Sexual Experiences Survey: A research instrument investigating sexual aggression and victimization.

Author Mary P. Koss

Abstract

Developed a survey capable of reflecting hidden cases of rape and of documenting a dimensional view of sexual aggression/sexual victimization. This survey examines degrees of coercion used or experienced in sexual activity. Results obtained from 3,862 university students support a dimensional view. The viability of a survey approach to sample selection for future rape research is discussed. (4 ref) (APA PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
