Abstract

Recent evidence has suggested that sexual assault trends are relatively stable and flat. However, whether or not this trend is still observed once the data is disaggregated by race/ethnic subgroups has been largely underexplored. As such, the current study provides a deive analysis of sexual assault incident data from a large metropolitan city in a large Southwestern state in the United States from 2007-2017. Results indicate that race/ethnicitydisaggregated trends in the number of sexual assault incidents appear to be increasing in recent years, and this increase is more pronounced for sexual assault incidents with White and African American victims. Additional analyses revealed some interesting victim and incident characteristics associated with these race/ethnicity-disaggregated incidents as well. Study limitations and directions for future research are also discussed.
