An Empirical Evaluation of a Program Designed to Reduce the Risk of Multiple Sexual Victimization.

Breitenbecher, Kimberly Hanson; Gidycz, Christine A.

Journal of Interpersonal Violence, v13 n4 p472-88 Aug 1998

A program to reduce women's risk of multiple sexual victimization was designed and evaluated. Participants (N=406) responded to surveys assessing history of sexual assault, dating, communication, and knowledge about sexual assault. The program was not found to be effective, nor was there a relationship to participants' histories of victimization. (Author/EMK)
