Introduction to “#MeToo Movement”
The #MeToo movement was started in 2006 by Tarana Burke to recognize experiences of sexual assault and harassment, particularly by women of color in low-income communities. The movement encourages
Reliability and Validity of the Sexual Experiences Survey–Short Forms Victimization and Perpetration
The Sexual Experiences Survey (SES), the most widely used measure of unwanted sexual experiences, was recently updated (Koss et al., 2007). The purpose of this study was to provide psychometric data on the updated Sexual Experiences Survey–Short Form Perpetration (SES-SFP) and the Sexual Experiences Survey–Short Form Victimization (SES-SFV). Men ( n = 136) and women ( n = 433) were randomly assigned to in-person or Internet formats of administrat…
Theory into Research Practice
Six women faculty came together to research their peers asking other women in COAMFTE-accredited programs about their personal and professional identities. The goal of this research was to develop recommendations for the field of Couple/Marriage and Family Therapy to support the engagement and advancement of women faculty. The research collaboration itself became a heuristic, feminist praxis, a co-creation of insight, support network, and profess…
Concurrent Administration of Sexual Assault Prevention and Risk Reduction Programming
The present study describes the 4- and 7-month postintervention outcomes of a sexual assault risk reduction program for women, which was part of an evaluation that included a prevention program for men. Relative to the control group, participants evidenced more relational sexual assertiveness and self-protective behavior, and were more likely to indicate that they utilized active verbal and physical self-defense strategies. Whether or not women e…

Emerging Issues in the Measurement of Rape Victimization
We provide an overview of emerging directions in the measurement of rape, the most extreme form of sexual victimization. The context for our overview is how operational definitions of rape have evolved, where consensus has emerged, and where it eludes the field. We discuss two approaches to the detection of rape victimization in survey methods, namely behaviorally specific questions and a new, two-stage approach, and how each can be evaluated in …
Alaskan Gay Males’ Couple Experiences of Societal Non-Support
Marriage and Family Therapists' Comfort Working with Lesbian and Gay Male Clients
The purpose of this study was to explore potential influences on marriage and family therapists' comfort level when working with lesbian and gay male clients, including sex, age, race, sexual orientation, political orientation, religious practices of the therapist, as well as the level of support for lesbian and gay male human rights. Participants in this study were 199 experienced therapists. Results indicated that higher levels of religious pra…
The Influence of Supervisor and Supervisee Matching, Role Conflict, and Supervisory Relationship on Supervisee Satisfaction
The Self-of-the-Therapist Awakened
The importance of use of self in therapy has been growing in recent years, in part because of the rise in popularity of postmodern therapeutic approaches. Such postmodern approaches, including Collaborative Language Systems, Feminist Therapy, and Narrative Therapy, espouse different ways for use of self in therapy. In this article, we briefly review the history of development of use of self through modernism to postmodernism. Next, we elaborate o…
Creating a Collaborative Research Team
As a team and as individuals, we discuss our success as a research team in the context of being connected to our collaboration. Research collaboration is not a new topic, however, there is little written on the subject. For these reasons, we felt it was important to give voice to our collaborative efforts and include the aspects we believe made it successful. Through dialogue about our research process, aspects of successful collaboration were id…

Ethnic Differences in Battered Women's Formal Help-Seeking Strategies
The primary goal of this study was to identify ethnic differences in battered women's use of health, mental health, and spiritual coping strategies, as well as differences in the perceived helpfulness of each strategy. The authors recruited a sample of 376 African American and Caucasian victims of interpersonal violence from various sites. In comparison with Caucasian women in the sample, African American women were significantly more likely to r…
Does Therapist Experience Influence Interruptions of Women Clients
The feminist critique of marriage and family therapy and studies of interruptions in conversation influenced the topic of the present study. We replicated methodology from a study (Werner-Wilson, Price, Zimmerman, & Murphy, 1997) in which the researchers reported that student therapists interrupted women clients more frequently than male clients. Those results may have been related to therapist inexperience-since the therapists were students. In …
