TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - What would you do? Strategies for bystander intervention to prevent sexual violence by college students JO - Journal of college and character A1 - McMahon, Sarah A1 - Hoffman, Melanie Lowe A1 - McMahon, Sheila M.

Given the paramount importance of peers among college students, what types of pro-social bystander interventions do students themselves deem feasible in the campus context? Drawing on self-reports from first-year undergraduate students who participated in a bystander education program, this analysis summarizes a range of student responses. Because peers form the support base for these interventions, their influence must be accounted for in the development of bystander education interventions on campuses.
