The Relationship between Rape Myths and Sexual Scripts: The Social Construction of Rape (2011, background): “And, it may not prevent the psychological ramifications of rape victimization (e.g., Koss et al. 1988; McMullin and White 2006).”
A Match-and-Motivation Model of How Women Label Their Nonconsensual Sexual Experiences (2011, background): “Studies have found no differences between labelers and nonlabelers in psychological well-being or alcohol use in an initial assessment or at a 9-month follow-up assessment (McMullin & White, 2006) and in self-blame (Kahn & Mathie, 2000).”
Telling stories without the words: ‘Tightrope talk’ in women’s accounts of coming to live well after rape or depression (2011, background): “…half of women surveyed who report having experienced events that meet the legal definition of rape/sexual assault, do not label it as such (Bondurant, 2001; Gavey, 2005; Koss, 1985; McMullin and White, 2006; Pitts and Schwartz, 1993), and thus have been referred to as ‘unacknowledged rape victims’.”
Sexual Assault Victims' Acknowledgment Status and Revictimization Risk (2009, background): “In addition, McMullin and White (2006) found that, among college women, unacknowledged victims reported more current alcohol use than nonvictims, whereas acknowledged victims reported similar levels of alcohol use to nonvictims.”
Revising the SES: A Collaborative Process to Improve Assessment of Sexual Aggression and Victimization (2007, background): “…questions are personal, sexual assault is uniquely intimate and disclosure of victimization is inhibited by stigma, widespread beliefs that it is shameful, and cultural norms that victims are wholly or partially responsible for rape (Frazier, 2003; Koss & Figueredo, 2004; McMullin & White, 2006).”
Risky Situation or Harmless Fun? A Qualitative Examination of College Women’s Bad Hook-up and Rape Scripts (2009, background): “college women report that their assailant was a stranger, and less than 10% report that the assailant used violent force (hitting, choking, slapping, using a weapon; e.g., Littleton and Radecki Breitkopf 2006; Littleton et al. 2009; McMullin and White 2006 ).”
Stigma-Threat Motivated Nondisclosure of Sexual Assault and Sexual Revictimization (2011, unknown): “…publically disclose or personally acknowledge their experiences as sexual assaults (Fisher et al., 2000; Kahn, Andreoli Mathie, & Torgler, 1994; Koss, 1985; Koss et al., 1987; Littleton, Axsom, & Grills-Taquechel, 2009; McMullin & White, 2006; Sable, Danis, Mauzy, & Gallagher, 2006; Ullman, 1996).”
