Knowledge, Perception and Experience of Non-consensual Sex among Undergraduate Students of the University of Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Non-consensual sex is prevalent across the world and a major public health concern. There is however dearth of information on non-consensual sexual experiences among University undergraduates in River State. This study therefore was designed to document experience of non-consensual sex and its knowledge among undergraduates of the University of Port-Harcourt, Rivers State Nigeria. Three hundred students were purposively selected for the study. A pretested self administered questionnaire was used to collect data on knowledge, perception and experience of non-consensual sex. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and chi-square statistics at 95% significant level. Mean age of respondents was 21.3±2.8years and 97.8% were single. More than half (57.4%) live with their parents. Few had their first sexual intercourse at the age range of 5-9 years. Less than a quarter (16.3%) of the respondents knew that their fathers had ever beaten their mothers. More than a quarter (32.9%) of the respondents were of the view that it is not proper for a man to report if he is forced to have sex by his girl friend, 23.1% were of the view that non-consensual sex is part of relationship so it should be tolerated. Overall majority had good knowledge of non-consensual sex with a mean knowledge score of 2.7±1.7. More female (58.6%) than male (41.4%) had positive perception about non-consensual sex. Twenty-two percent of the respondents agreed that their first sexual experience was non-consensual with 9.0% having their first experience with boyfriend/girlfriend. Knowledge of non-consensual sex was fair and more than half had experienced non-consensual. Health talks during orientation week for both old and new students of the university community should emphasis issues

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
