In this study, the perceptions of victim intoxication and the drinking context (i.e., who purchased the drinks) were investigated. Men and women mock jurors (N = 158) read a rape trial summary in which the victim was intoxicated or sober, and either the victim or the perpetrator purchased the drinks. Overall, participants who perceived a victim as intoxicated were less likely to render guilty verdicts and made lower ratings of victim credibility. In addition, when the perpetrator purchased the drinks, participants were more likely to render guilty verdicts and made more negative judgments about the defendant than when the victim bought the drinks. Mediation analyses explained the relationship between the independent variables and verdict. The results are discussed in terms of the factors that influence juror perceptions of rape cases in court.
在这项研究中，调查了受害者醉酒程度和饮酒情境（即谁购买了饮料）的感知。男性和女性模拟陪审员（N=158）阅读了一份强奸案审判摘要，其中受害者醉酒或清醒，购买饮料的是受害者或施害者。总的来说，认为受害者醉酒的参与者更不可能做出有罪判决，并且对受害者的可信度评价较低。此外，当施害者购买饮料时，与受害者购买饮料时相比，参与者更有可能做出有罪判决，并对被告做出更负面的判断。中介分析解释了自变量与判决之间的关系。结果根据影响法庭上陪审员对强奸案件看法的因素进行了讨论。
