  • Whatley, Mark A. (1996): Victim characteristics influencing attributions of responsibility to rape victims. A meta-analysis. In: Aggression and Violent Behavior 1 (2), S. 81-95. DOI: 10.1016/1359-1789(95)00011-9

    Abstract: Past research investigating victim blame has shown that there is a tendency for people to hold female victims of rape partly responsible for the attack. The vast majority of the studies have involved college undergraduates reading fictitious vignettes and then rating the victim's responsibility. The purpose of the present study was to use meta-analysis to determine the degree of responsibility third party observers assign to a female rape victim, and to determine which additional variables moderate the tendency to blame the victim. Specifically, the victim's clothing revealingness, character; physical am-activeness, and acquaintance with her attacker were analyzed Results showed that the victim's clothing revealingness and character significantly affect the tendency to blame the victim Implications for future research investigating victim blame and theories of victim blame are discussed.
