Prevalence Rate Estimates of Four Types of CSA in College and National Populations

Sample/Gender	k	N	Exhibitionism	Fondling	Oral Sex	Intercourse^a
College
female	13	2172	32%	39%	3%	13%
male	9	506	22%	51%	14%	33%
combined^b	26	2918	28%	42%	6%	17%
National^c
female	3	590	38%	67%	9%	16%
male	3	366	25%	69%	22%	13%
combined	6	956	33%	68%	14%	15%

Note. k is the number of samples and N is the number of SA respondents in these samples that prevalence rate estimates of types of CSA are based on. Prevalence rate estimates are weighted means of prevalences from individual samples. College estimates come from studies included in the current review; national estimates come from 3 studies of national samples (Baker & Duncan, 1985; Laumann et al., 1994; Lopéz et al., 1995).

In some college and national studies, intercourse included both attempted and completed acts.
Combined values were based on two additional studies (with a male and female sample in each) that reported only combined results.
For exhibitionism, only data from Lopéz et al. were reported (female: k = 1, N = 203; male: k = 1, N = 134; combined: k = 2, N = 337); for oral sex, only data from Laumann et al. and Lopéz et al. were reported (female: k = 2, N = 476; male: k = 2, N = 291; combined: k = 4, N = 767).
