Exploring the Network Structure of Help‐Seeking Resources Among Latinx Victims of Hate‐ and Bias‐Motivated Violence
Rates of hate crime and bias victimisation against Latinx individuals are increasing in the United States. It is imperative to understand how Latinx individuals seek help following such incidents. Using data from the Understanding and Measuring Bias Victimization against Latinos study, this paper examines the network structure of help‐seeking resources among Latinx victims of hate crime and bias victimisation. We constructed a network of formal a…

Multiple dimensions of acculturation and the longitudinalvictimization of Latine adolescents
Aspects of acculturation alter the risk of subsequent victimization in multiple ways, sometimes in ways counter to cross-sectional effects. Victimization also impacts dimensions of acculturation such as familial support and cultural orientations. These findings point to the need for prevention and intervention efforts that strengthen families and acknowledge the role of cultural adaptation in victimization risk. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025…
Examining the Role of Cultural Variables in the Victimization–Delinquency Overlap Among Latino Youth from a General Strain Theory Perspective
Given the rapid growth of the Latino population in the United States, criminological research has begun to explore the ways in which pathways to crime may depend on different social statuses such as race and ethnicity. Incorporating cultural factors into the study of general strain theory (GST) among Latino youth can help elucidate which cultural factors protect these adolescents from engaging in criminal activity and provide recommendations for …
Unveiling the Nexus
Objective Hate crimes aim to send a message of exclusion: that someone does not belong in the civic polity because of some dimension of the victim's identity. Surprisingly, little work has directly investigated whether hate crimes—and bias‐motivated victimizations more broadly—have the intended effect: discouraging the political engagement of victims. One barrier to answering this question is that marginalized populations most likely to experienc…
Evaluating the potential of iron-based interventions in methane reduction and climate mitigation
Keeping global surface temperatures below international climate targets will require substantial measures to control atmospheric CO 2 and CH 4 concentrations. Recent studies have focused on interventions to decrease CH 4 through enhanced atmospheric oxidation. Here for the first time using a set of models, we evaluate the effect of adding iron aerosols to the atmosphere to enhance molecular chlorine production, and thus enhance the atmospheric ox…
The longitudinal relationship between social support and victimization among latino teens
PURPOSE: This study examines the relationship between social support and victimization of Latino youth over time, utilizing the stress prevention and support deterioration models. METHODS: To address the research questions we utilized data from Waves 1 and 2 (n = 574) of the Dating Violence among Latino Adolescents (DAVILA) study, a national bilingual phone survey of self-identified Latino youth and their caregiver. Cross-lagged panel modeling wa…
Examining Avoidance, Victimization Risk, and Perceptions of Community Safety in Latinx Communities
Latinx adults are increasingly avoiding formal authorities, local services, and community engagement out of fear of victimization and deportation. Increased distrust and fear of authorities threaten to erode individual and community feelings of safety. While crime prevention scholarship identifies community efficacy, local engagement, and bonds to formal institutions as critical components to creating safety within local communities, there is lit…
Hate Crimes and Race-Based Trauma on Latinx Populations
Traditionally, the literature has sought to understand the impact of racial minority status and trauma as it relates to interpersonal violence, domestic violence, and sexual assault. What has not been as extensively reviewed and summarized is how racially or ethnically motivated hate crimes impact the mental health of minorities—particularly Latinx/Hispanic groups. This review aims to summarize the current body of literature on the intersection o…
An introductory examination on the differences between frequentist and Bayesian multiple regression using real-world data on bias-based victimization among Latinx adults
Several meaningful differences between the approaches emerge resulting in different interpretations of these results. Bayesian analyses serve as an additional tool for researchers that can be used to answer new and unique research questions that may be inaccessible by frequentist methods.

The role of the victim–offender relationship on psychologicaldistress among Latinx women
The study findings support the betrayal trauma theory among Latinx women by showing that the closeness in relationship between the victim and the perpetrator for childhood victimization was associated with greater psychological distress above and beyond the impact of other perpetrator-victim relationships. This effect remained significant even when accounting for the total lifetime victimization. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights…
Does Setting Matter? An Exploratory Examination of Victimization Risk Reduction Strategies Among Female College Students Studying Abroad
This exploratory project assessed whether female college students studying abroad engage in more risk reduction strategies (RRSs) when abroad than in their community of origin and whether changes in students' use of RRSs while abroad are related to a variety of factors (e.g., fear of victimization, year of study). Results revealed that students engaged in significantly more RRSs while abroad and that students studying in Africa were more likely t…
Multiple dimensions of acculturation and the victimization of Latinoadolescents
Anglo orientation, Latino orientation, familial support, and immigrant status showed protective qualities, but the trends were specific to victimization type, and interactions surfaced. The findings point to the need for prevention and intervention efforts that strengthen families and embrace both Latino and Anglo cultures for Latino teens, fostering biculturalism.

The likelihood of Latino women to seek help in response to interpersonal victimization
Help-seeking is a process that is influenced by individual, interpersonal, and sociocultural factors. The current study examined these influences on the likelihood of seeking help (police, pressing charges, medical services, social services, and informal help) for interpersonal violence among a national sample of Latino women. Women living in high-density Latino neighborhoods in the USA were interviewed by phone in their preferred language. Women…
The influence of ethnic group variation on victimization and help seeking among Latino women
Interpersonal violence research on Latinos has largely ignored the ethnic group variations that are included under the pan-ethnic term Latino. The current study adds to the literature by utilizing a national sample of Latino women to examine the interpersonal victimization experiences and help-seeking responses to victimization by ethnic group. The sample was drawn from the Sexual Assault Among Latinas Study (SALAS; Cuevas & Sabina, 2010) that su…
Intimate Partner Violence among Latino Women
The effect of immigration and acculturation on victimization among a national sample of Latino women
The current study examined the effect of immigrant status, acculturation, and the interaction of acculturation and immigrant status on self-reported victimization in the United States among Latino women, including physical assault, sexual assault, stalking, and threatened violence. In addition, immigrant status, acculturation, gender role ideology, and religious intensity were examined as predictors of the count of victimization among the victimi…
Interpersonal Victimization Among a National Sample of Latino Women
This article presents results from the Sexual Assault Among Latinas (SALAS) study, which obtained lifetime prevalence rates of interpersonal violence from a national sample of adult Latino women. Results show that more than half of the women in the study (53.6%) reported at least one victimization experience during their lifetime, with approximately two thirds of the victimized women (66.2%) experiencing more than one victimization incident, poin…
The Cultural Influences on Help‐seeking Among a National Sample of Victimized Latino Women
The current study examined the influence of legal status and cultural variables (i.e., acculturation, gender role ideology and religious coping) on the formal and informal help‐seeking efforts of Latino women who experienced interpersonal victimization. The sample was drawn from the Sexual Assault Among Latinas (SALAS) Study that surveyed 2,000 self‐identified adult Latino women. The random digit dial methodology employed in high‐density Latino n…
Interpersonal victimization patterns and psychopathology among Latino women
Research on the victimization of Latino women and the subsequent psychological impact has been limited by focusing on individual forms of victimization, primarily partner violence or sexual assault. Another deficiency includes mainly using convenience and/or geographically restricted samples, which impacts the generalizability of the results. To overcome these research limitations, the Sexual Assault Among Latinas (SALAS) study aimed to evaluate …
Utility of the HIV dementia scale in assessing risk for significant HIV-related cognitive-motor deficits in a high-risk urban adult sample
Considerable literature reflects the range of HIV-related neurocognitive complications, including relatively poor performance on tests of: movement and coordination; attention and concentration; reaction time; and mental flexibility. Efforts to develop appropriate screening techniques include the HIV Dementia Scale (HDS), a brief measure that has demonstrated promise but is lacking extensive independent evaluation. The present study examines the …
