Tóm tắt

OBJECTIVE: More than 30% of women who experience sexual assault (SA) during college experience sexual revictimization (SRV) prior to graduating. Current SA interventions have been developed with predominantly White samples and most do not focus on reducing SRV or include effective alcohol reduction techniques. The purpose of the current study was to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a new intervention designed to reduce SRV in Black and White college women. METHOD: A sample of 59 women ( RESULTS: Acceptability and feasibility of the intervention were good and suggested that cultural specificity was important for Black women. However, attrition was higher than expected and barriers to participating were noted for Black women. CONCLUSIONS: These preliminary findings highlight the potential importance as well as the challenges in developing culturally specific SA interventions for college women.
