Studies 2 & 3: Assessing the Psychological Profiles of Sexually Aggressive Male Students at UK Universities Nationally – 'National Study' and Typology Development

This project describes the second and third in a series of empirical research studies conducted by the lead author for his PhD, which explores male sexual aggression at UK universities. Study 2 empirically assesses the prevalence and psychological risk factors associated with the past sexual aggression of male students across UK universities and is a follow-up to "Study 1" (https://osf.io/4ht8m/). Study 3 combines data from Studies 1 and 2 to explore whether there are distinct typologies of sexually aggressive male students in the UK, who can be classified and statistically differentiated by the psychological risk factors associated with their past offending behaviours. 20/09/21 UPDATE: Please note that, in the interest of scientific rigour, Study 3 has since been replaced by "Study 7" (https://osf.io/rj78t/). This new study allows for a more powerful and valid cluster analysis. Please refer to our Study 7 pre-registration for additional information.
