Abstract Details

2014, Master of Arts, Miami University, Psychology.
Two types of risk perception, risk recognition and behavioral response, were examined as mediators of child to adult and adult to adult sexual revictimization through the conditional effects of alcohol use during an 8-month longitudinal study of 490 college and community women. Substance-related (SR) and forcible sexual assault were examined as distinct types of adult victimization. Behavioral response mediated the link between child sexual abuse (CSA) and SR sexual assault, conditional upon levels of alcohol use. CSA predicted behavioral response at low levels of alcohol use which in turn predicted SR sexual assault at Time 1. Alcohol use moderated the links between CSA and risk perception, and forcible sexual assault and risk perception, but not between SR sexual assault and risk perception. Risk perception and alcohol use did not interact to predict prospective sexual assault. Results highlight the need to examine multiple types of risk perception and sexual assault.
