  • Title: The Psychology of the Politics of Rape: Political Ideology, Moral Foundations, and Attitudes Toward Rape.
    Author: Barnett MD, Hilz EN.
    Journal: Violence Against Women; 2018 Apr; 24(5):545-564. PubMed ID: 29332547.
    Abstract:
    Previous research has found that conservatives and liberals emphasize different moral foundations. The purpose of these two studies was to investigate whether moral foundations mediate the relationship between political ideology and attitudes toward rape among U.S. college students. In Study 1, moral foundations fully mediated the relationship between political ideology and rape myth acceptance. Study 2 generally replicated the results of Study 1, with binding foundations demonstrating the most consistent mediating effects. These results suggest that individual differences in moral decision-making may explain the relationship between political ideology and attitudes toward rape.
