| Notes: | A legal definition of rape that exonerates an accused who 'reasonably believes in consent' is currently in force in a number of jurisdictions in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. Limited research has investigated community and professional perceptions of the adequacy and scope of this definition of rape. This study analyses key themes from focus group discussions with professionals working in the sexual assault sector. |
