ABSTRACT

Measuring sexual assault experiences is considered a methodological challenge in survey research. Researchers can test the validity of sexual assault measures by comparing responses to different, albeit related, measures of sexual assault to determine if they identify similar groups of women. The goal of this study was to compare two measures of sexual assault victimization to determine if women report experiencing sexual assault in both assessments. Cisgender college women (n = 902) completed two separate measures of sexual victimization: the Sexual Coercion Inventory (SCI) and Sexual Experience Survey-Short Form Victimization (SES-SFV). Responses to both measures were coded to identify different sexual assault experiences (i.e., unwanted touching, attempted, and completed oral, vaginal, or anal rape) resulting from verbal coercion, threats of force, and use of force since enrolling in the university. Results suggested the SES-SFV produced higher overall rates of sexual assault experiences than the SCI. Specifically, the SES-SFV elicited more non-consensual sexual experiences resulting from threats and use of force, whereas the SCI elicited more non-consensual sexual experiences resulting from verbal coercion. Findings suggested discrepant responding across the two measures. Development of comprehensive sexual assault measures that fully capture women’s victimization experiences is warranted.

通过两次行为评估检查女性进入大学以来的性侵犯受害经历

摘要

测量性侵犯经历被认为是调查研究中的方法论挑战。研究人员可以通过比较对不同但相关的性侵犯措施的反应来测试性侵犯措施的有效性,以确定他们是否识别出相似的女性群体。本研究的目的是比较两种性侵犯受害的衡量标准,以确定女性是否报告在两种评估中都经历过性侵犯。顺性别大学女性 ( n= 902) 完成了两项独立的性受害测量:性胁迫量表 (SCI) 和性体验调查 - 简短形式受害 (SES-SFV)。对这两种措施的反应进行了编码,以识别自进入大学以来因口头胁迫、武力威胁和使用武力而导致的不同性侵犯经历(即不想要的触摸、企图和完成的口交、阴道或肛门强奸)。结果表明,与 SCI 相比,SES-SFV 产生的性侵犯经历总体发生率更高。具体来说,SES-SFV 引发了更多由威胁和使用武力导致的非自愿性体验,而 SCI 引发了更多由口头胁迫导致的非自愿性体验。调查结果表明,这两项措施的反应存在差异。
