The topic of campus sexual assault has received much media attention recently, prompting scholars to examine media effects on students' attitudes and behaviors. A survey of 567 American college students examined how their media exposure is related to issue engagement, perceived responsibility, and acceptance of rape myths. Results indicated that reading newspaper stories about campus sexual assault might contribute to college students' victim blaming. Among other media channels examined, social media were found to be highly correlated with students' engagement with the issue. We also found that victim blaming and acceptance of rape myths could be reduced by raising students' perceived importance of the issue. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed in detail.
校园性侵犯这一话题近来受到了媒体的广泛关注，促使学者们去研究媒体对学生态度和行为的影响。一项针对567名美国大学生的调查，考察了他们接触媒体的情况与对该问题的参与度、感知到的责任以及对强奸谬见的接受程度之间的关系。结果表明，阅读关于校园性侵犯的报纸报道可能会导致大学生指责受害者。在考察的其他媒体渠道中，发现社交媒体与学生对该问题的参与度高度相关。我们还发现，提高学生对该问题的感知重要性可以减少指责受害者的行为以及对强奸谬见的接受程度。文中详细讨论了理论和实际意义。
