Date rape policies based on bad information, new study claims
Lisak’s 2002 research concluded that serial offenders commit about 9 of 10 college rapes. Lisak based his findings on a nontypical college sample that had little to do with campus assault, and despite that, has been used as a basis for the creation of “rape adjudication policies that are biased against accused students.”..A new study challenges the widely accepted theory that most date rapes on campus are committed by serial rapists.
