This chapter reviews 59 research studies (representing 60 different samples) on multiple victimization—defined as experiencing two or more different types of victimization experiences, including one or more personal victimizations and one or more property victimizations. Definitions, descriptions, and operationalizations of multiple victimization were reviewed across studies, along with samples, methods, and prevalence rates. While nuances existed, this research broadly defined, operationalized, and/or referred to multiple victimization as experiencing more than one victimization. Various types of victimization were examined, but a substantial proportion of this literature explored sexual victimization, assessing these experiences among general population, school-based, and high-risk samples. Prevalence rates ranged widely, depending on the sample used, victimization type(s) explored, and the measurement of recurrent victimization.

摘要

This chapter reviews 59 research studies (representing 60 different samples) on multiple victimization—defined as experiencing two or more different types of victimization experiences, including one or more personal victimizations and one or more property victimizations. Definitions, descriptions, and operationalizations of multiple victimization were reviewed across studies, along with samples, methods, and prevalence rates. While nuances existed, this research broadly defined, operationalized, and/or referred to multiple victimization as experiencing more than one victimization. Various types of victimization were examined, but a substantial proportion of this literature explored sexual victimization, assessing these experiences among general population, school-based, and high-risk samples. Prevalence rates ranged widely, depending on the sample used, victimization type(s) explored, and the measurement of recurrent victimization.
