Here's a good article talking about the discrepancies in sexual assault studies. Of course I think the ad is silly, but it had good intentions and tried to educate an at risk population. I'm glad you know what they are, though, because I'm sure the researchers who have been studying these trends for years would love to have some of your accurate data.

It doesn't matter who the researchers are or how much they've been researching. If they do the research incorrectly the entire thing is pointless. The [b]C.D.C.[/b] did a sexual assault study and that's where the 1 in 4 stat came from. The criminal justice apartment criticized them for it. The study you linked me to user similar methods as the C.D.C., but it doesn't completely say what were they requirements for something to count as a sexual assault. It could still too broad, just like the C.D.C's. The article it's self says that the study shows off highs amount of sexual assault but instead helps college students get attention from their college. Fun fact# men and women go though about the paramount of unwanted sexual encounters.
