Hello Roberta!

I hope you are doing well!  Perhaps you have already read this article, but 
if not, this is one article that I'm aware of that speaks to percentages of 
men committing sexual assault.  

Carr, J. & VanDeusen, K. (2004) Risk Factors for Male Sexual Aggression on 
College Campuses. J. Interpersonal Violence 19(5): 279-289.

        -Surveys have consistently reported that college men acknowledged 
forced 
        intercourse at a rate of 5-15% and college sexual aggression at a 
rate of 15-25%
        (Koss, Gidycz, and Wisniewski, 1987; Malamuth, Sockloskie, Koss, and 
Tanaka, 1991)

        -The national survey of rape conducted by Koss, Gidycz, and 
Wisniewski (1987) 
        revealed that 1 in 12 college men committed acts that met the legal 
definition of
        rape, and of those men, 84% did not consider their actions to be 
illegal.

        -In a large study of college men, 8.8% admitted rape or attempted 
rape (Ouimette
        & Riggs, 1998)

        -Using anonymous surveys, men admit to sexually aggressive acts with 
acquaintances
        or romantic partners (Koss, 1988; Lisak & Roth, 1990; Malamuth et 
al., 1991)

        -Malamuth (1981) validated a rape proclivity measure on various 
samples of college
        Men and found an average of 21-35% of males indicated some likelihood 
of raping if
        They could be assured of not being caught.

        I am aware of other articles that discuss contributing factors to 
male sexual   aggression, male sex role socialization, alcohol abuse and 
rape, personality 
        characteristics of self-reported college rapists, recidivism, etc.  
Let me know if      you have any questions and/or if I can share any other 
information.

Thanks!

Anne

My Associate Director Roberta Gibbons would like to submit the following 
request:

Can someone direct Roberta to one or more articles in peer reviewed 
journals that speak to premeditation and targeting in acquaintance rape 
situations? She is also looking for recent articles in addition to 
Lisak's Undetected Rapist that have findings on the percentage of men 
who commit sexual assault. Please send responses directly to Roberta's 
e-mail:

    thank you
