Abstract
Researchers compared assault narratives of survivors who reported to the police to survivors who did not report to the police. We hypothesized that ‘friend’, ‘family’, and ‘risk’ words would occur more frequently in non-reports. Analyses revealed that ‘friend’ words occurred significantly more often in non-reports, t(X) = X.XX, p>.03.
