Heavy episodic drinking (HED) and hookups are risk factors for college women's sexual assault (SA). Black women engage in these behaviors less frequently than White women. We prospectively examined HED and hookups as mechanisms of incapacitated SA (ISA) and other SA (OSA) risks for Black and White first-year college women and sociocontextual factors that may contribute differentially to risk. In mediation analyses, Black women's less frequent HED predicted lower ISA. SA characteristics (e.g., setting) also differed by race. Mechanisms and types of assault risk may not be the same for all college women, an important consideration for intervention efforts.
大量偶发性饮酒(HED)和一夜情是大学女生遭受性侵犯(SA)的风险因素。黑人女性比白人女性更少参与这些行为。我们前瞻性地研究了HED和一夜情作为黑人与白人大学一年级女生无能力性侵犯(ISA)和其他性侵犯(OSA)风险的机制,以及可能对风险有不同影响的社会背景因素。在中介分析中,黑人女性较少的HED频率预示着较低的ISA发生率。性侵犯的特征(如发生场景)也因种族而异。对于所有大学女生来说,性侵犯风险的机制和类型可能并不相同,这是干预措施需要重点考虑的问题。
