Online Sexual Assault Resistance Program (IDEA3) for University Students
This study is evaluating an online program called IDEA3, which teaches skills to resist sexual assault. It's based on an in-person program that previously helped reduce sexual assault by about 50%. You might be able to join if you are a female-identifying 1st or 2nd-year university student, aged 17-24, at one of four specific universities. The study aims to see if IDEA3 can reduce sexual violence experienced by undergraduate women. Participants will either attend four 3-hour sessions of the IDEA3 program or a one-hour consent workshop, both with a partner, and complete surveys. Researchers will compare how many participants in each group experience sexual assault over the following year. The current recruitment status is unclear.

What this trial measures
- Completed rapeBaseline, 1-week post-intervention, 6-months and 12-months after randomization
The Sexual Experiences Survey Short Form Victimization (SES-SFV) will be used to measure the primary sexual assault outcomes. Completed rape will have occurred when a participant indicates she has had at least one experience of threatened, forced, or drugged completed (not attempted) sexual activity (oral, anal, or vaginal intercourse - answered 'once' or more to any of 9 questions (2c, 2d, 2e, 3c, 3d, 3e, 4c, 4d, or 4e) in the period between the baseline measurement and the 12-month survey measurement.
