Abstract

OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the following systematic review was to determine the efficacy of bystander sexual violence, school-based educational interventions, aimed at first-year college students to reduce the occurrence of sexual violence on college campuses.
Methods
A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, CENTRAL, ERIC, and CINAHL Plus and Boolean search logic to extract articles from the databases. Only peer-reviewed journal articles published from 2010 to 2017 were considered. After applying inclusion criteria based on the study purpose, only seven articles remained in the review.
Results
Bystander intervention education is effective in increasing student's bystander confidence; however, these results were mixed. Studies in this review employed different educational programs and durations, and instrumentation to assess bystander behavior and confidence.
Conclusion
Bystander intervention education is effective in increasing bystander confidence among college students; however, confidence gained during bystander intervention education needs to be assessed.
