abstract="This study examines the applicability of theoretically-relevant routine activity variables to understand the risk of sexual victimization among college students. Analyses assess if routine activity-related variables have similar explanatory power for rape and sexual assault. Indicators of &quot;proximity to motivated offenders&quot; and &quot;exposure to crime&quot; were associated with rape. Indicators related to &quot;proximity to motivated offenders,&quot; &quot;exposure to crime,&quot; and &quot;target attractiveness&quot; were associated with sexual assault. Indicators capturing &quot;guardianship&quot; were not associated with either rape or sexual assault. Theoretical implications and directions for future research are discussed. Specifically, it is possible to theory-test using campus climate survey instruments.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
