Journal Contribution - Journal Article
Abstract:In this factorial survey experiment, the acceptance of male and female rape myths are measured among police-inspectors-in-training. We examined whether exposure to a rape scenario had a significant effect on the level of rape myth acceptance. The results of this study showed that the acceptance of male victims needs to be improved within the police. In addition, exposure to male rape myths and a male rape scenario had a significant impact on the attitudes of the respondents. This article discusses the implications for practice and specific suggestions are made for police trainings.
