Sexual violence represents a significant social issue, with one in three women reporting sexual victimization. It is essential to acquire a greater understanding of the factors contributing to sexual violence, including rape myth acceptance. Rape myth acceptance refers to a set of erroneous beliefs relating to sexual violence. The Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale (IRMA) and its variations are some of the most widely used measures of rape myth acceptance. However, no French version of the IRMA is currently available. The objective of this study is to carry out a systematic translation and validation of a French version of the IRMA (McMahon & Farmer, 2011). To do so, the IRMA was translated according to the back-translation procedures for cross-cultural research (Brislin, 1970). Francophone individuals (N = 740) between the ages of 16 to 83 (M = 23.54; SD = 8.02) completed an online questionnaire on sexual behaviour and attitudes, which included the translated French version of the IRMA. Results show that the French version of the revised Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale (FR-IRMA) has very good psychometric qualities and could be used for both research and interventions with Francophone populations.
