To See and Be Seen: Sexual Assault Survivors' Experiences Seeing Their Perpetrators in Court During Criminal Prosecution
Jurisdictions throughout the USA have begun addressing backlogs of previously untested sexual assault kits. Based on new forensic DNA testing, decades-old cold cases are now being re-opened, and survivors are being asked to assist in the prosecution of both stranger- and nonstranger-perpetrated sexual assaults. We qualitatively interviewed N = 32 sexual assault survivors who participated in cold case prosecutions. We conducted a thematic analysis…
A longitudinal analysis of social integration, perceived emotional support, and posttraumatic stress in a community sample of sexual assault survivors
Social support has long been recognized as an individual and community resource that can reduce stress and promote well‐being, both in everyday life and after traumatic events. This study sought to explore the impact of two types of social support—social integration and perceived emotional support—on sexual assault survivors' longitudinal experiences of posttraumatic stress. We built on a previously conducted latent transition analysis to identif…
One after another: Vicarious trauma associated with archival record coding in sexual assault research
Sexual violence researchers have prolonged exposure to the pain and suffering of others, which can cause vicarious trauma (VT). To date, discussion of VT in sexual violence research has focused on qualitative interviews with sexual assault survivors and how those interactions affect researchers’ well-being. In this article, we explore how VT can develop archival record review studies. We conducted an autoethnographic analysis of four empirical ca…
The prosecution of sexual assault cases with forensic DNA evidence: Survivors’ testimony experiences
Will you be there for me?” Social support from family and friends during cold case sexual assault prosecutions
If sexual assault survivors report the assault to the criminal legal system, they often need informal support from family and friends throughout the long and frequently retraumatizing process of investigation and prosecution. This study is part of a long‐term community‐based participatory action research project in a predominately Black/African American U.S. city that is facing extended delays in sexual assault prosecution because the police have…
Alternative Reporting Options Across the United States: Documenting Each State’s Options for Sexual Assault Kit Collection Without a Police Report
Introduction The Violence Against Women Act requires that sexual assault victims be able to have a sexual assault kit (SAK) collected without reporting the assault to police, but the details of this “non-report SAK” option vary from state to state. The goal of this study was to analyze non-report SAK policies across the United States. Methods Information about each state’s policy was collected from 80 practitioners from January 2024 to June 2024.…
Community-based advocacy in “cold case” sexual assault prosecutions: A qualitative exploration of survivors’ and advocates’ experiences
Sexual assault survivors who report to the criminal legal system often need the assistance of victim advocates to navigate this complex and often retraumatizing system. In recent years, victim advocates have been called upon to assist more survivors in “cold case” sexual assault prosecutions. The term “cold case” refers to a criminal incident that is reopened years after it was initially reported, often because new evidence has become available. …
Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Prevention Programming During the Pandemic: How Prevention Educators Navigated Covid-19
Purpose Domestic violence and sexual assault (DVSA) primary prevention programming is often implemented during the school year, but the delivery of such programming was radically altered during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic when traditional in-person classrooms were often replaced by virtual learning. The immediate issue facing schools was getting academic content to students in this new environment, but there has been little research i…
Victim Notification Protocols for Untested Sexual Assault Kits: Survivors’ and Advocates’ Perspectives on Law Enforcement-Led Outreach Methods
Current estimates suggest there are 300,000-400,000 untested sexual assault kits (SAKs) in police department storage facilities throughout the United States. As these kits are being discovered and then submitted for forensic DNA testing, legal system personnel may recontact victims. These "victim notifications" involve informing survivors their kits were previously untested, sharing the results of new DNA testing, and asking for their engagement …
Domestic violence survivors’ housing stability, safety, and well-being over time: Examining the role of domestic violence housing first, social support, and material hardship
Intimate partner violence remains a significant public health issue and survivors often need various forms of support to achieve safety. The increased likelihood of experiencing housing instability and homelessness among survivors has led to an uptake in domestic violence agencies implementing housing-based interventions, such as Domestic Violence Housing First (DVHF), to address survivors' needs. The present study expands on prior research suppo…
Open science and data sharing in trauma research: Developing atrauma-informed protocol for archiving sensitive qualitativedata
Engaging participants in the archiving process is a feasible practice that is important and empowering for trauma survivors. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
Longitudinal patterns of posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms among sexual assault survivors: A latent transition analysis
The substantial heterogeneity in sexual assault survivors' PTSD symptoms highlights the variety of ways that posttraumatic stress may be experienced years after a sexual assault. Future research should explore factors that affect long-term symptoms, including cumulative lifetime trauma and social support. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

Understanding Sexual Assault Survivors’ Perspectives on Archiving Qualitative Data: Implications for Feminist Approaches to Open Science
The open science movement has framed data sharing as necessary and achievable best practices for high-quality science. Feminist psychologists have complicated that narrative by questioning the purpose of data sharing across different paradigms, methodologies, and research populations. In these debates, the academic community has centered the needs and voices of researchers, and participants’ perspectives are largely missing from this literature. …
Sexual assault survivors' engagement with advocacy services during the Covid‐19 pandemic
Sexual assault advocates provide support to survivors as they navigate medical, legal, housing, and other complex systems. However, social distancing measures enacted in response to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) forced changes to traditional advocacy services. The current study aimed to understand how the COVID‐19 pandemic transformed survivors' engagement with sexual assault advocacy services. Semi‐structured interviews were conducted with…
Examining Support for University‐to‐Police Reporting Policies for Sexual Assault: The Role of Survivors’ Consent
In several states, bills have been introduced that require universities to report sexual assaults to law enforcement. Opponents argue that such policies can compel survivors to disclose against their will, stripping survivors of autonomy and harming campus communities. We used a mixed method approach to examine people’s support for reporting policies that do and do not consider survivor consent: compelled police disclosure (requires a report rega…
A Trauma-Informed Approach to Sexual Violence Research Ethics and Open Science
The practice of ethics in social science research is a reflexive process of self-review to define a profession’s collective responsibility in the face of changing norms and expectations. In recent years, we have seen transformative changes in how society thinks about supporting sexual assault survivors, and how the scientific community thinks about our obligations to society. Decades of research on trauma and its impact has raised awareness about…
Posttraumatic stress disorder and measurement invariance in a sample of sexual assault survivors: Are symptom clusters stable over time
Trauma researchers and practitioners are advised to monitor item-level movement on dysphoria scales rather than focus on the average cluster score, because items in this symptom cluster may change in a less predictable way than do items in other symptom clusters. Lack of attention to this issue may lead to inaccurate or incomplete conclusions about how PTSD symptom clusters evolve over time. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights rese…

Assessing Triangulation Across Methodologies, Methods, and Stakeholder Groups: The Joys, Woes, and Politics of Interpreting Convergent and Divergent Data
The purpose of this study was to develop triangulation coding methods for a large-scale action research and evaluation project and to examine how practitioners and policy makers interpreted both convergent and divergent data. We created a color-coded system that evaluated the extent of triangulation across methodologies (qualitative and quantitative), data collection methods (observations, interviews, and archival records), and stakeholder groups…
