To examine effects of childhood abuse on adult rape, 1,887 female Navy recruits were surveyed. Overall 35% of recruits had been raped and 57% had experienced childhood physical abuse (CPA) and/or childhood sexual abuse (CSA). Controlling for CPA, rape was significantly (4.8 times) more likely among women who had experienced CSA than among women who had not. In contrast, CPA (controlling for CSA) was unrelated to likelihood of adult rape. Alcohol problems and number of sex partners were examined as mediators. Although both variables predicted rape, their effects were independent of the effects of CSA. Finally, despite ethnic group differences in the prevalence of victimization, the predictors of rape did not differ significantly across ethnic groups.
为了研究童年期受虐对成年后遭强奸的影响,对1887名海军女兵新兵进行了调查。总体而言,35%的新兵曾遭强奸,57%曾经历童年期身体虐待(CPA)和/或童年期性虐待(CSA)。在控制CPA的情况下,曾经历CSA的女性遭强奸的可能性显著高于(4.8倍)未经历CSA的女性。相比之下,CPA(控制CSA)与成年后遭强奸的可能性无关。研究了酒精问题和性伴侣数量作为中介因素。虽然这两个变量都能预测强奸行为,但它们的影响独立于CSA的影响。最后,尽管不同种族群体在受害率方面存在差异,但强奸行为的预测因素在不同种族群体之间没有显著差异。
