Abstract

This study aimed to understand how the endorsement of dysfunctional sexual beliefs is associated with sexual self-esteem and sexually aggressive behavior in male college students; it further tested the mediating role of sexual self-esteem in the relationship between sexual beliefs and sexual aggression. Results revealed significant relationships between dysfunctional sexual beliefs and sexual aggression; even so, no mediating effects were found.

Findings suggest that students’ beliefs about sexuality, namely, a conservative pattern of sexual beliefs, work as predisposing factors for sexual aggression. The current results add to the knowledge on the preventive targets regarding sexual offending behavior in community samples.

 抽象的

本研究旨在了解男大学生对功能失调性信念的认可与性自尊和性攻击行为之间的关系。它进一步测试了性自尊在性信仰和性侵犯之间关系中的中介作用。结果揭示了功能失调的性观念与性攻击之间的显着关系；即便如此，也没有发现中介效应。

研究结果表明，学生对性的信念，即保守的性信念模式，是性攻击的诱发因素。目前的结果增加了对社区样本中性犯罪行为预防目标的了解。
