Rape
How would you define “rape”? Write a brief definition. Based on this conceptualization, what circumstances constitute rape? Describe a method of measurement that would be valid for a study of rape (as you define it). Now identify a variable related to the concept of rape (e.g. female assault victims as per police data, etc.). Next, create an indicator (e.g. operationalize) that variable to provide you with a single question that accurately represents that variable.
