Your First Five Crime Studies of May 13
All of today's research relates to intimate partner violence
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. How to Evaluate Reports of Intimate Partner Violence? Examining Interpartner Agreement in a Forensic Sample of Different-Sex Couples Where Men are Accused of Intimate Partner Violence, published in Journal of Interpersonal Violence.
2. Examining Latina IPV Survivors’ Help-Seeking Experiences: Unmet Needs and Lack of Culturally Competent Services, published in Crime & Delinquency.
3. “I Put Her in the Baby Stroller and Left”: The Escape Route From Violence to a Domestic Violence Shelter for Mothers and Children, published in Violence Against Women.
4. Hostile Masculinity, Male Peer Support for Violence, and Problematic Anger: Linking Childhood Abuse to Men's Partner Violence Perpetration, published in Violence Against Women.
5. Stalking Perpetration in Adolescents in the Context of Intimate Partner Violence, published in Victims & Offenders.
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.
