Diverse Intimate Partner Violence Survivors’ Experiences Seeking Help from the Police
Intimate partner violence (IPV), inclusive of all forms of abuse, is an ongoing public health and criminal-legal issue that transcends social boundaries. However, there is a lack of equitable representation of diverse populations who experience IPV in the literature. To garner a holistic knowledge of diverse IPV survivor populations’ experiences with seeking help from the police, the current review utilized a qualitative research synthesis method…
Stop Giving Us What You Think We Need. Come to Us and Ask Us What We Need”
Justice is typically thought of as a product of the criminal legal system. However, prior research has found that survivors of domestic and sexual abuse may also value other factors outside of the legal system. This study explores perceptions of justice held by 96 survivors of domestic abuse. Responses to an online survey indicate that perceptions of justice are complex and multifaceted. Survivors often spoke of justice as accountability, restora…
The Prevalence and Nature of Victimization among First Semester Students at Urban, Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs)
Victimization is associated with compromised psychosocial functioning and educational attainment, but research has yet to investigate the victimization experiences of students who attend Hispanic-Serving Institutions, specifically, to inform programming and services. This study examines the prevalence and nature of victimization (i.e. non-sexual interpersonal victimization, stalking, contact and non-contact sexual victimization, property victimiz…
Analyzing the shifting state of college sexual violence compelled disclosure policies
Following federal and state law, institutions of higher education (IHE) have implemented mandatory reporting (MR) policies, requiring some employees to report sexual violence they learn about to university officials regardless of victim/survivor consent (i.e., compelled disclosure). Proponents argue that MR policies are beneficial (e.g., provide survivors with support), while critics argue that MR policies that limit survivor autonomy can be harm…
Perceptions of Sexual Violence Terms Used in Statutes Throughout the United States
The terminology used to describe sexually violent offenses vary, and how these labels are interpreted by the public remains unclear. This study explores the terms for the primary-legally most severe-offense of sexual violence in legal statutes across the United States and investigates how different terms evoke different perceptions about crime severity. Results indicate that nine different terms are used to identify the primary offense of sexual …
Reproductive Coercion Among College Students
The current study is guided by routine activity theory to explore the risk of experiencing reproductive coercion among a sample of sexually active college students ( N = 1,515). Findings indicate that being in an exclusive relationship was associated with lower odds of reproductive coercion, yet prior victimization, including emotional abuse and sexual violence, was associated with higher odds of reproductive coercion. This study supports other r…
An international examination of the role of normative and cultural contexts on attitudinal support for intimate partner violence against wives
This study analyzes World Values Survey data ( individual N = 63,307; country N = 53) to examine individual and national factors that shape attitudinal support toward men’s physical violence against their wives. We assess how the national context conditions direct individual-level effects. Greater national support toward this form of intimate partner violence exerts a positive effect on individuals’ supportive intimate partner violence attitudes.…
Distorted Reality
Our commentary responds to claims made by DiMarco and colleagues in an article published in this journal that the majority of victims of rape are men and that 80% of those who rape men are women. Although we strongly believe that studying male sexual victimization is a highly important research and policy endeavour, we have concerns with the approach taken by DiMarco and colleagues to discuss these incidents. Specifically, we critique their paper…
Walking the Tightrope
One of the goals of the #MeToo movement is to elevate the voices of survivors. Course content related to sexual victimization often stresses the importance of understanding the experiences of victims of crime, and it is likely that such discussions result in student disclosures of sexual victimization to faculty. At the same time, institutions of higher education have created policies, such as making professors “mandatory reporters,” which requir…
Neighborhoods and Intimate Partner Violence
We consider the broad developments that have occurred over the past decade regarding our knowledge of how neighborhood context impacts intimate partner violence (IPV). Research has broadened the concept of “context” beyond structural features such as economic disadvantage, and extended into relationships among residents, collective “action” behaviors among residents, cultural and gender norms. Additionally, scholars have considered how the built …
Sexual Victimization and Sexual Harassment among College Students
Intimate Partner Stalking among College Students
Understanding Decision-Making in Specialized Domestic Violence Courts
This study fills a gap in the literature by exploring the utility of contemporary courtroom theoretical frameworks-uncertainty avoidance, causal attribution, and focal concerns-for explaining decision-making in specialized domestic violence courts. Using data from two specialized domestic violence courts, this study explores the predictors of prosecutorial and judicial decision-making and the extent to which these factors are congruent with theor…
A small constellation
Police in the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK) now routinely use risk assessment tools to identify common risk factors for re-abuse and lethality when responding to domestic abuse. Nevertheless, little is known about the extent to which officers understand and perceive the importance of factors commonly included on risk assessment tools for predicting future abuse. This study attempts to shed some light into this area of research by…
Under the radar
Physical violence is but one of many tools that may be used to gain greater power within intimate relationships, yet the legal response has been critiqued for failing to recognise and respond to the full spectrum of abusive behaviours, such as coercive control. Using a sample of police officers from the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK), the current study utilises hypothetical vignettes to assess police officers’ perceptions of domes…
Intimate Partner Violence and Subsequent Depression
This study examines the direct effects of neighborhood supportive mechanisms (e.g., collective efficacy, social cohesion, social networks) on depressive symptoms among females as well as their moderating effects on the impact of IPV on subsequent depressive symptoms. A multilevel, multivariate Rasch model was used with data from the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods to assess the existence of IPV and later susceptibility of de…
Exposure to violence, substance use, and neighborhood context
Domestic Violence
Domestic violence ( DV ) is a major social issue affecting both men and women in American society. While DV is not new phenomenon, little was known about the dynamics surrounding it prior to the 1970s. Since the 1970s, more research has been devoted to studying this distinct form of violence. Estimates of DV , based on both official and self‐reports, in the United States are given, followed by a discussion of two distinct typologies of DV . This …
The Protective Effects of Neighborhood Collective Efficacy on Adolescent Substance Use and Violence Following Exposure to Violence
The Impact of Neighborhoods on Intimate Partner Violence and Victimization
Research on intimate partner violence (IPV) and victimization is widespread across disciplines. To date, the majority of research underscores the importance of individual-level factors to explain IPV, thereby neglecting the significance of macro-level elements. Nevertheless, research suggests that the characteristics of the neighborhood where an individual lives are important for fully understanding IPV. This review focuses on the effects of neig…
