DoD Principles of Prevention ExamQuestions with Correct Answers
Recall the background for the DoD harassment prevention efforts - Answer-Level of
Learning (R)
Why the GAO conducted this study - Answer-a range of interconnected, inappropriate
behaviors that are connected to the occurrence of sexual assault and that support an
environment that tolerates these behaviors.1) Recent studies suggest unwanted sexual
behaviors are part of a "continuum of harm," which the DoD defines as a range of
interconnected, inappropriate behaviors that are connected to the occurrence of sexual
assault and that support an environment that tolerates these behaviors.
2) Senate Report 114-255 included a provision for GAO to review efforts by the DoD to
prevent unwanted sexual behaviors in the military. The study included:1) Recent studies
suggest unwanted sexual behaviors are part of a "continuum of harm," which the DoD
defines as a range of interconnected, inappropriate behaviors that are connected to the
occurrence of sexual assault and that support an environment that tolerates these
behaviors.
2) Senate Report 114-255 included a provision for GAO to review efforts by the DoD to
prevent unwanted sexual behaviors in the military. The study included:
Government Accountability Office Study (GAO-18-33) - Answer-Government
accountability office study
Senate Report 114-255 included a provision for GAO to review efforts by DoD to
prevent unwanted sexual behaviors in the military. Study included: - Answer-a) Policies
on sexual harassment
b) Processes for maintaining and reporting consistent data on incidents of unwanted
sexual behaviors, and
c) Overarching efforts, including a prevention strategy, to address unwanted sexual
behaviors across the continuum of harm.
What did the GAO find? - Answer-1) The DoD's policies on sexual harassment include
some but not all of the Centers for Disease Control's (CDC) principles.
2) The DoD and the Services do not address risk and protective factors.
3) The DoD and the Services did not have a method for anonymous reporting for
harassment.
4) The DoD had not established standard data elements and definitions to guide the
Services in maintaining and reporting data on sexual harassment.
5) The DoD's strategy may not contain key elements for long-term and results-oriented
strategic planning such as long-term goals, strategies to achieve goals, and metrics to
gauge progress.
, What did GAO recommend - Answer-1) The GAO recommends that the DoD fully
include in its new policy on sexual harassment the CDC's principles for sexual violence
prevention and mechanisms for anonymous reporting,
2) Develop standard data elements and definitions for reporting sexual harassment
incidents, and
3) Incorporate in its overarching prevention strategy elements key for a long-term,
results-oriented strategy.
How did the DoD respond? - Answer-1) Implementation of DoD Instruction 1020.03,
Harassment Prevention and Response in the Armed Forces, 8 Feb 2018 (Department
of Defense, 2018)
2) Adoption of CDC Principles into the DoD PoP
3) Adoption of prevention strategy for all types of harassment
Response from the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness - Answer-
1) SAPRO's Prevention Plan of Action (PPoA) provided a framework for the prevention
of sexual violence. However, such a preventative framework can be applied across
other problematic behaviors, such as harassment.
2) DEOMI's Harassment Prevention Strategy is still under review
Continuum of Harm - Answer-a. It represents the environment and potential for harm
where people live, work, and spend their lives.
b. The left side of the continuum is a healthy environment.
c. As one moves to the right, behaviors and misconduct that detract from a healthy
environment increase in severity, and range from such problems as sexism,
objectification, and sexual harassment to inappropriate touching and sexual violence.
Center for Disease Control (CDC) Principles - Answer-a. The basis for the prevention
framework of problematic behaviors stems from the CDC Public Health Approach and
Social-Ecological Model.
b. These multi-disciplinary models have been informed through the fields of medicine,
epidemiology, sociology, psychology, criminology, education, and economics.
c. Both models have been applied to the prevention of violence (e.g., child abuse and
neglect, youth violence, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, elder abuse, and
suicidal behavior).
d. With parallels in root causes and manifested behaviors, both the Public Health
Approach and the Social-Ecological Model can have utility in understanding, responding
to, and preventing harassment.
PoP Model Domains - Answer-The DoD PoP consists of a four-step problem-solving
approach that examines both risk and protective factors across multiple domains in
order to develop multidimensional prevention strategies
There are four domains within the DoD's PoP Model, which are based on the CDC's
Social-Ecological Model. These domains were developed to further the understanding
