Older adults are not regarded as sexual and are widely excluded from sexual violence (SV) research, policies, and practice; little is known about SV against older adults and its prevention.
An 8-database scoping review explored perceptions of SV against older adults, barriers to prevention, and solutions for prevention. Included were peer-reviewed and gray sources published since 2010, supported by primary research, on perceptions of SV in later life and prevention. A thematic analysis was conducted to explore key themes.
Of 148 potentially relevant sources returned, 95 were fully read after screening titles and abstracts; 19 were critically appraised and 18 were assessed for analysis. Seven overarching themes emerged, surrounding (a) knowledge and awareness, (b) research, (c) policy changes and development, (d) intersectional prejudice, (e) SV being taboo, (f) sociocultural differences, and (g) confusion regarding the definition and nature of SV.
These findings offer relevant considerations for practice, policy, and research, which will be further discussed.
老年人不被视为有性需求的群体，并且在性暴力研究、政策及实践中普遍被排除在外；针对老年人的性暴力及其预防措施鲜为人知。
一项对8个数据库的范围综述探讨了对老年人性暴力的认知、预防障碍及预防措施。纳入自2010年以来发表的、有初步研究支持的、关于晚年性暴力认知与预防的同行评议文献及灰色文献。进行主题分析以探究关键主题。
在检索出的148篇潜在相关文献中，筛选标题和摘要后有95篇被全文阅读；19篇被严格评估，18篇被纳入分析。出现了七个总体主题，围绕着（a）知识与认知、（b）研究、（c）政策变化与发展、（d）交叉偏见、（e）性暴力是禁忌、（f）社会文化差异以及（g）对性暴力定义和性质的困惑。
这些发现为实践﹑政策和研究提供了相关考量因素，将进一步展开讨论。
