“…Our findings support campus sexual assault studies from other countries, which have highlighted key psychological differences between males who have and have not engaged in recent sexual aggression in terms of specific attitudinal, personality, and experiential riskrelated factors (e.g., Abbey et al, 2001;Čvek & Junaković, 2020;D'Abreu & Krahé, 2014;Thompson et al, 2013). Given arguments that male sexual aggression is driven by hypermasculinity and adversarial sexual beliefs (see Abbey & McAuslan, 2004;Chan, 2021;Čvek & Junaković, 2020;Martín et al, 2005), it is unsurprising that high levels of hostility toward women, rape myth acceptance, and atypical sexual fantasies predicted past engagement in the behavior in our sample. To this end, our findings support the confluence model (Malamuth et al, 2021), which proposes that hostile masculinity-a pronounced obedience to traditional gender role beliefs for men-forms one of two key pathways to sexual aggression.…”
