(Anne G. Sadler, Brenda M. Booth, Brian L. Cook and Bradley N. Doebbeling - American Journal of Industrial Medicine , 2003)

Health hazards specific to women workers have not been adequately documented. This study assessed military environmental factors associated with rape occurring during military service, while controlling for pre-military trauma experiences. The goal of this exploratory study was to describe characteristics of rape victims and perpetrators and to attempt to identify workplace environmental factors associated with rape occurring during military service.
