Per Title IX of the Higher Education Amendments of 1972, many university employees are mandated reporters of sexual assault. University employees ( = 174) and students ( = 783) completed an online survey assessing knowledge and opinions of this reporting requirement. University employees and students generally reported being quite knowledgeable of reporting requirements. Most university employees indicated they would report an incident disclosed by a student, but students were fairly ambivalent about whether they would disclose to faculty members. Nearly one in five students (17.2%) indicated that Title IX reporting requirements decreased their disclosure likelihood. These findings suggest that mandated reporting policies, as well as how they are presented to students and faculty, should be examined in order to increase compliance and facilitate disclosure.
根据1972年《高等教育修正案》第九条,许多大学员工是性侵犯事件的强制报告人。大学员工(n = 174)和学生(n = 783)完成了一项在线调查,以评估对这一报告要求的了解和看法。大学员工和学生普遍表示对报告要求相当了解。大多数大学员工表示他们会报告学生披露的事件,但学生对于是否会向教职员工披露则相当矛盾。近五分之一的学生(17.2%)表示第九条的报告要求降低了他们披露的可能性。这些发现表明,应该对强制报告政策以及向学生和教职员工传达这些政策的方式进行审查,以提高合规性并促进披露。
