Abstract

Victims of a sexual assault often do not report the assault for fear of being blamed for the sexual assault, particularly if they had been drinking. The current study aims to examine a method of decreasing blame of a victim of sexual assault, even when alcohol was involved, using a technique called self-affirmation: an activity that promotes the values, beliefs, and self integrity.

It was hypothesized that 1) Participants would likely place more blame upon the victim when she had been drinking compared to when she has not, 2) self-affirmed participants would place less blame upon the victim of sexual assault compared to non-self-affirmed participants, 3) the combination of self-affirmation and alcohol use together would affect different levels of victim blame, and 4) compared to the control condition, self-affirmed participants would more often download an electronic information pamphlet on sexual assault and alcohol offered via web link at the conclusion of the study. These hypotheses were tested using a 2 (self-affirmation x control) x 2 (alcohol x no alcohol) factorial design.

Two hundred eleven individuals were recruited from social media outlets to participate in an online study. After random assignment, those in the experimental condition self-affirmed by rating 11 traits in order of personal importance and explaining their top choice. Control participants ranked a list of foods and briefly described how to prepare their top choice. Participants then read a sexual assault and a political scandal scenario, each paired with respective questionnaires. Participants were randomly assigned to alcohol absent or alcohol present conditions within the sexual assault scenario. Participants were also offered the chance download a free sexual assault and alcohol pamphlet by entering in their participant number (given at the beginning of the study). Participants were then debriefed.

Results indicated that participants blamed the victim of the assault more when she had been drinking and self-affirmed participants blamed the victim less compared to non-self-affirmed participants. Furthermore, results indicated that self-affirmed participants were more likely to download an informational packet on alcohol and sexual assault compared to non-affirmed participants.

Subsequent analyses revealed two important findings. First, when alcohol was present, self-affirmed participants answered similarly to non-self-affirmed participants in that they believed sex with force should not have occurred. However, when alcohol was absent, non-self-affirmed participants rated their belief that sex should have occurred even if force was used significantly higher compared to self-affirmed participants. Second, females tended to blame the perpetrator similarly in both the self-affirmed and non-self-affirmed conditions. However, self-affirmed males blamed the perpetrator to a greater extent compared to non-self-affirmed males. Implications are far reaching and include self-affirmation’s usefulness for male-targeted sexual assault and reduction programs.

About Affirmation Racer

This is a simple 80s style racing game I made that displays affirmations that you choose on the sides of the tracks so you can subconsciously absorb those affirmations while you race. It makes me feel good to play it because I've edited it to include nice affirmations for myself.

I thought of it when I was playing around with how to make a simple 80s style racing game but I also wanted to make billboards on the side of the road. Before I could get full billboards working I was able to display text along the sides of the tracks (as you will see when you play) and I liked it so much I decided to go with that approach.

Gameplay

Affirmation racer has simple controls. The arrow keys (or WASD) control the car. Up accelerates and left and right turn the car. Down decelerates and goes in reverse.

Your current speed and current track time are displayed on the rear bumper of your car. The best lap time you've ever made for a given track is displayed under the checkered flag at the start of each track where it says 'Time To Beat:'. If it says that the time to beat is 0.000s that just means you have never finished this track before.

The controls are tuned to feel slippery, and the car bounces off the walls so it can be fun just bouncing around and trying to get through the tracks. The fastest scores however will involve timing your bounces and acceleration to keep aimed in the direction you want to proceed and not slow down too much (since each bounce necessarily slows the car down somewhat).

Each level number is randomly generated making for an interesting game every time you advance to a new level. For example: Level 3 is always the same level and no matter how many times you start the game it will always be the same, but level 4 will be different than level 3 and level 5 will be different than level 4 and so on. Your goal is to race through the twists and turns as fast as you can to get the fastest possible time.

There are a theoretically unlimited number of randomly generated levels so you should be able to play for a very long time and since you can always change your affirmations, there is a lot of possible variety.

Affirmation Racer is currently only available for Mac. Apologies to all other platforms.

Progress

Once you have a good time (or any time you are ready to move onto the next level) just drive to the right down the next level ramp and you will be warped to the next level (same concept applies for the previous level ramp to the left).

The game starts you off on the same level you last played. It keeps scores for each level you play.

How to add your own affirmations

I've included some super simple affirmations with the game but they weren't chosen to be particularly effective for anyone in particular and it will be most effective if you add your own. There is a file that contains the affirmations and you just need to edit that file and here's how:

1. Right click on the game
2. Select 'Show Package Contents'
3. from there navigate to Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets
4. Right click on Affirmations.csv in that folder and open it with text edit
5. Add or replace affirmations to your hearts content

Once you are editing the file remember a few things: Hit return at the end of the last line so there is a blank line at the end of the file. Don't use commas in your affirmations. You can make each line pretty much as short or as long as you want and the game will split up the words into appropriately sized chunks to make it all display properly. If its longer than the whole track though it just displays as much as it can until the text hits the finish line.

The game will loop through your affirmations over and over. For example if you are on level 10 and you only have 9 affirmations it will show the first affirmation. Because of this you can replace the entire list of course and add as many or as few as you want (although I don't think zero will really work but I haven't tried it!).

Troubleshooting

To start the game you may need to temporarily override your security settings the the very first time you play it: Right click and choose Open and then it will ask you to login to override those settings for this app.

Conclusion

Enjoy the game and thank you for playing Affirmation Racer!
