Walking a tightrope? Independent sexual violence advisors and their relationship with the police
International research consistently confirms that collaboration between the police and independent sexual violence advisors (ISVAs)/advocates can facilitate much-needed improvements to criminal justice responses and outcomes for victim-survivors in the aftermath of sexual violence. The relationship between ISVAs and the criminal justice system, however, is contentious and evolving. Drawing upon qualitative data from police and ISVA interviews and…
Health care resource use and costs associated with adult pneumococcal disease in the United States from 2017 to 2019, stratified by age and health risk: A retrospective cohort study
Background Adult pneumococcal disease (PD) represents a significant clinical and economic burden in the United States. Individuals with immunocompromising conditions and other chronic medical conditions, as well as those ≥65 years of age, have an increased risk of acute PD and its long-term complications. The aim of the current study was to describe the health care resource use and direct health care costs associated with invasive PD (IPD) and no…
Re-imagining Procedural Justice in Policing Sexual Violence: Centring Survivors
Procedural justice is recognized as being of substantial value to policing and, increasingly, victim-survivors. However, little research has engaged with the meaning of procedural justice theory in sexual violence, and none have developed an understanding with and for survivors. We conducted consultations with 42 survivors via five diverse expert-by-experience panels in England. We propose the following new conceptualizations of the key principle…
The systemic procedural injustice faced by victim-survivors in police responses to rape and ‘serious’ sexual offences: A comprehensive study of four forces in England and Wales
Drawing on a large multi-method study in England and Wales, this paper outlines key challenges to procedural justice faced by victim-survivors in contemporary police responses to rape and ‘serious’ sexual offences. It draws on an innovative dataset – involving ‘real-time’ police ethnographic observations and review of police video footage, combined with supporting stakeholder focus groups and interviews – to provide a multifaceted, holistic exami…
Centring sexual violence victims: What role for rape victim impact assessments
In the light of the ongoing failures of the criminal justice system to tackle sexual violence, in particular the systematic injustices experienced by victims, we suggest the introduction of ‘Rape Victim Impact Assessments’ to centre victims’ rights and interests in the policy development and strategic governance of criminal justice systems. Impact assessments provide a framework for the systematic and evidence-based consideration of a new or chan…
The ‘officer effect’ in risk assessment for domestic abuse: Findings from a mixed methods study in England and Wales
Research on risk assessment for domestic abuse has focused primarily on the predictive validity of specific tools; less attention has been paid to implementation of risk tools by practitioners. This paper presents findings from a mixed methods study in England and Wales. Multi-level modelling reveals an ‘officer effect’ whereby victims’ responses to the Domestic Abuse, Stalking and Harassment and Honour-Based Violence (DASH) risk assessment are i…
Invalidation and mental health among nonbinary individuals
This study examines the experience of a unique minority stressor, gender identity invalidation (henceforth referred to as invalidation), which is defined as the refusal to accept someone's gender identity as real or valid, among transgender and nonbinary (TNB) individuals. Data are drawn from a large and diverse sample of TNB adults who participated in a quantitative survey concerning transgender identity, minority stress, and mental health ( N =…
Teaching for social change: Introducing ‘scrapbooking’ as a pedagogic approach towards ending gender-based violence
This article introduces and evaluates ‘scrapbooking’ as a critical pedagogic approach to gender-based violence (GBV). This approach is inspired by the rapid development of conceptual and methodological tools for researching violence and abuse and the need for their translation into transformative teaching. Drawing on a feminist methodology of ‘research conversations’, but original in its development of ‘pedagogic conversations’, this research adv…
Image-Based Sexual Abuse as a Means of Coercive Control: Victim-Survivor Experiences
Scholars and practitioners increasingly acknowledge the ways that abusive partners create, distribute, or threaten to distribute intimate images without consent, yet little empirical research has comprehensively explored image-based sexual abuse within intimate partner contexts. This article responds to this gap and reports on the findings of a study involving interviews with 29 women and one gender-diverse person who experienced image-based sexu…
A genuine one usually sticks out a mile’: Policing coercive control in England and Wales
In 2015, legislation was enacted in England and Wales to criminalise coercive control. While there has been considerable debate on the merits of the law, there has been little empirical study of its use in practice. This paper presents findings from a focused ethnography conducted in two police forces in England. Field observations with first response officers and specialist investigators reveal structural and social-cultural contexts that mitiga…
Seeking Justice and Redress for Victim-Survivors of Image-Based Sexual Abuse
Despite apparent political concern and action—often fuelled by high-profile cases and campaigns—legislative and institutional responses to image-based sexual abuse in the UK have been ad hoc, piecemeal and inconsistent. In practice, victim-survivors are being consistently failed: by the law, by the police and criminal justice system, by traditional and social media, website operators, and by their employers, universities and schools. Drawing on d…
Baseline Characteristics of the 2015-2019 First Year Student Cohorts of the NIH Building Infrastructure Leading to Diversity (Build ) Program
The DPC national evaluation has identified a large, longitudinal cohort of students with many from groups historically underrepresented in the biomedical sciences that will inform institutional/national policy level initiatives to help diversify the biomedical workforce
It’s Torture for the Soul’: The Harms of Image-Based Sexual Abuse
Beyond ‘scandals’ and the public testimonies of victim-survivors, surprisingly little is known about the nature and extent of the harms of ‘image-based sexual abuse’, a term that includes all non-consensual taking and/or sharing of nude or sexual images. Accordingly, this article examines the findings from the first cross-national qualitative study on this issue, drawing on interviews with 75 victim-survivors of image-based sexual abuse in the UK…
Adherence to hepatitis A and hepatitis B multi-dose vaccination schedules among adults in the United Kingdom: A retrospective cohort study
Adherence and series completion rates for hepatitis A and B vaccines in the UK are low. Identifying, understanding, and addressing barriers to series completion for multi-dose vaccines for adults in real-world settings are needed
Structural violence and food insecurity in the lives of formerly homeless young adults living in permanent supportive housing
In this study, we explore the interconnections between structural violence and food insecurity in the lives of formerly homeless young adults living in permanent supportive housing. Using photovoice, participants identified several forms of structural violence that constrain their ability to access adequate and healthy food, including: insufficient funding through government assistance programs to cover monthly food costs; the lack of affordable,…
Invalidation Experiences Among Non-Binary Adolescents
Mental health disparities among transgender adolescents are well documented and have generally been attributed to minority stress. However, significantly less is known about the minority stress experiences of non-binary adolescents or those who do not identify as exclusively male or female. This study qualitatively explored the unique ways that non-binary adolescents experience minority stress and how it influences their mental health and well-be…
Putting Coercive Control into Practice: Problems and Possibilities
There is growing international interest in translating Stark’s concept of coercive control into criminal justice policy and practice. In December 2015 an offence of coercive control was introduced in England and Wales. This paper offers an empirical investigation of the problems and possibilities associated with the translation of this offence into practice in one police force area in England. The findings offer some scope for optimism in respons…
Under the Radar: The Widespread Use of ‘Out of Court Resolutions’ in Policing Domestic Violence and Abuse in the United Kingdom
The suitability of ‘out of court resolutions’ (restorative justice and community resolutions) in cases of domestic abuse is theoretically contentious and empirically under-researched. This study investigated the nature and extent of out of court resolutions for domestic abuse using the Freedom of Information Act. Out of court resolutions were used by every UK police force except Scotland to respond to over 5,000 domestic abuse incidents (includin…
Police use of discretion in response to domestic violence
This article addresses the issue of police officers’ use of discretion when responding to domestic violence. With reference to Ericson and Haggerty’s theory of risk-oriented policing, we collected data direct from information management systems in an English police force and conducted field observations with attending officers to explore the degree to which officers used discretion to interpret the national definition of domestic violence. We als…
Longitudinal Association Between BMI at Diagnosis and HIV Disease Progression
Access to HIV Care and Support Services for African American Transwomen Living with HIV
Low access to HIV care and support has led to survival rates for transwomen that are half that of other populations at risk for HIV. Within the population, HIV disproportionately impacts African American transwomen. Interventions to increase access to HIV care and support are needed to better serve those most affected and vulnerable within the population. We conducted a study of barriers and facilitators to care and support services for African A…
Purposeful Instruction: Mixing Up The “I,” “We,” and “You”
This article discusses the flexible nature of the gradual release of responsibility ( GRR ) as a frame for inquiry‐based science instruction. Given the mandate for the use of text‐supported learning (Common Core Standards), the GRR can be used to allow students to learn as scientists as they collaboratively develop testable questions and experiments that direct them to look at real‐world issues. Through various configurations of modeling, guided …

Text Mapping Plus: Improving Comprehension Through Supported Retellings
Modeled in this column is the teaching of a text mapping routine that supports students reading and remembering the salient features of the text. The authors renamed the story mapping technique text mapping plus because they found that as students added relational words and graphics to their maps their retells of both fiction and nonnarrative were fuller, more accurate, and shared with greater confidence. تمثّل في هذا العمود تدريس نظام مسح النص ا…
