Beliefs that people hold about sources of harm and their personal susceptibility to harm have been shown to play an important role in their subsequent self-protection. With respect to acquaintance sexual aggression, women generally report low levels of perceived personal risk and, thus, low level preparedness to prevent or protect against this form of threat. In order to develop effective resistance efforts, a more complete understanding is needed of factors that shape perception of risk and how these factors are likely to influence-both positively and negatively-women's risk reduction and self-protection. This article addresses this need by reviewing recent literature on risk perception and identifying relevant applications of theory and findings to women's perception of risk for acquaintance sexual aggression.
人们对于伤害来源及其自身易受伤害性的看法，已被证明在他们随后的自我保护中起着重要作用。关于熟人之间的性侵犯，女性普遍报告称感知到的个人风险较低，因此，预防或抵御这种威胁形式的准备程度也较低。为了开展有效的抵抗行动，需要更全面地了解塑造风险认知的因素，以及这些因素可能如何对女性降低风险和自我保护产生积极和消极的影响。本文通过回顾近期关于风险认知的文献，并确定理论和研究结果在女性对熟人之间性侵犯风险认知方面的相关应用，来满足这一需求。
