RT Article T1 Medial students' attitudes about female rape victims JF Journal of interpersonal violence VO 7 IS 2 SP 175 OP 188 A1 Best, Connie L. 1951- A2 Dansky, Bonnie S.

First-and third-year medical students read narratives of three types of patients-a stereotypical rape victim, a victim of a robbery, and a nonstereotypical rape victim-and responded to an attitude questionnaire in reference to the victims in the narratives. The results of a series of ANOVAs showed that females had more favorable attitudes toward victims than males did and that medical students had more victim-blaming attitudes about a nonstereotypical rape victim than about either a stereotypical rape victim or a nonsexual assault victim. The implications of these findings are discussed with respect to service delivery for rape victims and medical school curricula K1 Vergewaltigung K1 Geschlechtsrolle K1 Einstellungen
