Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sociology
  • Military Science

Background:

  • Military sexual assault remains a significant concern within armed forces.
  • Understanding the environmental and structural factors influencing its prevalence is crucial for effective prevention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the association between military sexual assault and structural characteristics of military bases and surrounding communities.
  • To identify specific base and community factors that predict military sexual assault rates.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized data from the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office (2013-2016) and Department of Defense Base Structure Reports (2012-2013).
  • Incorporated American Community Survey data (2008-2012) for community-level variables.
  • Employed negative binomial regression models to analyze predictors of military sexual assault.

Main Results:

  • Increased military personnel concentration on bases correlated with higher military sexual assault.
  • Navy and Marine bases showed higher prevalence compared to Air Force installations.
  • Community economic disadvantage was inversely associated with military sexual assault, while residential mobility, minority populations, and veteran presence were positively associated.

Conclusions:

  • Military sexual assault is significantly associated with the structural context of military installations and their host communities.
  • Further research into structural predictors is warranted.
  • Prevention strategies may be enhanced through greater community engagement.
