Background

Individuals who are LGB—lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB)—are at high risk of being victimized by intimate partner violence and sexual abuse. Although research has begun to uncover the extent to which individuals experience both revictimization and polyvictimization, little is known about the extent of these two types of victimization among LGB persons.

Methods

Data were drawn from the 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS), a nationally representative telephone survey of eighteen thousand US residents, weighted to represent 232,458,335 proportional (49%) male and (51%) female adults aged 18 and older. Victimization was measured based on individuals’ responses to a series of questions about psychological aggression, coercive control and entrapment, physical violence, and sexual violence. Patterns of recurrent and poly victimization across LGB people and heterosexual people were compared.

Results

The findings indicate that LGB individuals face a greater risk of victimization than heterosexuals. Further, they are more likely to experience revictimization and polyvictimization. Sex differences emerged in that LGB females were likely to be victimized, revictimized, and polyvictimized when compared to their heterosexual counterparts. Fewer differences emerged between LGB males and male heterosexuals.

Conclusion

This research suggests that LGB individuals face greater victimization risks, which is important because they may need special and specific interventions. Such interventions may be able to reduce not just an initial victimization but subsequent ones as well.

性取向,复活和多残杀

背景

男女同性恋,双性恋(LGB)等LGB个人极易遭受亲密伴侣的暴力行为和性虐待之害。尽管研究已经开始揭示个人经历重新受害和多受害的程度,但对于LGB人群中这两类受害的程度知之甚少。

方法

数据来自2010年全国亲密伴侣和性暴力调查(NISVS),这项全国性的电话调查针对18,000名美国居民,加权后代表232,458,335岁的18岁及以上成年男性(占49%)和女性(占51%)。根据个人对一系列有关心理攻击,强制控制和诱捕,身体暴力和性暴力的问题的回答,对被害程度进行衡量。比较了LGB人和异性恋人的反复发作和多人受害模式。

结果

研究结果表明,与同性恋者相比,LGB个人面临更大的受害风险。此外,他们更有可能经历重新受害和多受害。性别差异的出现是,与异性恋者相比,LGB女性可能会受到伤害,重新受害和多受害。LGB男性和男性异性恋者之间出现的差异较小。

结论

这项研究表明,LGB个人面临更大的受害风险,这很重要,因为他们可能需要特殊的特定干预措施。这样的干预措施不仅可以减少最初的受害,而且还可以减少随后的受害。
