Abstract:
Emerging adults are especially vulnerable to experiencing alcohol-related sexual assault. While bystanders play a critical role in preventing sexual assault, little is known about how bystander alcohol intoxication affects the intervention process-particularly in naturalistic settings. We recruited 315 emerging adult bargoers ages 21-29 (46% women; 28% non-college attending; 81% White) from a high-density bar area to provide responses to a sexual assault vignette and complete a breath alcohol concentration test. In this field-based study, we found a negative direct association between intoxication and appraisal of risk in the hypothetical sexual assault situation. We also found a negative indirect relation of intoxication on perceptions of personal responsibility to intervene and confidence in the ability to intervene, statistically mediated through reduced risk appraisal. Findings add to the limited literature in laboratory-based settings suggesting that bystander intoxication interferes with sexual assault intervention and help inform effective bystander intervention programming for emerging adults.
摘要:
新兴成年人特别容易遭受与酒精有关的性侵犯。虽然旁观者在防止性侵犯方面发挥着关键作用,对旁观者酒精中毒如何影响干预过程知之甚少,尤其是在自然环境中。我们从高密度酒吧区域招募了315名年龄在21-29岁之间的新兴成年酒保(46%为女性;28%为非大学就读;81%为白人),以提供对性侵犯小插图的反应并完成呼气酒精浓度测试。在这项实地研究中,我们发现,在假设的性侵犯情况下,中毒与风险评估之间存在负向直接关联.我们还发现,中毒与个人干预责任的看法和对干预能力的信心之间存在负面的间接关系,通过降低风险评估进行统计中介。研究结果增加了实验室环境中的有限文献,表明旁观者中毒会干扰性侵犯干预,并有助于为新兴成年人提供有效的旁观者干预计划。
