Title: The use of alcohol mixed with energy drinks and experiences of sexual victimization among male and female college students. Author: Snipes DJ, Green BA, Javier SJ, Perrin PB, Benotsch EG. Journal: Addict Behav; 2014 Jan; 39(1):259-64. PubMed ID: 24157423. Abstract: Much research has documented negative associations with the consumption of alcohol mixed with energy drinks (AmED). To date, few research studies have examined the relation between AmED and sexual victimization. Furthermore, research on sexual victimization among men is less studied. The present study employed a sample of 253 men and 545 women to examine the differential associations between AmED consumption and sexual victimization as a function of gender. Results from this study suggest that AmED consumption is robustly associated with being sexually victimized among men, but not women. These results were robust while controlling for demographic factors and other substance use. Results add to the literature on sexual victimization by potentially identifying a new high-risk drinking behavior among males who have been sexually victimized.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
