A representative sample of German residents (N = 5397) was surveyed with the aim of studying their acceptance of contemporary rape myths (RMA), using items from the Acceptance of Modern Myths About Sexual Aggression Scale [AMMSA; Gerger et al., 2007] in relation to demographic variables (e.g., gender, age), intolerant belief systems (e.g., sexism, islamophobia), the ideologies of rightwing authoritarianism (RWA), and social dominance orientation (SDO), as well as gender identification. Age showed a U-shaped relationship with RMA, whereas gender was unrelated to RMA. For men (women), greater identification with their gender was associated with higher (lower) RMA. Substantial correlations of RMA with intolerant belief systems support the idea of a schema of intolerance. Although RWA and SDO were both related to RMA, only RWA explained unique variance beyond the effects of intolerant belief systems. Results are discussed in comparison to prior studies using mainly student samples.
一项针对德国居民（N=5397）的代表性样本调查旨在研究他们对当代强奸神话（RMA）的接受程度，使用来自《关于性侵犯的现代神话接受度量表》（AMMSA；Gerger 等人，2007 年）中的项目，涉及人口统计学变量（例如，性别、年龄）、不容忍的信仰体系（例如，性别歧视、仇外心理）、右翼威权主义（RWA）和社会支配倾向（SDO）以及性别认同。年龄与 RMA 呈 U 型关系，而性别与 RMA 无关。对于男性（女性），与他们的性别认同越强烈，RMA 就越高（低）。RMA 与不容忍的信仰体系之间存在大量相关性，这支持了不容忍模式的观点。尽管 RWA 和 SDO 都与 RMA 相关，但只有 RWA 解释了除不容忍信仰体系之外的独特方差。结果与主要使用学生样本的先前研究进行了比较。
