Download or read book Acquaintance and Date Rape written by Jennifer Dziuba-Leatherman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1994-09-29 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This annotated bibliography reviews scholarly work on acquaintance and date rape published in recent years. Acquaintance rape research has grown significantly since the mid-1980s, and it is often argued that acquaintance rape is a common occurrence, especially on college campuses. It is also argued that this type of sexual assault is very different from stranger rape, principally because of the socially defined and accepted nature of the relationship between the victim and the perpetrator. Works specifically on acquaintance or date rape are included, as well as earlier works that led to the emergence of the separate conceptual category of acquaintance rape. Each work is summarized, and the annotation includes a statement of the purpose, the method, and the major findings of the work. Separate chapters are devoted to the incidence of acquaintance rape; its social correlates; and its causes, effects, treatment, and prevention.

Download or read book Perceptions of Dating Violence and Cyber Dating Abuse Among College and University Females Aged 18 25 written by Monique C. Huntley and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence (DV) and cyber dating abuse (CDA) is an eminent public health issue with significant implications on young adult females. The purpose of this mixed-method study was to explore the prior exposure to behaviors associated with DV and CDA of females aged 18-25 years attending college in Texas or California, and to ascertain their knowledge and attitudes of DV- and CDA-related behaviors, campus support services, and prevention programs. Limited studies have researched the perceptions and attitudes of dating violence victimization among female college students exclusively. This study wanted to gain a deeper understanding of the perceptions of what college females aged 18-25 years perceive as DV and CDA behaviors. Participants completed an on-line demographic survey, the Cyber Dating Abuse Questionnaire (CDAQ) and the Dating Violence Questionnaire-Revised (DVQ-R). Additionally, participants participated in a face-to-face semi-structured interview with the researcher. Twenty participants who resided in Texas and California participated in the study. The data analysis utilized descriptive statistics to interpret the demographic items (sex, age, race and ethnicity, location of college, and status of abuse in a dating relationship), as well as frequencies, means of the sum scores, and standard deviations of the DVQ-R and CDAQ scales and subscales. Spearman correlations were computed between the scales with age and grade level. Mann-Whitney U tests were conducted to assess differences by ethnicity (Latina vs. Other) and by whether or not the participants had ever been in an abusive relationship. Primary and secondary nodes were utilized for the qualitative analysis. Responses to the DVQ-R and CDAQ were scored and compared to the feedback from the semi-structured interview responses on DV victimization. The DVQ-R was analyzed on the frequency and disturbance/distress of DV victimization behaviors that participants experienced in a dating relationship. The study revealed college females aged 18-24 years did not currently experience the four cyber dating abuse types, but they had experienced it in the past. Moreover, the college female students aged 18-24 years reported experiencing a mild or moderate level of disturbance for each of the five behaviors of detachment, humiliation, sexual, coercion, and physical dating violence in their dating relationship. The qualitative results of the study revealed that the participants were more definitive in their descriptions of physical and sexual DV in their interview responses compared to their answers on the survey. Finally, participants reported DV and CDA prevention programs should include the recognition of abuse, CDA awareness, enhancing self-esteem, effective communication, and how to leave an abusive relationship and/or seek help. Therefore, the results from the current study could help in the development of specific health education DV and CDA prevention strategies for college females.
Download or read book Violence in Dating Relationships written by Jan E. Stets and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1989-05-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extremely valuable collection of fourteen chapters is divided into two sections, with the first section covering research on physical abuse in dating relationships and the second section covering the issue of sexual abuse in dating relationships. With the increasing public awareness of and concern about acquaintance rape, this is an excellent and timely book. It should be in the library of any researcher who studies violence against women and it would also be an invaluable resource for any college faculty or administrator who seeks to provide a healthy educational environment for all students. The Community Psychologist Fourteen significant articles on physical and sexual abuse in dating relationships provide a comprehensive, interdisciplinary review of the subject. The contributors to this anthology examine every aspect of the serious, but usually hidden social problems of dating violence. The articles create a theoretical framework for understanding physical and sexual abuse and chronicle the antecedents and consequences of different types of abusive behavior. State of the art research on dating violence provides the reader with extensive material. Each chapter ends with policy implications and directions for future research. Educators, researchers, and practitioners in sociology, criminology, psychology, psychiatry, and women's studies will find valuable information on this important subject. The first part of the collection presents statistical information and compares dating violence with cohabitating and marital violence. Such subjects as courtship aggression and the effects of gender identity and self-esteem on dating violence are explored. One study suggests two types of courtship violence--predatory violence and relational violence. Another addresses patterns in help seeking behavior by those abused. The second part of the book deals with sexual aggression in dating relationships. Victimization, as well as the prevalence, risk factors, and long term consequences of date rape are presented. Other topics include predictors of sexual aggression, dating behaviors and their relationship to the risk of date rape, and acquaintance rape.

Download or read book Technology and Domestic and Family Violence written by Bridget Harris and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-01-30 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together academics and advocates to explore an emerging issue: the use of technology by perpetrators of domestic and family violence. Of interest too is critique of government and non-government activities in this arena and how technology can be harnessed to respond to harm. Domestic and family violence (DFV) is widely recognised as an important social issue, impacting the safety and wellbeing of victim/survivors and their children, and on a broader scale, threatening risk and security on global levels. This book provides insights drawn from research and practice in the Global South and Global North to provide an evidence base and real-world solutions and initiatives to understand, address and ultimately prevent technology-facilitated domestic and family violence and how technology can be used to effect positive change and empower victim/survivors and communities. Technology and Domestic and Family Violence will be of great interest to students and scholars on victimology, criminology, social work, law, women’s studies, sociology and media studies. It will also be a valuable reference for practitioners, government and non-government advocates working on issues around domestic violence.

This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 982 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive, two-volume work examines domestic abuse in the United States and worldwide, providing research, personal stories, and primary documents that reveal the extent of the problem. An estimated 1,300 to 1,800 Americans are murdered by intimate partners each year. Far from being a problem that only impacts women, domestic violence hurts society as a whole both socially as well as financially, with an estimated direct and indirect cost of nearly $6 billion annually in the United States. This book provides a timely and thorough reference for educators, students, scholars and activists seeking to better understand the global issue of domestic abuse. The entries document the history of the domestic violence prevention movement, provide explanations for abuse, identify warning signs of hidden abuse, describe types of victims and offenders, and supply information on interventions and prevention programs. Written by an array of experts in the field, the book also integrates the personal stories of survivors and addresses abuse as a global issue by covering topics such as acid attacks and female genital mutilation.
