An Acquaintance Rape Education Program for Students Transitioning to High School
Fay, Karen E.; Medway, Frederic J.
Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, v6 n3 p223-236 Aug 2006
Based on Parrot's work with college students, a six-activity acquaintance rape prevention program for first-year high school students living in a rural South Carolina community was implemented and evaluated. The program decreased students' acceptance of rape myths compared with non-participating students both on a scale developed by Burt and on additional items measuring acquaintance rape. Attitudes toward dating violence did not change. Research limitations are discussed, and practical suggestions for sex education are presented. (Contains 2 tables.)
