Assessing the Reversed Gender Gap in the Swedish Crime Survey: Reasons Why Young Women Report Higher Victimization Rates Than Young Men During the Period 2009 to 2016
Self-reported victimization among young women in the Swedish Crime Survey increased during the early- to mid-2010s, resulting in a gender gap, with young women reporting 10% to 15% higher victimization rates than young men. In this study, we use multi-group confirmatory factor analysis to assess whether the increase in victimization rates is due to declines in measurement equivalence across different cohorts of young women during the period 2009 …
Swedish doctoral students’ perceptions of how power asymmetries and career gatekeeping influence the risk of sexual harassment
Power asymmetries and career gatekeeping have been highlighted in previous research as central factors for understanding why doctoral students are vulnerable to sexual harassment. However, there is a lack of up-to-date research addressing how power and career gatekeeping impact the perceived risk of sexual harassment among doctoral students in the Swedish context. The aim of the present study is to explore how the perceived risk of sexual harassm…
University Support and Prevention Needs for Sexual Harassment: What Do European Students and Doctoral Students Ask For
This study explores experiences of and reflections on sexual harassment in academia among students and doctoral students from Belgium, Croatia, Germany, and Sweden. Prevalence studies show that sexual harassment is a common occurrence and has negative consequences not only on mental health in general but also on academic performance. However, little is known about what kinds of support and prevention are needed. Therefore, the aim of this study h…
My trust in strangers has disappeared completely: How hate crime, perceived risk, and the concealment of sexual orientation affect fear of crime among Swedish LGBTQ students
Previous research has established correlations between anti-LGBTQ hate crime, fear of crime, perceived victimization risk, and the concealment of sexual orientation. Aside from correlations, the relationships between these variables remain poorly understood. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to explore the relationships between anti-LGBTQ hate crime, perceived risk, and the concealment of sexual orientation in relation to fear of crime. …
Obstacles in Identifying Sexual Harassment in Academia: Insights from Five European Countries
Introduction Experiences of sexual harassment are common among university students. At the same time, research shows that victims and bystanders find it difficult to determine when an incident meets the criteria for sexual harassment. The aim of this study therefore was to obtain a richer and deeper understanding of the obstacles that university students encounter in identifying sexual harassment in the academic environment. Methods Individual in…
If you dress like a whore you have to accept being treated like one: An Interview Study About Women’s Experiences of Misogynistic Hate Crime
The inclusion of gender in hate crime legislation has been the subject of scholarly debate since the 1990s, but only a handful of empirical studies have focused on victims’ experiences of gender-bias hate crime. Therefore, misogynistic hate crimes are primarily discussed as a theoretical or legal category of events. In this study, the aim is instead to shed light on how female victims define, describe, and are affected by their experiences of gen…
Discursive Constructions of Race and Gender in Racial Hate Crime Targeting Women in Sweden
Research and official statistics alike identify women from racial minorities as a high-risk group for racial hate crime. Still, the construction of women in racial hate crime remains largely unstudied and the current knowledge on racial hate crime against women can at best be described as fragmentary. Therefore, aim of the present study is to explore the constructions of race and gender from the perspective of female victims of racial hate crime.…
Swedish Women’s Experiences of Misogynistic Hate Crimes: The Impact of Victimization on Fear of Crime
The overall aim of this study is to fill a knowledge gap regarding misogynistic hate crimes, since only one previous study has focused on victims’ experiences. Drawing from a sample of 1,767 female students, the results show that women with experiences of misogynistic hate crimes are more likely to be subjected to sexual harassment, repeat victimization, and to have been targeted by strangers. They consistently report higher levels of fear of cri…
