Abstract

ABSTRACT The RAPE Scale is a widely used self-report questionnaire for assessing cognitive distortions related to sexual violence against women. While the French-translated version is used in research and clinical settings, it has never undergone formal validation. This article aims to validate the French version of the RAPE Scale. Study 1 focuses on 142 French-speaking incarcerated male offenders. Study 2 includes 203 participants from a community sample. Results demonstrate good internal consistency and convergent, divergent, and discriminant validity, suggesting the French-translated RAPE Scale is a reliable and valid tool for assessing cognitive distortions among incarcerated offenders and individuals from the community.
