This systematic review critically examines research on rape myth acceptance (RMA) within a Chinese context, offering a nuanced understanding of sociocultural, legal, and historical factors that shape attitudes towards sexual violence. In total, five databases were searched: Scopus, ScienceDirect, JSTOR, ProQuest, and AIRITI Library. The inclusion criteria were restricted to peer-reviewed, quantitative studies involving Chinese populations in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan published in English or Chinese between 2000 and 2024. The initial search yielded 1,563 potential articles, reduced to 915 after removing duplicates. After screening articles based on the inclusion criteria, 16 studies were retained for data extraction and analysis. Findings highlight the influence of historically embedded Confucian values, contemporary legal frameworks, and prevailing gender norms on RMA, alongside key attitudinal, sociocultural, and demographic correlates such as adversarial sexual beliefs (ASB), sex role stereotyping, gender, age, and education. Our review also evaluates a range of RMA measurement tools used in China, including the Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale and the Male Rape Myth Acceptance Scale, critiquing their cultural applicability and validity. Despite emerging interest, RMA research in China remains underdeveloped, underscoring the need for culturally sensitive methodologies and interventions. This review concludes by discussing the unique challenges and opportunities for advancing RMA research within China's complex socio-legal landscape and offers targeted recommendations to inform policy development.

Adolescent family violence (AFV) has become a topic of increasing attention, yet our understanding of how to assess the risk of future family violence among this cohort is limited. This systematic review aimed to determine what risk assessment tools have been validated for use with AFV and investigate their predictive validity. It also sought to determine whether the literature adhered to the Risk Assessment Guidelines for the Evaluation of Efficacy statement (i.e., RAGEE guidelines). Out of 11,663 studies identified, seven met inclusion criteria and validated six instruments, including the Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth (SAVRY), Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI), Victoria Police Screening Assessment for Family Violence Risk (VP-SAFvR), Static Assessment of Family Violence Recidivism (SAFVR), Dynamic Risk Assessment for Family Violence (DYRA), and the Integrated Safety Response (ISR). The discriminant ability of the Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version (PCL-YV) was also considered in one study. Three key findings arose from this review. First, there are very few validated risk assessment tools for AFV behaviours, and variability in predictive and discriminant validity amongst those few that have been validated (with Area Under the Curve values ranging from .54 to .67). Second, there is a reasonably positive adherence to RAGEE guidelines. Third, there appears to be a high risk of bias among studies which validated risk assessment tools for use with AFV. The findings underscore the need for validated risk assessment tools tailored specifically for use with AFV, particularly for clinicians and professionals working in the family violence field.
