Abstract

two types of self-report measures have been used to study heterosexual sexual aggression in general population samples / in the first, men indicated whether they had committed various forms of sexual aggression / in the second, they reported the likelihood that they would engage in forced sex if they could be assured of not being identified or punished the present article contends that rather than being differing ways of assessing the same continuum, these two approaches represent different dimensions, and that combining them results in more comprehensive information than using either one alone (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)
