abstract="OBJECTIVE: To compare university students' perceptions of date rape with current legal definitions. METHODS: A convenient sample of 474 students each read one of eight dating scenarios that manipulated levels of coercion and verbal consent. RESULTS: High attribution of rape when &quot;no&quot; was verbalized, with coercion not being a faction in this condition. Students were less able to discriminate between the remaining scenarios with gender accounting for some of the discrepancies. CONCLUSION: The absence of a verbalzed &quot;no,&quot; university students' perceptions of rape are not consistent with current legal definitions.
