Abstract

Objective: To date the relationships between rape myths and other psychological constructs within males who have committed rape have not been explored sufficiently. Considered as a risk factor for the perpetration of rape it seems significant to examine their association to individual behavioral and personality characteristics more in detail.

Methods: Therefore, we analyzed the relations between self-reported rape myth acceptance and the self-evaluation of aggressiveness, assertiveness, hypersexuality, social anxiety, sexual anxiety, SCID personality characteristics and the external assessment of psychopathy within a sample of N=569 males convicted of rape.

Results: The results showed significant correlations with all constructs except sexual anxiety, antisocial personality and psychopathy. Furthermore, findings indicated the assignment of the relevant variables to two principal components: rape myths, aggressiveness, hypersexuality, paranoid and narcissistic personality (K1) on the one hand and psychopathy and antisocial personality (K2) on the other hand.

Discussion: Following the results, rape myths are contextualized within the investigated psychological constructs and their potential differentiation from psychopathy and antisocial personality is discussed.

[强奸迷思与被判强奸罪的男性行为和人格特征之间的关系]。

目的：迄今为止，强奸迷思与实施强奸的男性的其他心理结构之间的关系尚未得到充分探讨。强奸迷思被认为是强奸犯罪的一个风险因素，因此，更详细地研究强奸迷思与个人行为和人格特征之间的关系似乎很有意义：因此，我们分析了被判定犯有强奸罪的 N=569 名男性样本中，自我报告的强奸迷思接受度与攻击性、自信心、性欲亢进、社交焦虑、性焦虑的自我评价、SCID 人格特征和心理变态外部评估之间的关系：结果表明，除性焦虑、反社会人格和心理变态外，其他所有建构因素之间均存在显着相关性。此外，研究结果表明，相关变量被归入两个主成分：一方面是强奸迷思、攻击性、性欲亢进、偏执和自恋人格（K1），另一方面是心理变态和反社会人格（K2）：讨论：根据研究结果，将强奸迷思纳入所调查的心理结构中，并讨论其与心理变态和反社会人格的潜在区别。
