This study explored the relationship between sexual double standard and rape supportive attitudes in regard to an individual's likelihood to perpetrate sexual aggression. We examined an adolescent sample of 448 boys from Peru, of whom 148 (33.3%) reported to have committed sexual aggression. Sexual contact with an unwilling partner was perpetrated by 24.8% of the total sample, sexual coercion by 14.3%, attempted rape by 12.5%, and finally, rape was perpetrated by 10.3%. In all these types of aggression, the most frequent victim was a dating partner. Compared to non-aggressors, male aggressors reported more sexual double standard and supportive attitudes towards rape. Logistic regression analyses revealed that the most relevant variable in the prediction of sexual aggression was the subject having been a victim of sexual abuse during adolescence and having rape supportive attitudes. Our findings suggest that violent attitudes are more important than the endorsement of non-egalitarian beliefs (sexual double standard) in the perpetration of sexual violence. These findings provide data from Peru, which contribute to the worldwide data on risk factors for sexual aggression in adolescent males.

青少年性侵略的预测因素:性别优势与强奸支持态度

这项研究探讨了双重标准和强奸支持态度之间关于个人进行性侵略的可能性之间的关系。我们检查了来自秘鲁的448名男孩的青春期样本,其中148名(33.3%)报告曾发生过性侵害。与不愿意伴侣的性接触占总样本的24.8%,性胁迫占14.3%,企图强奸占12.5%,最后,强奸占10.3%。在所有这些类型的侵略中,最常见的受害者是约会对象。与非侵略者相比,男性侵略者报告了更多的性双重标准和对强奸的支持态度。Logistic回归分析显示,在性侵害预测中最相关的变量是受试者在青春期遭受性虐待并拥有强奸支持态度。我们的发现表明,在进行性暴力方面,暴力态度比认可非平等信仰(性双重标准)更为重要。这些发现提供了来自秘鲁的数据,这些数据为有关青春期男性性侵害危险因素的全球数据做出了贡献。
