摘要

青少年在调查中拒绝回答有关性虐待的问题可能表明在披露方面存在挑战。目的评价青少年性虐待调查中缺失选项和拒绝选项的使用情况,探讨拒绝选项的原因。参与者和环境:7329名墨西哥青少年(15-18岁)在2021年4月至7月期间参加了一项在线调查。方法使用适用于墨西哥西班牙语的ISPCAN儿童虐待筛查工具对性侵犯进行测量。参与者可以选择拒绝回答与性虐待有关的问题,并有机会说明他们这样做的原因。计算拒绝百分比,并通过语义内容分析分析拒绝动机。结果4.34%的青少年选择空白,4.31%的青少年选择拒绝。两种反应类型在性取向上存在显著差异,同性恋和双性恋参与者的拒绝率更高。从拒绝动机的分析中可以得出四种类型:直接披露、间接披露、思考事件时的不适以及回忆的困难。结论性取向对性暴力的调查结果存在差异。这项研究强调了适应性调查方法的重要性,以提高暴力调查数据的可靠性,保护参与者的福祉,并尊重他们对自己的反应进行控制的需要。

Implications of refusal to answer in sexual violence Surveys: An analysis based on sexual orientation among Mexican adolescents

Background

Adolescents' refusal to answer questions about sexual abuse in surveys may indicate challenges in disclosure.

Objective

To assess the use of missing and refusal options in a sexual abuse survey among adolescents and examine reasons for refusal.

Participants

and Setting: A convenience sample of 7329 Mexican adolescents (aged 15–18 years) participated in an online survey between April and July 2021.

Methods

Sexual abuse was measured using the ISPCAN Child Abuse Screening Tool adapted for Mexican Spanish. Participants were given the option of refusing to answer questions related to sexual abuse and were also given the opportunity to indicate their reasons for doing so. Refusal percentages were calculated, and motives were analyzed through semantic content analysis.

Results

The analysis revealed that 4.34 % of the adolescents left questions blank, and 4.31 % selected the refusal option. Significant differences by sexual orientation were found for both response types, with higher rates of refusals among homosexual and bisexual participants. Four categories emerged from the analysis of refusal motives: direct disclosure, indirect disclosure, discomfort when thinking about the event, and difficulties with recall.

Conclusions

Survey responses about sexual violence differ by sexual orientation. This study underscores the importance of adaptive survey methodologies to enhance data reliability in surveys on violence, protect participants' well-being and respect their need for control of over their responses.
