dc.description.abstractGlobally, one-third of women had experienced either sexual intimate partner or non-partner sexual violence. In sub-Saharan Africa, lifetime sexual violence was found to have an occurrence frequency of 4.3 % to 76.4 % and Ethiopia accounted for the highest prevalence. According to the most recent vital health indicator (EDHS 2016) of Ethiopia 26 % of women within the ages of 15-49 had already experienced either physical violence, sexual violence or both. The likelihood of experiencing sexual violence could be influenced by different factors, such as socio-cultural and behavioral attributes at the individual, relationship, family and community, and society level. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence, coping response to sexual violence and the correlation of different variables with regards to the occurrence of sexual violence among unity private college female students at Dessie town Ethiopia. A cross-sectional study design was used. Individual, social, community, and relationship level factors were assessed. A chi-square test was used to ascertain the differences in percentage distribution of different variables and sexual violence. Binary logistic regression used to assess the association between the factors and sexual violence among female students. The result of this study showed that the lifetime prevalence of forced sex, attempted to forced sex and sexual harassment, were 4.8%, and 9.2% and 43.6% respectively. Lack of disclosure and abstinence from the perpetrator were the most frequent coping response used by the victims against sexual violence. In each separate multivariate logistic regression analyses chewing khat, prior living place, witnessing maternal domestic violence, parents living status and discussion with parents were significantly associated with forced sex and sexual harassment. Among the relationship factors, the number of sexual partners and the drunker friend were correlated with forced sex. .By controlling all the confounding factors, the major predictor factor for forced sex attempted to forced sex and sexual harassment can be determined. Given the availability of significant data, conclusions drawn from the finding will either support the hypothesis that sexual violence is still a significant problem among female students or disprove it; and stipulate the relevant predictor factors.hu_HU
