37 per cent of young men partially blame a victim for being raped, if they were under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
That's according to the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre's annual research.
The new report looked at public attitudes towards experiences of rape and sexual violence.
It found almost one in three adults have experienced sexual violence, however nearly 80 per cent fear no one will believe them.
CEO of the DRCC Rachel Morrogh says one reason for this is due to people's attitudes towards those who've experience sexual violence or rape:
The report also identified nearly one in five people believe there are a lot of false rape allegations.
Only 17 per cent of rape victims reported it to the Gardaí, while 22 per cent sought medical treatment.
Larry Ryan, Director of IPSOS B and A says their research highlights how barriers prevent victims from reporting it.
The findings reveal the need for sustained prevention and education that challenges victim-blaming and misconceptions about sexual violence.
