Over 100,000 women present for emergency care after sexual assault (SA) annually in the United States. To our knowledge, no large prospective studies have assessed SA survivor experiences with police. Women SA survivors enrolled at 13 sites ( = 706), and 630 survivors reported on their police interactions. Most women were interested in speaking with police, spoke with police, and reported positive experiences. Latinas and women with lower education and income were less likely to speak with police. Trauma and posttraumatic stress symptoms were associated with more negative experiences. Qualitative comments provide key points for police to consider when speaking with survivors.
在美国，每年有超过10万名女性在遭受性侵犯（SA）后寻求紧急护理。据我们所知，尚无大型前瞻性研究评估过性侵犯幸存者与警方打交道的经历。在13个地点招募了遭受性侵犯的女性幸存者（n = 706），其中630名幸存者报告了她们与警方的互动情况。大多数女性有兴趣与警方交谈，与警方进行了交谈，并报告了积极的经历。拉丁裔以及教育程度和收入较低的女性与警方交谈的可能性较小。创伤和创伤后应激症状与更多负面经历相关。定性评论为警方与幸存者交谈时提供了需要考虑的关键点。
