Predictors of traumatic stress symptoms in police personnel exposed to sexual trauma
This article presents findings from a survey which explored exposure to sexual offence material in Police personnel ( N = 384). Factor analysis determined that two types of coping strategies were employed: ‘detachment’ and ‘avoidance’, with a further factor regarding ‘negative coping beliefs’. Two types of adverse impact analogous to post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms were identified: ‘cognitive/affective changes’ and ‘increased suspicion/vi…
Trauma characteristics and posttraumatic growth
Relationships between trauma characteristics and PTG appear to be explained through the presence of avoidant coping strategies, intrusive thoughts, and the individual's social environment, which could be the focus of intervention efforts to promote positive change.

Research elsewhere has suggested that the level of victim engagement with support services is generally low, and that many individuals are at risk of trauma symptomology and associated negative psychological outcomes as a result. The existing literature examining barriers to engagement with victim services is relatively small and largely quantitative, and a detailed qualitative examination of decisions to engage with victim services has yet to be…

A total of 369 young adults completed a variety of qu…

Investigating Three Explanations of Women's Relationship Aggression
This study investigated explanations of women's partner aggression in a sample of 358 women. Women completed measures of physical aggression, control, and fear. Three explanations of women's partner aggression were explored: (a) that its use is associated with fear, (b) that it is reciprocal, and (c) that it is coercive. Each explanation received partial support, with multivariate analysis showing that collectively they explained significant prop…
Intimate Terrorism and Common Couple Violence
This study sought to both replicate and considerably extend the findings of Johnson (1999) that there are two distinct subgroups of physical aggression within relation-ships: intimate terrorism and common couple violence. The present sample consisted of women residing at Women's Aid shelters and their partners (N = 86), male and female students (N = 208), men attending male treatment programs for domestic violence and their partners (N = 8), and …
