abstract="Relationships between rape myths, revictimization, and postassault well-being were examined in a sample of adult victims of sexual assault (n = 88). Correlation, multiple regression, and path analyses investigated whether conformity to stereotypes of &quot;real rape&quot; or &quot;real victim&quot; was associated with revictimization and well-being. A possible mediating effect of revictimization on the relationship between rape myth conformity and well-being was assessed. The relationship between specific revictimization behaviors and emotions was also analyzed. Questioning victims' resistance to the assault was correlated with revictimization emotions. &quot;Real victim&quot; characteristics were associated with well-being, but no mediating effect of revictimization was observed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
