Your First Five Crime Studies of June 25
All of today's research relates to non-consensual intimate image distribution
Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you write and read about crime. Critically, accurately, responsibly, and ethically.
Published Tuesdays and Thursdays, Your First Five is a free tip sheet made up of a curated selection of recent research related to crime and justice.
These new1 studies related to criminology and criminal justice were published recently by journals I monitor.
1. “I Did Not Want to Make a Bigger Deal Out of It than It Was”: A Mixed-Method Study on the Help-Seeking Behavior of Victims of Image-Based Sexual Harassment and Abuse [Journal of Interpersonal Violence]
2. Disclosure Decisions and Help-Seeking Experiences Amongst Victim-Survivors of Non-Consensual Intimate Image Distribution [Victims & Offenders]
3. Examining perceptions of blame and homophobia: the impact of sexual orientation on non-consensual intimate image dissemination [Psychology, Crime & Law]
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. Image-Based Sexual Abuse as a Means of Coercive Control: Victim-Survivor Experiences [Violence Against Women]
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.
Well, that’s relative with today’s studies. Number 5 is from 2022.
