Sexual violence (SV) among adolescents continues to be a major public health concern with numerous consequences. Research, predominantly with male collegiate samples, has suggested an association between sports participation and SV perpetration, and has included other important risk factors such as substance use and attitudes. However, more research is needed in this area among adolescents. The current study uses latent class analysis (LCA) to examine data- driven classes of high school student athletes (N = 665) engaged in three risk factor areas for SV: sport contact level, likelihood of substance use, and attitudes dismissive of SV. Once classes were enumerated and fit separately for male and female samples, pairwise comparisons were conducted on scores on two forms of SV (perpetration of sexual harassment and unwanted sexual contact) as a function of class membership. A 5-class solution was retained for both males and females. In the female sample, regarding SV—harassment, those most likely to perpetrate sexual harassment were those characterized by high likelihood of use of cigarettes, marijuana, alcohol, vape products, and those who played any type of sport. Too few females endorsed perpetration of unwanted sexual contact for pairwise comparisons to be conducted. For males, the classes most likely to perpetrate both forms of SV were those who were likely to endorse high likelihood to use of cigarettes, marijuana, alcohol, vape products, endorse attitudes dismissive of SV, and play any type of sport but especially high contact sports. These findings implicate high school athletic spaces as important venues for sexual violence prevention efforts.

理解高中运动员体育参与、药物使用、轻视态度和性暴力行为之间关联的潜在课堂方法



青少年中的性暴力(SV)仍然是一个主要的公共卫生问题,会带来多种后果。主要针对男性大学样本的研究表明,体育参与与 SV 实施之间存在关联,并且还包括其他重要的风险因素,例如药物使用和态度。然而,在青少年这一领域还需要更多的研究。目前的研究使用潜在类别分析 (LCA) 来检查数据驱动的高中生运动员类别 (N = 665),这些运动员参与了 SV 的三个危险因素领域:运动接触水平、物质使用的可能性以及对 SV 的轻视态度。一旦分类并分别适合男性和女性样本,就根据班级成员身份对两种形式的 SV(实施性骚扰和不必要的性接触)的分数进行配对比较。男性和女性均保留 5 级解决方案。在女性样本中,关于 SV 骚扰,最有可能实施性骚扰的人是那些极有可能使用香烟、大麻、酒精、电子烟产品以及从事任何类型运动的人。很少有女性支持进行不必要的性接触,因此无法进行成对比较。对于男性来说,最有可能实施这两种形式的 SV 的阶层是那些很可能赞同高可能性使用香烟、大麻、酒精、电子烟产品、赞同对 SV 不屑一顾的态度以及参加任何类型的运动(尤其是高接触运动)的人运动的。这些发现表明高中运动场所是预防性暴力工作的重要场所。
