▼ This study explored characteristics among college men for perpetrating
sexual violence. The sequential mixed-methods study began with qualitative preliminary work, which led to the development of the cross sectional quantitative study implemented later. In the preliminary work phase, vignettes depicting
sexual violence among college students were tested on undergraduate participants. Written participant responses shaped questions later used on the cross sectional quantitative survey. Following the preliminary work, a cross sectional survey on UGA college male undergraduates was conducted, which included a variety of measures on factors known to be related to
sexual violence perpetration. The survey included the previously-tested vignettes, along with Likert-style questions formed from themes developed through the preliminary work. This study proposed that group membership, alcohol use, rape myth acceptance, hypermasculinity, sex-related alcohol expectancies, and empathy level could predict
sexual violence acceptance, as measured through vignette responses, and previous sexually violent behavior. Results showed that males who scored higher on rape myth acceptance had higher
sexual violence acceptance. Males who were members of a fraternity or club sport scored higher risk on two of the four vignettes measuring
sexual violence acceptance, though there were differences between the groups regarding which vignettes yielded higher scores. Fraternity membership predicted previous
sexual violence behavior, while having no affiliation with a fraternity, club sport or other registered student organization predicted the lowest likelihood of having engaged in
sexual violence. Participants who scored higher risk on alcohol use, rape myth acceptance, hypermasculinity and personal sex-related alcohol expectancies were more likely to have committed
sexual violence compared with those who scored lower on those measures. Those who committed
sexual violence scored higher risk on
sexual violence acceptance for two of the four vignettes when compared with those who did not commit
sexual violence. Implications for this study are that results may assist in the development of primary prevention programs targeting college men at high-risk for committing
sexual violence, and shifting the focus away from survivor behavior that prevents being assaulted while placing the responsibility for change on preventing and reforming perpetrator behavior.

▼ This study aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the lived experiences of adolescents with regard to
sexual harassment within the school environment. It was considered in the light of actual cases reported on the Cape Flats in the Western Cape where adolescent girls sought counselling after being sexually harassed over a period of time, and were eventually sexually assaulted on their school grounds, by their peers. A qualitative methodological approach was utilised, and the sample was made up of nine adolescent females and one adolescent male between the ages of 15 and 17 years, who were asked to participate on a voluntary basis. Their selection followed purposive sampling at two selected high schools on the Cape Flats in the Western Cape. The research instrument used was an unstructured interview with an open-ended question to allow the participant to share openly and freely. Sound ethical considerations were taken into account throughout the study. Phenomenology was used as a theoretical framework and the data was analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The four key themes, or essence of the adolescents’ lived experiences, that emerged for the study were: (1) boys don’t respect girls’ sexuality, (2) boys demonstrate power over girls, (3) girls who are sexually harassed at school are publicly humiliated, (4) reporting procedures at schools are inadequate. From the themes I concluded that for the girls, key principles relating to human rights within the South African Constitution were being violated; namely, the right to non-discrimination, the right to human dignity and the right to a safe school environment. Recommendations were made that address the role of the national and regional education departments as well as that of social workers.

▼ The present research analysed how the media, specifically newspaper articles, construct
sexual violence towards women, with the aim of investigating why cultural misconceptions about rape persist. Language use in the articles is examined using discursive psychology, and three constructions were closely analysed: the rapist, the rape, and the woman, each containing several themes and descriptive features, with a basis in historical rape myths. Findings suggested that these constructions are mainly used to manage accountability, maintain a narrow definition of rape, and attribute responsibility. The implications for wider society’s cultural conceptions are observed, and a secondary commentary on how these constructions have progressed since early second wave feminism is provided.

▼ This study examines male-based
sexual violence
prevention programs on college campuses. In an effort to combat the
widespread problem of
sexual violence against college women,
universities have implemented
sexual assault prevention programs.
While past programs have focused on risk-reduction strategies that
target women, new programs are beginning to focus on approaching
men to challenge hegemonic masculinity and gender social norms that
are conducive to
sexual violence. Thus far, the methods of these
programs have not been studied in detail. This study uses
interviews, observation, and document analysis to analyze the
methods and messages of male-based
sexual violence prevention
programs at six universities in the United States. The research
describes and analyzes the origins, goals, structures, strategies,
success, and challenges of these programs. Their strengths and
limitations are discussed, and suggestions and considerations for
the programs are provided. As male-based
violence prevention
programs become more popular on college campuses, this research
offers a deeper understanding of these programs that may inform and
improve the effort to combat
violence against college
women.

▼ The prevalence of
sexual violence (SV) within the college population is alarmingly high. Experiences of SV may lead to numerous negative academic, physical, and psychological consequences. Recent calls to action emphasize the importance that universities address this serious public health concern. The overall purpose of this dissertation is to explore the role of student health centers (SHCs) in addressing campus SV. This dissertation has three main aims: (1) to examine current research literature on SV in the college undergraduate student population with a specific focus on student disclosure and campus resources and services, (2) to describe SV practices of SHCs located on university campuses in the state of Florida, and (3) to explore students’ perspectives of SHCs’ role in addressing campus SV. Aim 1 was addressed through a systematic review of the literature. Then, Aims 2 and 3 were addressed by conducting a two-phase study with multiple study designs. To address aim 1, studies were identified through systematic searches of PubMed, CINAHL, and PsycInfo of articles published between January 2010 and February 2015. After screening, 16 articles were included in this review. Results demonstrated a lack of consistency in how SV was referred to and measured. Research on college student SV disclosure was found to have been primarily conducted in six areas: (1) informal disclosure, (2) formal disclosure, (3) friends’ perceptions of disclosure, (4) process/effects of disclosure on the survivor, (5) barriers to disclosure, and (6) social support in the disclosure process. Research related to campus SV resources and services primarily focused on: (1) students’ knowledge, (2) students’ utilization, and (3) students’ suggestions. To address aim 2, a cross-sectional, observational study design was used. Institutional level data was collected from 33 SHCs from November 2015 through January 2016. Data was collected from SHC representatives through use of a telephone administered survey. The majority of SHCs screen for SV. Not all use effective screening strategies. Further, the majority of screening questions used are not specific to SV, but rather focus on general abuse and/or intimate partner
violence (IPV). Finally, to address aim 3, a qualitative, descriptive research design was used. Data were collected from thirty-seven female undergraduate students in March 2016. Four focus groups were conducted and analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. Three themes emerged: (1) supports and barriers to using SHCs for SV; (2) SHCs’ responsibility to educate students about SV; and (3) SHCs’ responsibility to use campus-wide, comprehensive SV efforts. This dissertation follows the three manuscript option. Chapter One provides an overview of the issue of campus SV and introduces this dissertation’s purpose, aims, and methodology. Chapters Two through Four consist of publication-ready manuscripts presenting the results for Aims 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Finally, Chapter Five presents a summary, introduces additional findings, and…

▼ The current study assessed a classification of
sexual offenders from combinations of crime scene evidence and case data. It sought to contribute a unique perspective to the
sexual offender typology literature by utilizing data obtained from the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP) database—a nationally populated violent crime database maintained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Use of ViCAP data allowed for information to be obtained about
sexual offenders who were not necessarily in mental health treatment programs and/or criminal custody, thereby enabling the examination of offenders that may not have been investigated in previous research. The present study also sought to expand upon previous typology literature by focusing on offender crime scene behaviors rather than offender motive since law enforcement often needs to begin their approach to a case investigation and offender identification and apprehension based on what is viewed at a crime scene. Data collected from the ViCAP database were analyzed to explore the heterogeneity of 4,476 sexually violent adult males who offended against adult females. The following domains were chosen as initial variables of interest: 1) use of potentially deadly force, 2) offender approach (i.e., blitz, con, and surprise), 3) use of restraints, 4) infliction of unusual assault/trauma, 5) type of
sexual activity, 6) major trauma location, and 7) use of a weapon. After considering univariate entropy results for the initial variables, use of restraints, certain types of
sexual activity, and use of a weapon were eliminated from the analyses based on low scores. Seven offender groups were identified through use of latent class analysis (LCA) on the remaining variables. Results indicated that offender approach is an important differentiating variable for offenders, particularly among those who did not exhibit sadistic offense behaviors. In addition, major trauma location was found to be important in differentiating between two groups of offenders who exhibited sadistic assault characteristics, with one sadistic group concentrating its trauma to
sexual regions of the body while the other displayed high probabilities of trauma infliction on all areas of the body. The current study expands upon previous typology research by analyzing sexually violent offenders who were not necessarily in mental health treatment programs or criminal custody based on their crime scene behaviors separate from offender motivation. It provides a framework which future research can use to examine combinations of objective crime scene behaviors, self-reported offender motivations and fantasies, and offender psychopathology and personality in order to present a comprehensive approach that is useful to both law enforcement and mental health professionals.

▼ Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
This study’s aims were to investigate and address the needs, experiences and concerns of women survivors of sexual assault when they choose to take legal action in relation to sexual violence. Stage 1 of this study conducted in-depth interviews with nine survivors who had attended court in relation to sexual assault between 2010-2012. Analysis of in-depth interviews found that each of the participants reported being re-traumatised by the legal system, as well as having experienced various systemic difficulties and obstacles during the legal process, including lack of adequate support, information and court preparation, societal victim-blaming myths and attitudes and frequent legal delays. Stage 2 of this research involved conducting focus groups with 21 key stakeholders working with survivors of sexual assault. Thematic analysis of focus groups found that stakeholder concerns mirrored the difficulties survivors experienced. Stakeholder concerns included the issue of re-traumatisation of survivors by the legal process, as well as the issue of legal delays and survivor powerlessness, and frustrations regarding the societal myths and attitudes that continue to judge and blame those who experience sexual violence. Interview and focus group findings of the current study are consistent with Australian and international research, which has found that survivors who choose to take legal action after sexual assault are typically re-traumatised, disempowered and insufficiently informed, prepared and supported as they navigate the legal journey. The “Women of Courage” program was developed in response to the findings of the in-depth interviews and focus groups conducted in Stages 1 and 2 of this study. The Third Stage of this study entailed the development, facilitation and evaluation of a pilot group court preparation and support intervention, “Women of Courage,” for women in the process of taking legal action in response to sexual violence. The eight-week group program aimed to address and ameliorate the issue of survivor re-traumatisation and powerlessness, offering a holistic approach to supporting participants during the legal journey. This was achieved through the provision of comprehensive psycho-education and information on all aspects of the legal process, as well as through the delivery of evidence-based resilience-enhancing skills and strategies including mindfulness training, distress tolerance and emotion regulation skills. This innovative, evidence-based pilot program was conducted at a Sexual Assault Service in regional New South Wales and offered a setting in which participants felt safe and supported and had the opportunity to learn relevant skills required for navigating the legal process. The program also offered longer-term social and emotional support to participants who identified themselves as experiencing social isolation and lack of emotional support. Long-term support included the provision of ongoing counselling with a one-on-one counsellor following…

▼ Using Nancy Fraser’s (2007a) tripartite model of justice as a theoretical backdrop, this thesis critically evaluates the United Nation’s (UN) International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), in relation to how this Tribunal has both secured and limited opportunities to ’do’ justice for
sexual violence (SV) victims. This thesis applies a gendered approach to Fraser’s model, and considers how justice has been secured by women, based on principles of recognition, redistribution and representation.
Using documentary methods, the thesis analyses ICTR cases concerning SV, to determine how this Tribunal has responded to SV committed against women and girls throughout the Rwandan genocide. This thesis demonstrates that, while the Tribunal has secured some level of justice for SV victims by successfully indicting, prosecuting and punishing some individuals responsible for SV, these crimes have been constructed and responded to in ad hoc and skewed ways. The analysis shows that crimes of SV, as well as its victims, are underrepresented in the ICTR. It also demonstrates that where SV has been addressed, the institutional culture and framework of this Tribunal has marginalised the voice of women, and allowed for discriminatory and insensitive court practices to permeate judicial proceedings. SV victims, who continue to struggle with redistributive injustices, have been negatively impacted by these ICTR practices

▼ This multi-stage mixed methods study was designed to assess the impact and experience
of sexual violence (SV) in a sample of Irish women with a history of rape/sexual
assault. A secondary aim was to explore the appropriateness of the trauma response
model as a means of contextualising and explaining women’s post-rape experiences.
Stage One involved a series of one-to-one interviews with a selection of stakeholders
(n=18) who were providing services to Irish victims of SV. Several important themes
were identified from the analysis of these data including: barriers to services, current
gaps in service provision; and the perceived impact of SV.
Stage Two comprised a detailed quantitative assessment of a sample of Irish women
with an experience of SV (n=65). Participants completed a battery of measures in order
to assess a number of key constructs/aspects of their life including: experience of
trauma symptoms, recent psychological distress; recent life stress; social support;
overall Quality of Life (QoL); and alcohol and drug use. A frequency distributionmatched
sample of women (COM group) without a history of SV (n=57) also completed
these measures (with the exception of the trauma symptoms measure). The average
length of time since the incident of SV was almost 13 years) (M=12 years, 9 months)
and approximately one third of the sample had also experienced SV under the age of 16.
More than eight women in every ten knew the perpetrator, to a greater or lesser degree.
The SV sample was characterised by significantly higher rates of recent psychological
distress and negative life events than their comparison group counterparts as well as
significantly worse QoL, and lower rates of social support. They also obtained
significantly higher scores on all scales of the trauma symptoms measure when
compared to the norm group. The relationship of the victim to the perpetrator emerged
as a significant factor in relation to current marital status, histoiy of a mental health
diagnosis and age at the time of the incident. Women who were older at the time of the
sexual assault were found to have significantly lower rates of QoL and were
experiencing more psychological distress than younger women. A number of significant
and interesting correlations were also found between various subscales of the measures.
Stage Three explored the impact and experience of SV in more detail by means of a
series of one-to-one interviews with a reduced sub-sample of women selected from
Stage Two (n=14). These qualitative data supplemented and amplified the findings from
the previous two stages of the study. A number of key superordinate themes and subthemes
were identified including: reactions to the experience of SV; impact of the
experience of SV; service utilisation; disclosure; recovery and healing; and experiences
of participation in the research.
The findings from this study have highlighted a number of important issues in the area
of SV in Ireland whilst also adding to the small, but growing pool of literature that is
beginning to question the…

▼ In this project, I examine the rhetorical patterns that silence or expose wartime
sexual assault in U.S. culture from World War II, the Vietnam War, and the contemporary War on Terror. Through rhetorical analysis of military rhetoric, film, journalism, and photography, I argue that institutional narratives deploy rape as a political trope by exploiting narratives of
sexual abuse in ways that promote war and inhibit justice for survivors. These narratives are patterned by a "melodramatic frame," which emphasizes feminine vulnerability and racialized villainy to construct a heroic national identity. By depicting
sexual violence as a crime committed by inherently deviant individuals rather than a byproduct of institutionalized patriarchal norms, the melodramatic frame privileges individualism over collectivity. I then juxtapose this institutional discourse with resistant voices found personal narratives, dissent, and advocacy efforts that counter the melodramatic frame. Not only do these narratives further critique melodrama by demonstrating its inadequacy in capturing the complexity of material experiences, but they also provide effective rhetorical models that invite us to see the cultural and systemic factors that exacerbate wartime
sexual violence. These resistant discourses demonstrate what I call a "healing heroism," which challenges melodramatic tendencies toward caricature and polarization. In doing so, they unsettle harmful gender and racial norms by reimagining notions of vulnerability, heroism, and villainy.

▼ This study is a cultural investigation into rape, with specific focus on the role of African men.
With more than 70 000 cases of rape and
sexual violence reported in a year in South Africa,
and estimations that this may reflect one ninth of the actual number only, South Africa has
been labelled the “rape capital” of the world. The study seeks to explain the root causes of
rape, its ontological make-up and possibilities for resolving the issue by identifying cultural
aspects, factors and manifestations that either justify or sanction rape.
Four concepts, namely, rape, masculinity, culture and rage, serve as the thematic lens for
identifying and interrogating cultural conditions through multidisciplinary and Africancentred
perspectives. The analyses contained in the study are based on a mapping process
involving comparing the data from a wide range of literature and also focus group interviews.
Highlighting the multi-layered complexities of rape as phenomena, the study then outlines
recommendations for transformative work in research, cultural institutions, communities,
families and men

▼ This study assesses the correlations of participation
in a prevention program, Men Creating Attitudes for Rape-free
Environments (Men CARE), and participants’ attitudes and behavior
toward
sexual violence. The t-tests were used to determine the
association, either by the intervention or the cohort, on attitudes
and behaviors between the groups, across student affiliation and
ethnicity. After the primary statistical analysis, it appeared that
the workshop was having an influence on participants’ attitudes
about and behavior toward rape. The result demonstrates that the
workshop is helpful in decreasing rape myth acceptance, increasing
knowledge of
sexual violence, increasing pro-social bystander
attitudes, and increasing bystander efficacy.

▼ Seksuaalirikosten uhrit kohtaavat seksuaalisen väkivallan lisäksi muutakin fyysistä väkivaltaa. Uhrin tutkimuksen osana tehdään fyysinen tutkimus, minkä tarkoituksena on, paitsi selvittää tarvitseeko uhri hoitoa, kerätä tietoa mahdollisista väkivallan merkeistä tulevaa oikeusprosessia varten.
Tässä tutkielmassa käytettiin materiaalina Helsingin yliopiston oikeuslääkäriasemalla tutkittujen seksuaalirikosten uhrien lääkärin lausunnoista kerättyjä tietoja vuosilta 1954, 1964, 1974, 1984, 1994, 2002 ja 2012. Tarkastelimme väkivallan merkkien määrää uhreissa, riskitekijöitä, jotka vaikuttavat siihen saako uhri väkivallan merkkejä tai tuleeko tämä kuristetuksi, ja kuinka raa’alta heihin kohdistunut väkivalta vaikutti. Ulkoisten vamman merkkien perusteella väkivallan raakuuden arviointia varten kehitimme Violence Severity Scoren (VSS), jonka käyttöä pilotoimme tässä tutkielmassa.
Yli puolilla uhreista oli todettavissa ei lainkaan tai hyvin vähän väkivallan merkkejä (VSS 0-5). Vakavaa väkivaltaa kohdanneiden osuus uhreista vaihteli vuosittain 1-15% välillä. Vamman merkeistä yleisin vammatyyppi oli mustelma, kaikkein harvinaisimpia olivat vakavammat merkit kuten murtumat. Yhteensä noin puolet vammojen merkeistä sijaitsi raajojen alueella ja neljäsosa taas erityisen vaarallisella alueella: päässä, kaulalla ja suussa. Aikuiset olivat suuremmassa riskissä saada väkivallan merkkejä ja joutua kuristetuksi kuin lapset. Tuntemattomien raiskaamat uhrit olivat suuremmassa riskissä joutua kuristetuksi kuin tuttujen raiskaamat.
Osuus uhreista, joilla oli todettavissa fyysisten väkivallan merkkejä, aluksi kasvoi ollen korkeimmillaan 1984 ja 1994. 2000-luvulla väkivallan merkkejä saaneiden osuus jälleen pieneni. VSS:n avulla tarkastellen näimme samanlaisen kehityksen väkivallan raakuudessa. Kun asiaa tarkasteli pelkillä aikuisilla uhreilla, nähtiin, että vuonna 1954 väkivallan raakuus per uhri on ollut korkeimmillaan ja tämän jälkeen laskenut koko ajan kohti nykypäivää, lukuun ottamatta vuotta 1984, joka erottui poikkeuksellisen väkivaltaisena.

▼ Research has indicated that as males become more sexually aroused they predict themselves as acting more sexually coercive. Additionally, males high in
sexual narcissism also report higher usage of
sexual coercion. The underlying mechanism of these relationships, however, is unclear. The current study proposed three models of
sexual coercion with cognitive decision-making mediating these relationships: an arousal-cognitive model, a narcissism-cognitive model, and an integrated model of
sexual arousal and
sexual narcissism. Heterosexual males (n = 154) completed a study of coercive behaviour both in states of
sexual arousal and non-arousal and responded to a measure of
sexual narcissism. The results suggest that
sexual arousal and
sexual narcissism indirectly affect
sexual coercion through misattribution of partner interest. Additionally,
sexual narcissism moderates the affect of
sexual arousal on
sexual coercion. This is consistent with the idea of
sexual coercion being a product of several factors including contextual, cognitive, and personality variables.

▼ Background:
Sexual violence is a serious public health and human rights problem with both short-and long-term consequence on women’s physical, mental,
sexual and reproductive health.
Objective: To assess the prevalence and determinants related to
sexual violence among house maids of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Methods: School based cross sectional study design was conducted among female housemaid students from January 27-march7, 2015 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A total of 473 sample sizes were considered. Multistage sampling techniques were employed. Data was collected using closed ended and open ended self-administered questionnaire. Five percent of the questionnaire was pretested. Data was entered through Epi-data version 3.1 and was analyzed through SPSS version 20. Measurements of central tendency like mean were presented. Odds Ratio and 95% Confidence Interval was calculated for each independent variable against the dependent variables.
Result: A total of 451 housemaid’s had participated with a response rate of 95.3%. The study has indicated that the prevalence of
sexual violence was 28.6%.Housemaid monthly income <300birr were three times [AOR=3.112(1.484, 6.523)] more likely to be sexually violated than those whose monthly income is >450birr. Housemaids whose employer drunk alcohol were 14 times [AOR=14.53(7.62, 27.703)] more likely to be sexually violated compared to those housemaids whose employer do not drink alcohol.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Sexual violence among housemaids is rampant. Low income of the housemaid and alcohol drinking by perpetrator was found to be a risk for
sexual violence. Empowering housemaids to develop self-confidence through education, and improving their ability to find employment and income, along with increasing public awareness of human rights issues is vital.

▼ Sexual violence at institutions of higher education has been a problem of concern for several decades. In April 2011, the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights issued the Dear Colleague Letter on
sexual violence. This document offered guidance and recommendations to schools on ways to educate about and respond to
sexual harassment including
sexual violence. Since its release there has been limited research on its impact and university response. The purpose of this study was to learn more about one institution's administrators' response to the Dear Colleague Letter on
sexual violence. A case study design was used to complete the study. The data sources were interviews with administrators, observations, and documents. The participants were five mid-level and higher university administrators. The emergent themes from the study are change, collaboration, support, and human and financial capital. This institution has had an encouraging response, but additional studies at more institutions are needed.

▼ According to Encyclopedia Dictionary on Roman Law, the word rape originally derived from the Latin verb "rapere", which means "to seize or take by force" (p.667-768). Rape can be defined as a crime in the criminal statutes of most countries and the criminalization of rape under international law (Abegunde, 2013). However, a search of the Statistics New Zealand website reveals that only nine percent of rapes are registered by police. The U.S Department of State has reported that China had 31,833 rapes in 2007 (Marquez, 2009). This is twice as were recorded in the 2005 statistics (15000) (Marquez, 2009). The crime of rape is an enormous criminal problem in China.

▼ Prior research has documented the role that revealing and concealing interpersonal
violence has on health outcomes for victims (e.g., Ullman, 2010). The present paper aims to add to the existing research by presenting a new model, The Revealing and Concealing Process Model for Interpersonal Trauma, to describe the process that occurs when victims reveal or conceal interpersonal
violence. The second stage of the model (i.e., reasons for revealing/concealing interpersonal
violence) was tested by: 1. Creating a measure to assess the reasons for revealing and concealing interpersonal
violence and 2. Identifying whether getting goals met for revealing/concealing is related to health outcomes for victims. The results suggest the need for a unique measure to assess the reasons for revealing and concealing interpersonal
violence and that getting goals met (especially for revealing) can be related to health outcomes for victims.

Crime de Violência Sexual: objeto jurídico e a tese unitária.

▼ O Código Penal brasileiro, de 1.940, adotou o sistema de independência absoluta entre os crimes de estupro e de atentado violento ao pudor. Esta autonomia causa amiúde situações de perplexidade e injustiça. Tal fenômeno decorre da insegurança histórica na identificação do verdadeiro objeto jurídico atingido pelos crimes de violência sexual. Ao longo dos tempos, são citados como bens tutelados pela norma penal a moral religiosa, os costumes, o pátrio poder, a virgindade física, a pureza moral, os interesses patrimoniais e sucessórios, a liberdade sexual, a liberdade de amar e a dignidade sexual. Mas nenhum destes objetos se acomoda com a realidade da vida, como demonstra o presente estudo. O bem atingido pela violência sexual é, na verdade, a dignidade da pessoa humana, cujo respeito é um dos fundamentos da República. Propõe-se, então, o reconhecimento de um tipo conceitual e conglobante. Trata-se de um tipo misto (mischgesetz) alternativo, detentor de um único núcleo, cuja execução (constrangimento) pode se dar de dois modos (mediante violência real ou psíquica). A prática de conjunção carnal forçada somada à de qualquer outro ato libidinoso imposto, no mesmo episódio, constitui crime único. Além de expungir do ordenamento jurídico as contradições e incongruências citadas, a solução proposta traz mais uma vantagem de considerável relevo: a vítima deixa de sofrer a chamada dupla vitimização, com a submissão ao aviltante exame pericial acerca da penetração vaginal, essencial para a caracterização do estupro, mas irrelevante para o tipo conceitual proposto
The Brazilian Penal Law (1.940) established a system of absolute independence between the stuprum crime and the violent attempt to the decency crime. The autonomy is the cause of some perplexity and injust situations. This mistake elapses from the historical insecurity about the true juridical object injured by the sexual violence crimes. Along the time, they are cited as the religious morale, the habits, the fathers legal authority, the physical virginity, the moral purity, the patrimonial and heritage rights, the sexual freedom, the freedom of loving and the sexual dignity. But none of these objects accommodates with life reality, as this study demonstrates. In fact, it injured the person s human dignity, one of the principal foundations of the Brazilian Republic. This study proposes the acceptance of a conceptual and global law. It is a mixed (mischgesetz) and alternative law, whit only one nucleus, wich execution (constraint) can be done in two ways (by real or psychic violence). The forced carnal conjunction practice summed to any other imposed libidinous act, at the same episode, constitutes a single crime. Besides delating the cited contradictions and incongruities, the proposed solution has considerable extra advantage: the victim does not suffer twice by being examinated to prove or not vaginal penetration, essential to characterise stuprum, however being an irrelevant information for the conceptual law proposed here

▼ The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with reporting incidents of
sexual violence after seventy-two hours at the
sexual assault service centre in Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal. This descriptive study was based on retrospective analysis of 534 medical records of victims of
sexual violence at the Newcastle hospital between 2005 and 2009. A data collection sheet was designed to extract information from three sources namely: the victims' hospital files, J88 forms and specific hospital forms that were completed for
sexual assault victims. The collected data were entered into and processed for analysis using EPI INFO statistical package. Frequencies, means and standard deviations were calculated for the data set. Test of significance was also done using the Chi-square test and presented using odds ratios with 95% CI and p-value of <0.05. The victims' age range was 2-81years (mean= 18.84, σ=13.25). Approximately 87% were female and 59.4% of the victims were aged 0-17 years. One in five victims (19.7%) was HIV positive, and most (74.4%) reported rape with vaginal penetration. Fifty-nine percent reported within 72 hours of being assaulted. The most common reason for delayed reporting (21.5%) was fear of the perpetrator. Most of the
sexual assaults were committed by male (96%) and single perpetrator (90%). Nearly a third (32.4%) of the
sexual violence occurred within intimate relationships and more than two-thirds (68%) knew the perpetrators. In all, 35% sustained injuries during the assault and a third (34.5%) reported the use of weapons during the assault. Nearly half of the victims (48.7%) were referred to hospital by their relatives who also accompanied them to the facility (42.1%). Of the 198 victims that were offered post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), 87% collected the full 28-day course.

▼ Sexual violence is ubiquitous throughout the Anglophone West and shows no sign of abating. Feminist analysis has long demonstrated that this is a problem grounded in gender relations, patterns of masculine socialisation, and patriarchal social organisation. However, this thesis proposes that the roots of the Anglophone West’s rape culture also extend far beyond matters of gender and sexuality, deep into the core of the dominant culture itself. Setting feminist theory in dialogue with wider socio-cultural analysis, the research explores the complex relationships between the prevailing ideologies, ethics, systems, structures and practices of the dominant culture and the Anglophone West’s high incidence of sexual violence. In so doing, it reveals that, contrary to popular misconceptions, rape is neither a ‘natural’ nor a ‘savage’ act but a highly ‘civilised’ one which expresses the foundational philosophies of Anglophone Western culture in a sexualised, gendered form. Specifically, it shows that sexual objectification, which presents women as little more than ‘rapable bodies’, is part of a far wider pattern of normalised objectification developing from the Anglophone West’s underlying belief that some lives are worth less than others and so may be legitimately used and ‘consumed’ for personal gain. Expanding this to include analysis of men who commit sexual violence, it also establishes that perpetrators’ ‘rapist mentalities’, or the modes of thought and relation that enable and motivate rapists to commit rape, function as interpersonal, gendered expressions of the Anglophone West’s celebration of and reliance upon exploitation, conquest and coercive rule. Through these arguments, the thesis ultimately demonstrates that rape is not only an act of gender violence but also an inevitable manifestation of the dominant culture of the Anglophone West at large which can be fully addressed and challenged only by expanding analytical frameworks to include broad socio-cultural critiques and diverse social justice activism. In taking this position, the thesis expands understanding of rape beyond the limits of existing research and raises significant issues for both future scholarship and the ongoing struggle against sexual violence.

▼ After a brutal and widely publicized gang rape in December 2012, women?s safety in public spaces has been a significant site of debate and discourse about Delhi as a city and India as a country. My Master?s thesis focuses on women?s negotiations of public spaces in Delhi, India. I explore how women in general?and activists in particular?shift Delhi?s public culture, in order to intervene in dominant discourses on women?s agency in India?s capital as well as the dismissive, alienating narratives of the city as hopelessly violent. Jagori, a Delhi-based women?s rights organization, sponsors ?The Safe Delhi Campaign? to address the constraints on and challenges of women?s Delhi street experience with a focus on urban design, public transport, and raising public awareness. My project brings a Performance Studies perspective to Jagori?s goals, paying close attention to my interlocutors? (university-aged female residents and Jagori activists) voices, bodies, and tactics. Fear and the anticipation of
violence shapes when, where, and how female residents move through Delhi: the spatial and temporal safe, cautionary, and forbidden zones, bridged by acceptable forms of transportation, expose how fear fractures the map. I argue that my interlocutors are negotiating their own comfort against social expectations and the potential for
violence in public. Female embodiment in rape cultures is marked by the anticipation of
violence, where
sexual assault indicates a failure to adhere to the preventative regime. That fearful embodiment manifests in the everyday practices of managing the dominant male street culture in Delhi. I explore protests post-Dec-12 as my interlocutors experienced them, arguing that some protests disrupt the normative Delhi public culture, creating a temporary atmosphere in which women can more freely move and express themselves, where that fear fades or disappears. Hopeful and future-oriented protests call for the women?s full access to public spaces without fear. From the everyday self-policing, restrictive tactics of female university students to activists occupying the streets in attention-grabbing protests, how Delhi?s women are responding to the threat of
violence exposes the everyday lived reality, juxtaposed contradictions, and enduring potential of the capital city.

▼ This dissertation argues that the current approach to victim impact statements in New
Zealand serves victims poorly. The primary purpose of victim impact statements is to
provide information about harm, in order to assist the sentencing judge to assess the
seriousness of the offending. This limits the extent to which victim impact statements can
meet victims’ needs and protect their interests. This dissertation proposes a new role for
victim impact statements (with a focus on their use in
sexual violence cases). It argues
that the purpose of victim impact statements should be to meet victims’ needs for
recognition, acknowledgement and assistance with recovery, and to protect victims’
interests in reparation and prevention of further harm from the offender and from the
sentence imposed on the offender. Meeting these needs and protecting these interests is
necessary to provide justice for victims. Finally, this dissertation argues that victim
impact statements should not be used to assess the seriousness of the offending.

▼ Women’s magazines have a role in constructing and defining what it means to be a woman. Deciphering messages in mediums specifically designed for women is therefore key to understanding what women may be learning about femininity. This thesis examines the depiction of women in women’s magazines, focussing on sexualisation and the portrayal of traditional gender roles. Traditional gender stereotypes and the
sexual objectification of women are key mechanisms contributing to the subordinate position of women in society. This thesis argues that alongside their contributions to gender inequality, such depictions can also reinforce ideas that sustain rape culture with the latter referring to a climate where
sexual violence is normalised and trivialised. By conducting a longitudinal content analysis (1975 –2015) of cover pages from New Zealand women’s magazines, this thesis investigates whether there are any changes in the level of sexualisation and depiction of traditional gender roles across prominent women’s magazines. The findings of this thesis indicate that overall there is a low level of sexualisation present in cover page images from women’s magazines, and significant differences exist both between publications as well as across the four decades of analysis. The depiction of traditional gender roles is consistent across the time period studied, and when such gender stereotypes are present they remove agency from women reducing them to ‘decorative’ objects within images. Messages suggesting women should be sexualised and decorative may reinforce ideas central to gender inequality, rape culture, and
sexual violence against women. The implications of this thesis suggest that women’s magazines may not be a safe space for readers to celebrate their gender – rather, such publications may influence ideas that facilitate gender inequality.

▼ This study proposes the use of discursive psychology as a framework for studying how
sexual violence is constructed in media discourse, more specifically newspaper articles. The analysis reveals three main components of these constructions: the rapist, the victim and the situation. The constructions of these components deal predominantly with distancing rape, and the allocation and mitigation of responsibility to the parties involved. Finally, the paper discusses the implications of this research, how and why problematic constructions are perpetuated, and what further research needs to be done.

▼ Background: Several school based studies indicated that female students are vulnerable to
sexual violence in Ethiopia. In some parts of the country,
sexual violence among female students
reached up to 21.2%. However, there is still a knowledge gap about the magnitude of
sexual
violence among female night school students in Ethiopia.
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess level of
sexual violence and its consequence
among night time school students in Hawassa town.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the prevalence of
sexual violence
among female night school students in Hawassa town involving 520 randomly selected students
from 11 junior primary school and three high schools from December 2010 to Feb 2011.
Results: The finding of this study indicated that 14% of the students were raped at list once in
their life time while 26.6% faced an attempted rape. Most of the students 83% reported to have
faced
sexual harassment in their lifetime. The odd of experiencing lifetime rape were higher
among female students who drink alcohol, had more than two
sexual partners and who were
raised in rural areas. Among the victims of completed lifetime rape, n= 24(33.3%) had
experienced unwanted pregnancy, n=25 (34.7%) reported injury around the genitalia, n=8
(11.1%) had reported unusual vaginal discharge, n=1(1.4%) experienced swelling around the
genitalia and n=12 (16.7%) had abortion. psychological outcomes like unhappiness, suicidal
ideation and suicidal attempt were reported by 45.8%, 8.3% and 11.1% of the rape victims;
respectively.
Conclusion: Female night school students are highly vulnerable to unwanted pregnancy,
sexually transmitted infections including HIV due to
sexual violence. The problem is high
among female students which are extending beyond self harm to other parts of the public.
Appropriate intervention shall be in place by participating every concerned party including
parents, teachers and other community members to halt the practice especially among night
school female students.

▼ Sexual abuse of children is one of the most brutal forms of
violence against children, because the risks are real. Some researches indicate that it is a common place and a serious problem among female children who are living and working on the street. However, this atrocious problem was explored with other issues like socio-economic conditions of female street children with little emphasis of identifying forms, causes and consequences in detail way. The main research questions addressed in this study were: What are the causes/risk factors associated with it? What are the consequences of
sexual abuse among female street children? In order to answer these questions, qualitative data collection method pertaining to different objectives of the study such as in-depth interview with 17 female street children, focus group discussion and key informant interviews were used. The study revealed that female children drifted away from home and school to street way of life was due to interrelated and complex problems. They engaged in doing different activities on the street that make them vulnerable and victims of problems including various forms of
sexual abuse by diverse categories of people. Rape, prostitution, unwanted kissing, breast fondling and anal sex were reported as forms of
sexual abuse among female street children. In this study, female street children existences on the street and gender socialization were prominent issues that have emerged as the causes of
sexual abuse. As a consequence of their involvement on street life which in turn makes them available for easy prey by different abusers, they were victims of various forms of
sexual abuse. Besides, due to gender socialization pattern in patriarchal society that creates boys/men to be active, strong, aggressive and dominant against women and children are found as a cause for various forms of
sexual abuse. Poverty, luck of support and protection, migration and trafficking, being drug and alcohol addicted, HIV/AIDS epidemic etc. were also explored. The findings further reveal that
sexual abuses of female street children have a long lasting damaging effect on children’s life in terms of physical and mental health. Female street children face short term and long lasting psychological consequences. Moreover, physical and verbal abuses are reported in this study as part and parcel of the problem of various forms of
sexual abuse among female street children.

▼ Background: Risk assessment of sexual violence involves evidence based evaluation of the risks posed by sexual offenders. It informs risk management; the provision of treatment that reduces the risk of future sexual violence. Previous research has focused on assessment of the predictive accuracy of different risk assessment tools, as well as the identification of risk factors that are associated with recidivism. In contrast, the clinical practice of risk assessment is a research area that has been neglected. The aim of this thesis was to explore the practice of risk assessment in a specialist sex offender liaison service (SOLS). Particular attention was paid to the structured professional judgement method of risk assessment. Method: A systematic review of the literature identified psychological factors associated with sexual recidivism in adult male offenders. Study 1 employed a cohort quantitative design and aimed to ascertain whether risk judgements made by the SOLS were predicted by factors that were identified by the systematic review (and previously existing meta-analyses) as being evidence based. Ordinal logistic regression and linear regression analyses (N = 96) were used to investigate the hypothesised predictive associations between variables. Study 2 utilised a qualitative framework analysis (N = 31) and aimed to explore the views of users of SOLS risk assessments with respect to their practical utility. Results: The systematic review suggested that psychopathy and sexual deviance were supported as risk factors for sexual recidivism. Inconsistent results were found with respect to denial. Study 1 found that psychopathy, denial, and sexual preoccupation were significantly associated with risk judgement scores made by the SOLS, while sexual deviance, and problems with intimate relationships, were not. The best explanatory model accounted for only 40 per cent of the variance in risk judgement score. Study 2 revealed five major themes: informing risk management; confirming what was known and giving weight; understanding personality; treatment; and the usefulness and limitations of risk assessment.

▼ Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and intimate partner violence (IPV) are both crimes with high prevalence rates which frequently have females as their victims. Survivors of each are frequently found in psychotherapy, yet to date few studies have examined the interaction between each form of gender violence. The present study looked at several ways in which CSA and IPV interact, including assessing prevalence rates of CSA among female IPV survivors, examining somatic difficulties found among female CSA survivors who are also survivors of IPV vs. female non-CSA IPV survivor controls, and by exploring body image and sexual difficulties found among female CSA survivors who are also survivors of IPV vs. female non-CSA IPV survivor controls. Participants were a sample of 140 women with a history of domestic violence recruited from a variety of settings including community mental health facilities and correctional facilities.
Results showed that all three forms of childhood maltreatment studied (CSA, childhood physical abuse (CPA), and childhood witnessing of IPV) were elevated among survivors of IPV; rates of CSA were 51.4% within our sample of female survivors of IPV, rates of CPA were 52.1%, and rates of childhood witnessing of IPV were 67.1% within the same sample. Among various somatic complaints studied (sleep difficulties, depression, eating difficulties, and weight problems), female CSA survivors of IPV evidenced higher rates of childhood sleep difficulties, childhood and adulthood depression, and adulthood eating difficulties than did female non-CSA IPV survivor controls. While participants overall evidenced high rates of problems with body image and sexuality, there were no significant differences between female CSA survivors of IPV and female non-CSA IPV survivor controls within this study. Possible reasons underlying the latter negative findings were discussed. Both groups showed higher rates of body image and sexual dysfunction than would be predicted for normative participants, though given the absence of a normal control group in the present study it is difficult to discern how much higher these rates might be.
