This article describes the development of the Verbally Pressured Sexual Exploitation module of the Sexual Experiences Survey (SES)-Victimization (introduced by Koss et al., 2024). This module assesses the use of verbal or nonphysical, paraverbal pressure to obtain sexual acts without freely given permission. An interdisciplinary team of seven sexual exploitation researchers collaborated to create this module, with consultation from the full 15 member SES-V revision collaboration team. In this paper, we describe our process for developing this module. We briefly review empirical literature and theoretical frameworks (e.g., rape scripts, normative sexual scripts, intersectionality, and sex-positivity) that informed this work. Summary tables compare the SES-V items to verbal pressure items in prior versions of the SES and to other existing measures of violence. The comprehensive taxonomy developed herein includes six domains of Verbally Pressured sexual exploitation across 11 item stems. The components of the taxonomy include: positive verbal pressure, neutral verbal pressure, negative verbal pressure, substance-related pressure, postural violence, and threats to critical resources. The paper concludes with suggestions for future research, with priority on intersectional research that can illuminate the phenomenology and contexts of sexual exploitation against marginalized groups.
本文介绍了性经历调查(SES)-受害(由 Koss 等人引入,2024 年)中言语性性剥削模块的开发。该模块评估了使用言语或非身体、准言语压力来获得未经自由同意的性行为。一个由七名性剥削研究人员组成的跨学科团队合作创建了这个模块,并咨询了 SES-V 修订协作团队的全部 15 名成员。在本文中,我们描述了开发这个模块的过程。我们简要回顾了实证文献和理论框架(例如,强奸脚本、规范的性脚本、交叉性和性积极性),这些都为这项工作提供了信息。总结表将 SES-V 项目与 SES 之前版本中的言语压力项目以及其他现有的暴力衡量标准进行了比较。本文在此开发的综合分类法包括六个领域的言语性性剥削,涵盖 11 个项目干。分类法的组成部分包括:积极的言语压力、中性的言语压力、消极的言语压力、与物质有关的压力、姿势暴力和对关键资源的威胁。本文最后提出了未来研究的建议,重点是能够阐明边缘化群体遭受性剥削的现象学和背景的交叉研究。
