• 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).”
• An Ecological Model of the Impact of Sexual Assault On Women's Mental Health (2009, background): “Such apprehension may be warranted, as negative social reactions from informal supports have consistently been found to be associated with increased self-blame (Ahrens, 2006; Littleton & Breitkopf, 2006; i.e., a micro-system effect).”
• Sexual Violence Is #NotOkay: Social Reactions to Disclosures of Sexual Victimization on Twitter (2019, background): “…aid are commonly framed as “positive social reactions” (see Ullman, 2010, for a review), and are associated with enhanced self-worth and lower levels of psychological distress (Littleton & Radecki-Breitkopf, 2006; Orchowski & Gidycz, 2015; Orchowski et al., 2013).”
• Reacting to rape: Exploring mock jurors' assessments of complainant credibility. (2008, background): “Personality and individual coping strategies are commonly said to account for these differing reactions, as well as the complex, often confl icting emotions victims typically experience in the aftermath of an assault ( Frazier and Burnett 1994 ; Littleton and Radecki Breitkopf 2006 ).”
• Self-Blame Among Sexual Assault Victims Prospectively Predicts Revictimization: A Perceived Sociolegal Context Model of Risk (2007, background): “Several studies have found that self-blame mediates psychological adjustment following SA (Arata, 1999; Branscombe et al., 2003; Frazier, 1991; Littleton & Radecki Breitkopf, 2006), and retrospective studies have suggested that self-blame increases SRV risk (Arata, 2000; cf. Gidycz et al., 2001).”
