Abstract
Sexual misconduct victimization and reporting among college students is a public health concern. This study analyzes a sample of college students to investigate sexual misconduct victimization (Individual N = 175,803; Institutional N = 33) and predictors of reporting (Individual N = 83,711; N = 27,487; Institutional N = 33). Results show nonbinary, transgender, and cisgender women face higher victimization rates compared to cisgender men; sexual minority students experience higher victimization rates than heterosexual students. Cisgender men are less likely to report their sexual misconduct victimization than cisgender women. Gay, lesbian, bisexual, and multi-orientation students are more likely to report than heterosexual students. Understanding these dynamics is essential for improving institutional sexual misconduct responses.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Criminal Justice is an international journal intended to fill the present need for the dissemination of new information, ideas and methods, to both practitioners and academicians in the criminal justice area. The Journal is concerned with all aspects of the criminal justice system in terms of their relationships to each other. Although materials are presented relating to crime and the individual elements of the criminal justice system, the emphasis of the Journal is to tie together the functioning of these elements and to illustrate the effects of their interactions. Articles that reflect the application of new disciplines or analytical methodologies to the problems of criminal justice are of special interest.
Since the purpose of the Journal is to provide a forum for the dissemination of new ideas, new information, and the application of new methods to the problems and functions of the criminal justice system, the Journal emphasizes innovation and creative thought of the highest quality.
