相同的人那里收集 几年后，这样模型也可以被纵向处理。这个 这项拟议的研究结果将对酒精产生直接影响 以及性侵犯预防和治疗服务。

Many researchers have documented that alcohol consumption and sexual assault co-occur, but detailed information is not available regarding the causal dynamics of this relationship. The goal of the proposed research is to reduce the incidence of sexual assault by explicating the relationship between alcohol consumption, misperception on sexual cues, and sexual assault. Computer-assisted self-interviews will be conducted with a representative sample of 800 African American and Caucasian women and women in the Detroit Metropolitan area who meet the study's criteria. By asking comparable questions of victims and perpetrators of sexual assault, gender differences in perceptions of alcohol's role in sexual assault can be examined. Based on their responses to the Sexual Experiences Survey, participants will be asked to describe the circumstances associated with either: a) an alcohol-involved and a no-alcohol involved sexual assault, b) a sexual assault and a similar social occasion which did not involve sexual assault, or c) a recent date. Specific hypothesis will be examined regarding similarities and differences between: a) alcohol and no-alcohol sexual assaults, b) sexual assaults and similar social occasions, c) women;s and men's perceptions of sexual assault, and d) African Americans' and Caucasians' sexual assault experiences. Measures of past misperception and dating experiences, rape supportive beliefs, social skills, alcohol expectancies, stereotypes about drinking women, usual alcohol consumption, and alcohol-related problems will be included. These variables will be used in structural equation modeling analyses to examine the model of alcohol's role in sexual assault developed by Abbey and her colleagues. Prospective data will also be collected from these same individuals two years later so that the model can also be treated longitudinally. The results of the proposed research will have direct implications for alcohol and sexual assault prevention and treatment services.
