Rape myth acceptance (RMA), perceived barriers, and self-efficacy were examined as predictors of likelihood to report different types of rape to law enforcement among 409 undergraduates. Participants had lower likelihood to report incapacitated compared to physically forced rape. Men had lower reporting likelihood than women for rape perpetrated by the same and opposite sex, and were more likely to perceive several barriers. RMA and perceived barriers predicted a lower likelihood to report several types of rape. Among men, higher self-efficacy predicted increased reporting likelihood. Targeting RMA and decreasing perceived barriers is imperative to increase college students' likelihood to report rape to local and campus law enforcement.
在409名本科生中,研究了对强奸谬见的认同(RMA)、感知到的障碍和自我效能感,将其作为向执法部门报告不同类型强奸案可能性的预测因素。与身体强迫强奸相比,参与者报告无行为能力强奸的可能性较低。对于同性和异性实施的强奸,男性报告的可能性低于女性,并且更有可能感知到多种障碍。RMA和感知到的障碍预示着报告几种类型强奸的可能性较低。在男性中,较高的自我效能感预示着报告可能性的增加。针对RMA并减少感知到的障碍对于提高大学生向地方和校园执法部门报告强奸案的可能性至关重要。
