摘要
背景:在美国,每年有超过100,000名妇女在性侵犯(SA)后接受紧急护理。没有大规模的前瞻性研究评估SA幸存者与警察的经历。目的:评估SA幸存者与警察的经历。方法:对在12个地点(n = 706)接受SA护理检查的急诊女性进行了大规模的纵向研究。结果:在第六周(n = 630),大多数女性有兴趣与警察交谈(75%),与警察交谈,并报告积极的经历。拉丁裔和收入较低的妇女较少与警察交谈(χ2 = 4.76, p = 0.0370; χ2 = 11.37, p = 0.0008)。有更大创伤后压力和先前创伤的幸存者报告了更糟糕的警察经历。定性评论为警方提供了考虑的要点。讨论:本研究显示了与警察的高度接触和整体满意度。然而,在拉丁裔、社会经济地位较低的幸存者和有过生活创伤的幸存者之间,差异仍然存在。
Experiences of Women Sexual Assault Survivors With Police in the Early Aftermath of Assault: Results From a Large-scale Prospective Study.
Background: Over 100,000 women present for emergency care after sexual assault (SA) annually in the United States. No large-scale prospective studies have assessed SA survivor experiences with police.
Aims: To evaluate SA survivor experiences with the police.
Methods: A large-scale longitudinal study was conducted of women who received SA nurse examiner examinations after presenting to the emergency department following SA at 12 sites (n = 706).
Results: At six weeks (n = 630), most women were interested in speaking with the police (75%), spoke with police, and reported positive experiences. Latinas and women with lower income were less likely to speak with police (χ2 = 4.76, p = 0.0370; χ2 = 11.37, p = 0.0008). Survivors with greater posttraumatic stress and previous trauma report worse experiences with police. Qualitative comments provide key points for police to consider.
Discussion: This study demonstrates high contact and overall satisfaction with police. However, disparities remain among Latinas, survivors with lower socioeconomic status, and survivors with previous life trauma.
