sexual orientation and victimization  

Definición

  • A strong positive correlation exists between sexual orientation and the risk, frequency, and intensity of criminal victimization, especially violent offenses. Social scientists have determined that one's sexual orientation independently increases the odds of victimization through multivariate analysis using logistic regression.
