Abstract

This study explores whether components of lifestyle exposure theory can operate as predictors of adolescent sexual violence perpetration. Multivariate logistic regression models for rare events were used to assess the impact that risky behaviors, victimization, and sexual activity have on adolescent sexual violence perpetration and to explore sex differences in offending. In a sample of 85,004 U.S. adolescents' responses to the 2022 minnesota Student Survey, multivariate logistic analyses for rare events revealed that older students and males were more likely to engage in sexual violence. Several risky behaviors (i.e. fighting, drug use, running away from home), exposure to domestic violence, parental and sexual abuse, and sexual behaviors increased the risk of adolescent sexual violence perpetration. Interestingly, some factors had slightly similar effects across sex (i.e. age, running away, parental and sexual abuse, early sexual initiation, and transactional sex). The findings are discussed in the context of existing research on adolescents who commit sexual assault, with recommendations for policy and future research areas.

青少年性暴力行为的性别差异研究:生活方式暴露理论的检验。
本研究探讨生活方式暴露理论的组成部分是否可以作为青少年性暴力犯罪的预测因素。采用罕见事件的多变量logistic回归模型来评估风险行为、受害和性活动对青少年性暴力犯罪的影响,并探讨犯罪的性别差异。在85004名美国人的样本中青少年对2022年明尼苏达州学生调查的回应,对罕见事件的多变量逻辑分析显示,年龄较大的学生和男性更容易发生性暴力。一些危险行为(即打架、吸毒、离家出走)、遭受家庭暴力、父母虐待和性虐待以及性行为增加了青少年性暴力犯罪的风险。有趣的是,有些因素对性别的影响略有相似(如年龄、逃跑、父母和性虐待、早期性启蒙和交易性行为)。研究结果在现有的关于青少年性侵犯的研究背景下进行了讨论,并为政策和未来的研究领域提出了建议。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Child Sexual Abuse is interdisciplinary and provides an essential interface for researchers, academicians, attorneys, clinicians, and practitioners. The journal advocates for increased networking in the sexual abuse field, greater dissemination of information and research, a higher priority for this international epidemic, and development of effective assessment, intervention, and prevention programs. Divided into sections to provide clear information, the journal covers research issues, clinical issues, legal issues, prevention programs, case studies, and brief reports, focusing on three subject groups - child and adolescent victims of sexual abuse or incest, adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse or incest, and sexual abuse or incest offenders.
