Abstract

Consent is a purposive agreement to engage mutually in specific actions, given freely and without coercion. In the context of sexual interactions, active consent refers to an unambiguous and freely given agreement to participate, absent of any coercion by either party. Conversely, rape myths, stemming from rape culture, are false beliefs and misconceptions about sexual assault that typically frame women as victims and men as perpetrators.. The current study assessed how rape myth disavowal connects to positive perceptions of active consent and how acceptance of active consent practices is mediated by personal context (i.e., gender, personality, and sexual victimization experience) and ideologies (i.e., adherence to socialized sex roles, feminism, and liberalism). The current study utilized a purposive sample of university students (n = 667) from six universities in the United States. Hypotheses were tested using a series of ordinary least squares regression models. Rape Myth disavowal was found to be a significant predictor of active consent controlling for several ideological and personal context variables. Sexual victimization experience was not found to be a significant predictor of active consent.

分配同意：性和性别角色中的强奸神话。

同意是一种有目的的协议，可以自由地、不受强迫地相互参与具体行动。在性互动的背景下，主动同意是指明确和自由地同意参与，没有任何一方的强迫。相反，源于强奸文化的强奸神话是对性侵犯的错误信念和误解，通常将女性视为受害者，将男性视为肇事者。目前的研究评估了对强奸神话的否认如何与对主动同意的积极看法联系起来，以及对主动同意实践的接受如何受到个人背景（即性别、个性和性受害经历）和意识形态（即对社会化性别角色、女权主义和自由主义的坚持）的调节。目前的研究利用了来自美国六所大学的大学生（n = 667）的有目的样本。使用一系列普通最小二乘回归模型检验假设。强奸神话否认被发现是一个重要的预测积极同意控制几个意识形态和个人背景变量。性受害经历并不是主动同意的显著预测因子。

With its dual focus on victims and victimizers, the journal will publish material that addresses the causes, effects, treatment, and prevention of all types of violence. JIV only publishes reports on individual studies in which the scientific method is applied to the study of some aspect of interpersonal violence. Research may use qualitative or quantitative methods.
