Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Our study investigated the extent to which a sample of college students reported having experienced online sexual victimization while juveniles before entering college; the extent to which their routine on- and off-line activities effected the rate at which the respondents reported online sexual victimization as juveniles. The primary theoretical perspective of the study was routine activities theory with the hypothesis that one's ordinary activities with regard to online behavior would have an impact on a juvenile's risk of online victimization. Students from a large Southern University participated in an online survey about their computer and Internet habits and any online sexual victimization they may have experienced while juveniles. Logistic and OLS regression indicated that those who spent more time online engaging in a wider variety of activities were significantly more likely to have experienced sexual solicitations and/or sexual victimization. Females were significantly more likely to have experienced an unwanted sexual solicitation/ victimization. Those who posted no information about themselves or posted false information about themselves were significantly more likely to have experienced an unwanted sexual solicitation/victimization than were those with truthful profiles. Respondents who had more online supervision were less likely to have experienced sexual solicitation/ victimization. Implications of these findings for future research and for policy are explored.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented look at college women's risks of and experiences with sexual victimization Unsafe in the Ivory Tower examines the nature and dimensions of a salient social problem—the sexual victimization of female college students today, and how women respond when they are, in fact, sexually victimized. The authors discuss the research that scholars have conducted to illuminate the origins and extent of this controversial issue as well as what can be done to prevent it. Students and other interested readers learn about the nature of victimization while simultaneously gaining an understanding of the ways in which criminologists, victimologists, and social scientists conduct research that informs theory and policy debates. Key Features Provides detailed information about sexual victimization on college campuses today Introduces broad lessons about the interactions of ideology, science and methodology, and public policy Integrates current data, research, and theory, based on the authors' national studies of more than 8,000 randomly selected female college students Intended Audience This supplemental text is ideal for courses such as Sex Crimes, Violence and Abuse, Victimology, Gender and Crime, Sociology of Violence, Sociology of Women, and the Sociology of Sex and Gender in departments of criminology, criminal justice, sociology, and women's studies. It is also useful for those involved in studying or creating public policy related to this issue and for those interested in sexual victimization on campuses generally.

Book excerpt: This research study utilizes web-based survey data collected from a convenience sample of college men and women to determine the impacts of gender roles and drinking motives on the ability to recognize sexual victimization. Sexual victimization is defined as a completed, attempted, or threatened sexual act (Koss & Oros, 1982). Bandura's (1973) Social Learning Theory is presented as a theoretical framework to explain why drinking motives and gender role may play an important role in sexual victimization. Three research questions are answered in the present study: (a) Is there a difference between men and women in identifying when a man should stop making sexual advances?; (b) Do motives for consuming alcohol predict alcohol consumption and the ability to recognize sexual violence?; and (c) Do gender roles and positive motives for consuming alcohol predict the ability to recognize unwanted sexual contact?

Book excerpt: Criminologists, political scientists, sociologists, planners, lawyers, security experts, and policy advocates address the most pressing crime and security issues that continue to face post-secondary administrators and their students, faculty, and staff. Each chapter addresses a specific issue, presents original research bearing on the issue, and discusses policy implications for higher education of the research. While some chapters continue to address long-standing topics such as sexual victimization and the role of campus police departments, many chapters address new and emerging topics such as stalking, computer hacking, and identity theft. The final part of the book suggests future directions for research, programs, and policies. Here, the authors review some of the major questions about campus crime and security that are still in need of answers and relate these to programs and policy decisions by campus administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual assault is highly prevalent on college campuses in the United States (U.S.), such that college students are at high risk for sexual victimization. Furthermore, while the disclosure rates to informal sources are more prevalent, disclosure to formal sources (e.g., legal authorities and university staff) and mental health service use of college students who have experienced sexual assault are low. As such, understanding the factors that either facilitate or hinder disclosure and service-seeking is of critical importance. Research has identified rape myth acceptance (RMA) and acknowledgment of the victimization (i.e., whether the survivor labels their experience as sexual assault) as two factors that shape the likelihood of whether a college survivor will disclose the incident or seek mental health services post-assault. The present study, therefore, focused on two aims: 1) to examine whether levels of RMA and acknowledgment are predictive of disclosing sexual assault and mental health service-seeking behaviors among college student survivors, and 2) to assess the indirect effects of RMA on disclosing the incident or seeking services for the assault via acknowledgment. Results identified RMA and acknowledgment as predictors of disclosure and service-seeking behaviors. Additionally, analyses provided evidence that certain types of rape myths are predictive of the outcomes. Results did not provide supporting evidence for the indirect effect of RMA on disclosure and service-seeking via acknowledgment. Implications for prevention, advocacy, and clinical practice, as well as future directions for research, are provided.

Book excerpt: Child abuse, sexual and domestic violence are among the most destructive experiences afflicting women and children. The wide prevalence of such violence takes an enormous toll on the lives of individual victims as well as the larger society, through innumerable behavioral, health, psychological, and economic consequences. While many groups, organizations, and government agencies have been established to identify, prevent, and treat such violence, our response to these problems has been piecemeal and not optimally successful. A coordinated, cross-disciplinary synthesis of what we know, how we know it, and the necessary next steps is sorely needed to enable us to effectively address these issues. Developed as part of an initiative by former APA President Alan Kazdin, this two-volume set aims to provide consensus recommendations for researchers, practitioners, advocates, policymakers, and all those who seek more effective responses to interpersonal violence. In volume 1, experts from diverse disciplines describe prevalence rates among various populations; risk factors for perpetration and vulnerability and protective factors for potential victims. They also document the impact of violence on the victims in terms of psychological, reproductive, maternal and child health, and behavioral and economic consequences. In the process, they establish commonalities across child abuse, sexual and domestic violence, and suggest vital next steps for collaborative efforts. In volume 2, eminent scholars use a public health model to examine current societal responses to interpersonal violence. Authors examine the efficacy of medical and psychological treatments for victims, families, and perpetrators, as well as justice system responses to various forms of child abuse, sexual violence, and domestic violence. Interventions are suggested at several levels of prevention, including initiatives designed to eradicate the problem (primary prevention), reduce it among those at risk (secondary prevention), and minimize the negative consequences of violence and stabilize health (tertiary prevention). Finally, the editors present an integrative conclusion that provides a sound foundation for future responses across practice, research, advocacy and policy, at the local and national level

Download or read book Image-based Sexual Abuse written by Nicola Henry and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-11 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the causes and consequences of image-based sexual abuse in a digital era. Image-based sexual abuse refers to the taking or sharing of nude or sexual photographs or videos of another person without their consent. It includes a diversity of behaviours beyond that of "revenge porn", such as the secret trading of nude or sexual images online; "upskirting", "downblousing" and other "creepshots"; blackmail or "sextortion" scams; the use of artificial intelligence to construct "deepfake" pornographic videos; threats to distribute photographs and videos without consent; and the taking or sharing of sexual assault imagery. This book investigates the pervasiveness and experiences of these harms, as well as the raft of legal and non-legal measures that have been introduced to better respond to and prevent image-based sexual abuse. The book draws on groundbreaking empirical research, including surveys in three countries with over 6,000 respondents and over 100 victim-survivor and stakeholder interviews. Guided by theoretical frameworks from gender studies, sociology, criminology, law and psychology, the authors argue that image-based sexual abuse is more commonly perpetrated by men than women, and that perpetration is higher among some groups, including younger and sexuality minority men. Although the motivations of perpetrators vary, a dominant theme to emerge was that of power and control. The gendered nature of the abuse means that it is best understood as a "continuum of sexual violence" because victim-survivors often experience it as part of a broader pattern of gendered harassment, violence and abuse. Written in a clear and direct style, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, law and psychology. Image-based Sexual Abuse is also an essential resource for activists, legal and policy practitioners, technology companies and victim-survivors seeking to understand the deeply complex nature of intimate-image sharing in a digital era.

This book was released on 2023-09-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features the empirical work of internationally known scholars, providing an in-depth examination of the overlap between online and offline victimization and offending. The vast expanse of the Internet has provided a limitless playground for offenders to prey on those unaware of their predators, or well as those who are intimately familiar with their offenders. However, the Internet does not isolate offenders into mutually exclusive categories. Instead, it has allowed many offenders to use both offline and online platforms to commit crime. It also opened up more opportunity for violation of victims. This volume features two divisions of the American Society of Criminology, the Division of Victimology and Division of Cybercrime, who have joined forces to sponsor a special issue on the overlap between forms of online and offline victimization and offending. International scholars in this book provide a notable spectrum of different forms of this phenomenon, as well as predictors of these behaviors. The Link between Specific Forms of Online and Offline Victimization will be a key resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Victimology, Cybercime, Criminology and Criminal Justice. The chapters included in this book were originally published in Victims & Offenders.
