The study examined sexual victimization among college students with disabilities ( = 187) using an online survey at a large southern university. Students reported one or multiple disabilities: physical disabilities, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)/Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), learning disabilities, and emotional disabilities, with most students reporting more than one disability. Overall, 71% of the sample experienced one or more types of lifetime sexual assault and/or rape, and 51% reported sexual victimization since attending the university. There were no significant differences in experiencing sexual assault and/or rape between students with one disability compared to students with more than one disability. Considering the high rates of sexual victimization among students with disabilities, and the dearth of research focusing on the context of sexual assault in this population, future research and research-based prevention initiatives are needed. Findings can inform future prevention efforts to address sexual violence among students with disabilities on campuses.
本研究使用南方一所大型大学的在线调查，调查了残疾大学生（ = 187）中的性受害情况。学生报告了一种或多种残疾：身体残疾、注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）/注意缺陷障碍（ADD）、学习障碍和情绪障碍，大多数学生报告了多种残疾。总体而言，样本中有 71%的人经历过一种或多种类型的终生性侵犯和/或强奸，51%的人报告自上大学以来遭受过性侵犯。有单一残疾的学生和有多种残疾的学生在经历性侵犯和/或强奸方面没有显著差异。考虑到残疾学生中性侵犯的高发生率，以及缺乏针对这一人群性侵犯背景的研究，需要进行未来的研究和基于研究的预防措施。研究结果可为校园中残疾学生的性暴力问题提供未来的预防工作依据。
