Blaming Victims in Cases of Interpersonal Violence
Research on blaming victims of female interpersonal violence (IPV) has evolved over the past 25 to 30 years, though often in a piecemeal fashion. Studies often blend attitudes toward women, justification for IPV, and blame in various ways depending on the instrument and/or scale being used. The current study isolates these variables more specifically to determine the unique effects attitudes toward women and justification have on blaming female v…
Gender and Publication Patterns
Women's authorship has historically been underrepresented in criminal justice publications. The current study updates previous research by examining the authorship patterns of articles published in 8 criminological journals spanning 2007 to 2013. Women's representation increased from earlier rates but remained below that of their male contemporaries. This growth corresponded with general trends of increasing coauthorship, suggesting that the rece…
Stories of Resistance
This study explores the ways that women are shaped by hearing and telling stories of resistance to violence. By examining the narratives of women discussing stories of resistance, this analysis treats resistance as forms of resilience and empowerment that women knit together to create lives free of abuse. This research suggests that women view themselves as actively working to create violence-free relationships, that women's construction of viole…
Role Strain and Incarcerated Mothers
A survey was administered to 109 mothers incarcerated at a minimum-security prison. The purpose of this study was to examine a variety of variables associated with being a mother in prison to determine whether these factors affected the maternal role strain of incarcerated women. The findings suggest that women in prison experience high levels of role strain as a whole. However, white women, women who had served longer sentences, women who had no…

Women and the publication process
Journal publications have a great impact on academic disciplines; they have the power to define topics of inquiry and to structure research questions. Prior research suggests that women do not participate in the publication process in proportion to their representation in various disciplines. This study reports the results of a content analysis of criminal justice journals which examines women's participation in the publication process
