  • Assessing the Impact of Media on Blaming the Victim of Acquaintance Rape

    Open AccessClaire R Gravelin, Monica Biernat et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Women Quarterly2024Cited by: 3References: 43

    Along with the direct trauma of their experience, many rape victims also suffer secondary victimization due to the tendency of others to blame victims for their assault, particularly in cases of acquaintance rape. We explored the role of news media coverage in promoting victim blaming tendencies. In Study 1, a content analysis of articles reporting sexual assaults from two newspapers revealed a tendency for media to overreport stranger rapes and …

  • Blaming the Victim of Acquaintance Rape

    Open AccessClaire R Gravelin, Monica Biernat et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychology2019

    Victims of rape are uniquely vulnerable for being blamed for their assault relative to victims of other interpersonal crimes and thus much research has been conducted to understand why this is the case. But the study of victim blaming in acquaintance rape cases is hindered by contradictory empirical results. Early investigations in victim blaming often treated acquaintance rapes and stranger rapes as synonymous and thus much of these data are sus…

  • The impact of power and powerlessness on blaming the victim of sexual assault

    Open AccessClaire R Gravelin, Monica Biernat et al.ARTICLEGroup Processes & Intergroup…2017Cited by: 4References: 15

    Sexual assault is often described as motivated by power, yet there is relatively little experimental research investigating the effect of power (and powerlessness) on interpretations of a sexual assault. Two studies manipulated participants’ feelings of power prior to a thought-listing task about sexual assault victims (Study 1) or an evaluation of a case of sexual assault (Study 2). Among men, feelings of powerlessness led to reduced victim blam…

  • Perceived importance of cross-race targets facilitates recall

    Open AccessMatthew Baldwin, Matthew R Baldwin et al.ARTICLEGroup Processes & Intergroup…2012Cited by: 4References: 5

    The cross-race effect (CRE) is the tendency to remember same-race (SR) faces better than cross-race (CR) faces. While there has been debate about the causes of the CRE, recent perspectives suggest that a lack of motivation to remember CR faces causes this effect. We provide direct support for this model across two studies manipulating the perceived importance of target faces. In Study 1 participants were outcome-dependent on a Black or White rese…
