Abstract

Sexual violence is a serious problem with significant impacts on victims' physical and mental health. This study aims to analyze factors associated with sexual violence cases among patients at Balaraja Regional Hospital, focusing on age factors and victim-perpetrator relationships. This research employed a cross-sectional design with a retrospective approach. Data were obtained from medical records of violence cases at Balaraja Regional Hospital from 2022 to 2024. A sample of 27 cases was selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate methods with Chi-square or Fisher's Exact Test at a significance level of p<0.05. Out of 27 cases studied, 18 cases (66.7%) were sexual violence. Most victims were under 18 years old (55.6%) and had social relationships with the perpetrators (70.4%). There was a significant relationship between age factors and sexual violence incidents (p=0.014, OR=9.10) and between victim-perpetrator relationships and sexual violence cases (p=0.025). Children and adolescents under 18 years old have a higher risk of experiencing sexual violence, and such violence is more frequently perpetrated by individuals who have social relationships with the victims.
