Sexual assault is one of potential factors that may greatly affect an individual's sport participation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of experiencing physically or non-physically forced sexual activity on trajectories of sport participation from adolescence to young adulthood.
This study used the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) data. Group-based trajectory modeling was utilized to examine the effect of experiencing sexual assault on trajectories of sport participation from adolescence to young adulthood.
A three-group trajectory model (high-stable group, high-decreasing group, and low-stable group) best fit sport participation among male participants and a two-group trajectory model (high-decreasing group and low-stable group) best fit sport participation among female participants. Both physically and non-physically forced sexual activity did not have significant effect on trajectories of sport participation among male participants. On the other hand, non-physically forced sexual assault significantly affected sport participation trajectory among female participants.
Special care is required in developing sport promotion program for women victims of non-physically forced sexual activity. The results of this study also suggest that group-based trajectory modeling is a useful technique to examine distinct trajectories of sport participation from adolescence through young adulthood.
性侵犯是可能极大影响个人体育参与的潜在因素之一。本研究的目的是调查经历身体或非身体强迫的性活动对从青春期到青年期体育参与轨迹的影响。
本研究使用了青少年健康全国纵向研究(Add Health)的数据。基于群体的轨迹建模用于检验性侵犯经历对从青春期到青年期体育参与轨迹的影响。
三组轨迹模型(高稳定组、高下降组和低稳定组)最能拟合男性参与者的体育参与情况,两组轨迹模型(高下降组和低稳定组)最能拟合女性参与者的体育参与情况。身体强迫和非身体强迫的性活动对男性参与者的体育参与轨迹均无显著影响。另一方面,非身体强迫的性侵犯对女性参与者的体育参与轨迹有显著影响。
为非身体强迫性活动的女性受害者制定体育推广计划时需要特别关注。本研究结果还表明,基于群体的轨迹建模是一种有用的技术,可用于检验从青春期到青年期体育参与的不同轨迹。
