How a food scanner app influences healthy food choice
The use of mobile applications to assist with food decision making has increased significantly. Although food scanner applications provide nutritional information to consumers in the marketplace, little is known about their effects on users' intentions and behavior. This research investigates whether a mobile food scanner app can influence consumers toward healthier food choices. Four studies tested whether information displayed through a food sc…
Contested gendered space
Feminist research and activism has along history of engaging with the range and extent of men’s intrusive practices on women in public, taking as itsstarting point public space as aplace where gender relations are contested. Here, the impact of men’s practices on women and girls is understood not only in terms of their safety, but also their freedom, highlighting how the “safety work” mandated for women and girls in public functions to limit wome…
Interventions against child abuse and violence against women
This book offers insights and perspectives from a study of “Cultural Encounters in Intervention Against Violence” (CEINAV) in four EU-countries. Seeking a deeper understanding of the underpinnings of intervention practices in Germany, Portugal, Slovenia and the United Kingdom, the team explored variations in institutional structures and traditions of law, policing, and social welfare. Theories of structural inequality and ethics are discussed and…
Le continuum de la violence sexuelle
Cet article traite de l'emploi du concept de continuum en matière de violence sexuelle dans le cadre d’une recherche et du débat touchant à cette question. Deux des objectifs initiaux de cette recherche étaient d’explorer les liens entre les différentes formes de violence sexuelle et d’examiner l'idée, qui émergea à l'occasion d'un travail effectué dans un refuge pour femmes battues 1 , que la plupart des femmes font l'expérience de la violence s…
Child protection systems between professional cooperation and trustful relationships
This paper explores practical and ethical dilemmas for professionals when securing the protection of children in the complex non‐clinical setting of individual families. It is based on a cross‐country study on cultural encounters in interventions against child physical abuse and neglect in four countries (England/Wales, Germany, Portugal, and Slovenia). Drawing on national reports of legal‐organizational frameworks and socio‐cultural backgrounds …
Long Journeys Toward Freedom
We report on the development of, and findings from, two scales measuring coercive control and space for action over a period of 3 years in a sample of 100 women who had accessed domestic violence services. We present statistical evidence to show a significant correlation between coercive control and space for action. However, dealing with violence is not a linear process, and support needs to extend beyond being enabled to separate. The scales ad…
Time Out”
This article critically explores accounts of how men attending domestic violence perpetrator programs (DVPP) used the "time out" strategy. Findings are drawn from 71 semi-structured interviews with 44 men attending DVPPs and 27 female partners or ex-partners of men in DVPPs. We describe three ways in which the technique was used: first, as intended, to interrupt potential physical violence; second, through the effective adaption of the time-out r…
Naming and Defining ‘Domestic Violence
In this paper we draw on data from in-depth interviews with men who have used violence and abuse within intimate partner relationships to provide a new lens through which to view the conceptual debates on naming, defining and understanding ‘domestic violence’, as well as the policy and practice implications that flow from them. We argue that the reduction of domestic violence to discrete ‘incidents’ supports and maintains how men themselves talk …
Ethics in Violence and Abuse Research - a Positive Empowerment Approach
Research governance, including research ethics committees and data protection legislation, is invested in protecting the individual rights of participants in social care and health research. Increasingly funders expect evidence of outcomes that engage with 'service users', making research critical in supporting social interventions to compete for scant resources in an economic climate marked by 'austerity' ( Sullivan 2011 ). This article focuses …
Roads to Nowhere? Mapping Violence Against Women Services
This article reports on two separate research projects that use mapping techniques, specifically Geographic Information Systems (GIS), to assess the spatial characteristics of access to specialized support services for women who have experienced domestic/sexual violence, female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C), and sexual exploitation. In the first project, maps document the location of specialized violence against women (VAW) services across n…
The (In)credible Words of Women
The issue of false allegations in rape cases cannot be understood without reference to the ways in which rape law and its interpretation has historically problematized “the words of a woman” when what they were speaking about was sexual v iolation. Whilst the letter of the law has been reformed in many countries, legacies remain sedimented into institutional cultures and practices, creating a risk of ov er-identification of false allegations by p…
Public Sociology
Sexual Violence and Rape
Rape attracted limited attention across the social sciences and humanities until it emerged as a key issue for feminists in the early 1970s. Most scholarship on the subject dates from this time, with the highest concentration appearing during the 1970s and 1980s. The first sociological study – Menachim Amir's Patterns in Forcible Rape (1971) – addressed the victimology of rape. But it, along with most previous work, was subjected to intense femin…
A Gap or A Chasm?
Inside Outsiders
The campaign by feminists to gender the international human rights agenda predates the emergence of mainstreaming as a methodology. This ‘activist mainstreaming’ provides an interesting case study since it operates at the transnational level with actors primarily from civil society. This article explores how the issue of violence against women provided a strategic framing for a global alliance, which also proved adept at using the political oppor…

The Perils of Inclusion and Exclusion
Intense and unresolved debates on prostitution are played out in discussions of trafficking in interesting and contradictory ways. Should women and girls be designated ‘victims’ or ‘migrant sex workers’? And what are the implications in practice of each position for those detected in foreign countries? Other questions such as the globalisation of the sex industry, the extension of sex markets in terms of demand for foreign women are rarely interr…
The Wrong Debate
This short piece is a contribution to debates within feminism and beyond about trafficking in women. A charge that the research unit (Child and Woman Abuse Studies Unit, London Metropolitan University) I work in is now very familiar with, is that we fail to make distinctions between women who are 'forced ' and those who are ‘migrant sex workers’. Rather than explicitly defend our work and practice[i], I want to use this opportunity to argue that …

Nothing really happened
A frequens remark wome make about experiences of phisical and sexual abuse is that 'nothing really happened'. We explore the meaning of this of events that did indeed happen is both reflected in, and reinforced by the criminal justice system. The implications of inclusion and exclussion in definitions of sexual violence are explored, especially in relation of cam paigns for legal reform

The Continuum of Sexual Violence
This chapter discusses the application of the concept of the continuum of sexual violence to research on, and discussion of, the issue of sexual violence. Two of the original aims of the research were to explore the links between the different forms of sexual violence and to investigate the idea, which arose whilst working in a refuge for battered women, that most women have experience of sexual violence in their lifetime.1 Whilst analysing the i…

Women's Studies
Mary Evans' article on women's studies (Evans, 1982) makes a spirited attempt to defend the practitioners of women's studies within academic institutions, principally those of the tertiary sector, from the accusations that they and their teaching is not feminist, since it is an altemative to political feminist practice, and therefore diminishes the latter, and/or that it is elitist and serves only to further the interests of its protagonists (tea…
