Your First Five Crime Studies of May 22
All of today's research relates to sexual violence in higher education
Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you explain crime to your audience.
Your First Five is a daily tip sheet (M-F) that publishes a curated selection of recent research related to crime and justice. Each tip sheet contains links to new studies (each related to a single topic) that I hope will enhance your work explaining crime. The publication schedule is in flux until June.
These new studies related to criminology and criminal justice were published recently by journals I monitor.
1. Universal Sexual Violence Intervention Effects in a Cluster-Randomized Trial: Moderation by Sexual Orientation [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
2. Third-party intervention in high-risk situations in Africa: exploring factors influencing bystander intervention in sexual violence among college students [Global Crime]
3. Preventing Sexual Violence Within the Continuum: Differences in Bystander Intervention Engagement Among College Students [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
4. Facilitators and Barriers of Bystander Intervention Intent in Image-Based Sexual Abuse Contexts: A Focus Group Study with a University Sample [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
5. “It’s Not Like I Wanted Him Kicked Off the Football Team”: Alternative Approaches to Justice and Campus Sexual Assault [Crime & Delinquency]
I might cover some of these studies further in Understanding Crime. If one sounds interesting or important, let me know in the comments.
Your First Five and the directories I'm experimenting with are the output of my research discovery system. That system is intended to furnish a wide variety of crime research leads and facilitate choices of what new research to actually report on, both for myself and for the journalists among you. I hope others will find these tip sheets useful too.
