Physical or sexual victimization includes unduplicated counts of inmates who reported either sexual victimization or physical victimization during the 6-month period. Physical and sexual victimization includes unduplicated counts of inmates reporting both physical and sexual victimization during the 6-month period. Together, they equal the number of unduplicated counts of inmates reporting victimization, either physical or sexual. Consequently, percentages for the specific forms of victimization (physical, sexual) add to the percentages of conjoint forms of victimization (physical or sexual and physical and sexual). Deviations are due to rounding error.
Statistically significant difference between males and females (p < .05).
