“…Some have shown that the items in the scale rotate onto 3 (Hall, Howard, & Boezio, 1986) or 4 (Briere, Malamuth, & Check, 1985) factors. Others, however, report that the scale retained its original single factor structure (Krahe, 1988;Margolin, Miller, & Moran, 1989). In our factor analysis, a single factor emerged.…”

This study investigated whether students at a large, public university were receiving sexual assault resource information, whether the information was informative, and whether it was successful in dispelling commonly held rape myths. Findings suggest that students may not be receiving sexual assault information even though it was available on campus. If students reported receiving sexual assault information, they did not report much knowledge about its contents. In addition, knowledge of resources was not indicative of a lowered belief in rape myths. However, female students were less likely to believe in rape myths compared to male students. Students recommended innovative ways the university could disseminate information and these suggestions are discussed.

These results support findings from previous studies of rape attitudes in other professional groups. Better knowledge and enlightened attitudes amongst health care staff can have a significant impact on the management of sexual assault and influence the likelihood of victims presenting for treatment. In conclusion, this study emphasizes the importance of teaching about sexual violence in British medical schools.

“…The expectation exists that such material (consenting sex) would not have pernicious effects on viewers because such material becomes linked to prosocial feelings and actions promoting consent and respect. By contrast, the research associated with pornography attempts to study the aggression related to sexual behavior (Burt, 1983;Malamuth & Briere, 1986;Margolin, Miller, & Moran, 1989). The application of this to the mass media is that the material inciting negative attitudes would be linked to the violence (aggression) in the material and not the sexual content.…”

This paper quantitative(y summarizes the literature examining the association between acceptance of rape myths and exposure to pornography. I n this meta-analysis, nonexperimental methodology shows almost no eflect (exposure to pornography does not increase rape myth acceptance), while experimental studies show positive effect (exposure to pornography does increase rape myth acceptance). Although the experimental studies demonstrate that violent pornography has more effect than nonviolent pornography, nonviolent pornography still demonstrates an effect.
