1. Schamp, Leanne. An exploratory study of experiences of Christian therapists working with conservative Christian women experiencing intimate partner violence.
▼ This dissertation presents research that investigated the experiences and perceptions of Christian therapists who work with conservative Christian women who experienced intimate partner violence (IPV). Despite the widespread occurrence of IPV, therapists continue to face challenges in areas of training and supervision in working with this type of trauma. In addition to the factors involved in working with IPV, unique and complex cultural factors complicate the process of working with conservative Christian women in IPV. Studies related to the interface of IPV, religion, and the impact on therapists working with this population are limited. No literature was found concerning Christian therapists' experiences and perceptions when working with this population. To address this gap in the literature, this investigation incorporated a grounded theory design to explore and describe the experiences of Christian therapists as they worked with conservative Christian women in IPV. Five categories emerged from interviews conducted with six female Christian therapists over a nine month period of time. These categories were having a calling, therapist self, treating the women, encountering systems, and therapist understanding. Participants suggested their work with conservative Christian women in IPV was vocational as well as professional, based on personal transformation and experiences with God. Their experiences and perceptions of God resulted in the belief that IPV was incongruent with Christian spirituality. This informed how they provided clinical treatment to their clients, as well as how they encountered religious and secular communities regarding the issue of IPV. The process of working with conservative Christian women in IPV was a multifaceted, complex, and fluid process that included interaction of all the categories and properties as participants functioned in the calling that was central to their work with IPV.

2. Harding, Hilary G. Subgroup differences among female dating intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators: a typological approach.
▼ Previous research suggests that male intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators can be differentiated into subgroups on the basis of personality characteristics, severity of violence perpetrated, and the generality of violent behaviors. Better understanding of variation among partner violent individuals may lead to more effective assessment, treatment, and prevention of violence. Women's perpetration of IPV is vastly understudied relative to men's perpetration, and very limited research has examined whether the dimensions that differentiate abusive men are also useful in describing abusive women. The present study used a sample of young adult women who endorsed perpetration of dating IPV. A model-based cluster analysis was carried out on scores of antisocial and borderline personality characteristics, violence severity, and violence generality to identify subgroups of female IPV perpetrators. Results suggest that female perpetrators are a heterogeneous group and may meaningfully differ on these characteristics as well as developmental experiences and proximal correlates of violence.

3. 周偉蓮.; Chau, Wai-lin, Dorothy. Routine screening of intimate partner violence in the accident & emergency department of Hong Kong.
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a worldwide public health problem that causes a devastating effect on the survivors and their families, society and health care services. World Health Organization (2004) conducted multi-country study which shows the prevalence of female who were the survivors of IPV among the world ranged from 15% to 71%. Smith and Farole (2009) reflected that about 86% IPV was committed against women by men. Lau (2008) found the male to female ratio of IPV in Hong Kong was 1 to 7. In order to reduce IPV, the first step is screening (Leppa?koski, Astedt-Kurki, & Paavilainen, 2011). Self-disclosure of IPV is rare and unlikely (Todahl & Walters, 2011; Phelan, 2007; Schimanski & Hedgecock, 2009; Stith et al., 2004). Most of the survivors of IPV were not easily identified by nurses and doctors (Leppa?koski, Astedt-Kurki, & Paavilainen, 2011). Human, social, and economic cost of IPV is high. Early IPV screening is important. Early detection of IPV can help the survivors of IPV to have early intervention and prevention of future episodes (Perciaccante, Carey, & Dodson, 2010). Campbell (2002) also stated that routine screening maybe the most effective way to identify IPV. Mortality and morbidity can be reducing and it does more good than harm (Schimanski & Hedgecock, 2009). Lau (2008) stated that Emergency Department (ED) was an ideal place to study IPV in Hong Kong as police, primary care, social workers referred most IPV survivors to ED for further management. However, there is no routine screening of IPV in Hong Kong ED. The objectives of the dissertation are to search the literatures of screening of female IPV in ED and then conduct a quality assessment from these chosen literatures to synthesis the findings. The transferability and feasibility of the findings of the selected is assessed. The last objective is to develop an evidence based guideline, implementation and evaluation plan for application of routine IPV screening in Hong Kong ED.

4. Nwegbu, Somawina Chiazo. Culture and Contexts of Intimate Partner Violence in Nigeria: The Role of Child Marriage, and Implications for Public Health and Population Growth.
▼ Intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) and early marriage of female children are significant public health challenges in Nigeria. Previous research has shown a strong association between the two. Furthermore, both issues have severe implications for socioeconomic progress and present barriers to the realization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Few studies have examined child marriage as a form of IPVAW. Community and wider societal norms regarding IPVAW are known to influence women's lifetime experience of IPVAW in Nigeria. The channels whereby this influence occurs are yet to be completely identified and examined in their entirety. The purpose of this study was twofold: first, to undertake a comprehensive exploration of the processes involved in risk transmission of IPVAW to individual women in Nigerian society, through the testing of a public health model of health behavior; and second, to shed light on the discrepancy between self-reported rates of IPVAW and age at first marriage, and their associations with reproductive health intentions and behavior among Nigerian women. Using data from the 2013 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (DHS), this study comprehensively examined the ways in which community and societal contexts of IPVAW are transmitted to women embedded in such contexts. This study also investigated child marriage as a form of IPVAW, specifically with regard to the predictive power of age at first marriage with regard to women's reproductive intentions/behavior. Results indicate that gender-based imbalances in power distribution play a pivotal role in risk transmission of IPVAW to women in committed relationships. In particular, excessive partner control appears to be the strongest determinant of women's lifetime experience of IPVAW. This study also provides evidence that both childhood witnessing of IPVAW and religion are pivotal elements in the prediction of women's lifetime IPVAW risk. Women's age at first marriage is positively, though weakly, correlated with their lifetime experience of IPVAW. Furthermore, while self-reported experience of IPVAW is correlated with women's reproductive intentions and behavior, age at first marriage is much more strongly correlated with women's reproductive intentions and behavior. These findings suggest that women's age at first marriage might be a more sensitive and objective proxy indicator of their experience of IPVAW than their self-reported experience of IPVAW. Efforts to prevent IPVAW in Nigeria should address sources of power imbalances in relationships among vulnerable groups. Additionally, interventionists should harness the influence and reach of faith-based organizations in detection and primary prevention of IPVAW. IPVAW prevention interventions that target children early in the life cycle could also help in the primary prevention of IPVAW by changing societal norms over a generation. Further research on male partner engagement/involvement, as a means to preventing IPVAW in Nigeria, is also warranted. Furthermore, the potential… Advisors/Committee Members: Flay, Brian (advisor), Bovbjerg, Marit (committee member).

5. Cavanagh, Saara. Investigating the Relationship Between Approval and Experiences of Intimate Partner Aggression in Heterosexual Relationships.
▼ This study explored the relationship between participants' approval of intimate partner aggression (IPA) and their experiences of IPA in heterosexual relationships. Male (n = 216) and female (n = 299) university students completed an online questionnaire that consisted of the Conflict Tactic Scale-2, the Controlling Behaviours Survey-revised, and the Beliefs about Relationship Aggression Scale. Bivariate analyses showed the majority of aggressive and controlling behaviours were perpetrated and experienced at similar rates between men and women. ANOVA found an interaction effect where both male and female participants held greater approval of female-to-male aggression, compared to male-to-female aggression, when provoked by physical, sexual, or psychological aggression, or infidelity. An interaction between participants' gender and the aggressors' gender in the vignettes showed men were significantly more approving of female aggression than women. ANOVA also demonstrated a main effect of perpetration status (aggressive/non-aggressive), where aggressive students approved of IPA more than non-aggressive students, regardless of the participant's or the aggressor's gender. These findings show that participants, especially male participants, hold chivalrous beliefs about IPA in heterosexual relationships. Although this chivalrous pattern also held for aggressive participants, aggressive men and women both displayed significantly higher approval of aggression by both male and female perpetrators than non-aggressive controls. Therefore, this study found perpetrators of IPA not only approve of aggression by their own gender significantly more than non-aggressors, but also tolerate aggression by the opposite gender more readily. The need for treatment to address beliefs that approve of IPA by both partners in heterosexual relationships, rather than gender specific beliefs, is discussed alongside other implications for practice and policy.

6. Parker, Brittany Elizabeth. Batterer Intervention Programs in Nova Scotia: A Qualitative Examination of Offender Experiences.
▼ The present study examined the experiences of men court-mandated to one of two batterer intervention programs in Nova Scotia. Eight men participated in 45 minute—1 hour-long semi-structured interviews and spoke to a number of themes including their likes and dislikes of the program, what tools they had learned, and how beneficial they found the intervention program. In addition, two program facilitators were interviewed and provided insight into the theoretical basis of the programs as well as their experiences with the program. The narratives provided by participants indicated that both intervention programs provided offenders with a safe space to discuss intimate and uncomfortable details of their lives. In addition, both programs provided offenders with valuable tools for deescalating potentially volatile situations. Future research should focus on offenders who fail to attend sessions as well as the implications of intimate partner violence on the children of offenders.

7. Jones, Ryan. Investigating the Relationship between Approval, and Experiences of Physical Violence and Controlling Behaviours in Heterosexual Intimate Relationships.
▼ Popular theory understands intimate partner violence (IPV) as gendered, and stresses the integral role of a patriarchal society and approval of male to female aggression in the aetiology of men's IPV to women. This thesis set out to explore this hypothesis using a gender inclusive methodology, and examines the relationship between participants' approval of men's and women's use of controlling behaviours and physical violence in heterosexual intimate relationships. Undergraduate university students (N = 515) completed an online questionnaire about their use and experience of aggression and controlling behaviours, and their beliefs about dating violence. Bivariate analyses found that conflict tactics and controlling behaviours were perpetrated and experienced at equal rates by the sexes. ANOVA found that male and female participants approved of female to male violence significantly more than male to female violence when the aggressor was provoked via infidelity or physical violence, indicating a collective chivalrous belief pattern. Violent students also approved of male and female violence significantly more than non-violent students. Applying Johnson's (1999) typological approach, latent profile analysis found that 77.7% of violent relationships could be classed as Situational Couple Violence (SCV), 10.4% as Coercive Controlling Violence (CCV), 2.1% as Violent Resistant (VR), and 9.8% as Mutual Violent Control (MVC). Bivariate analysis revealed a greater frequency of women than men in the SCV group (n = 92, 61%) with a small effect; no other significant differences were found between the groups. ANOVA also found that the typology groups approved of female to male violence significantly more than male to female violence with CCV men endorsing the highest approval of male and female violence. Further research is required to determine why this group hold high approval in general compared to other groups. The need for interventions to address the approval of a person's own violence and approval of their partner's violence is discussed in addition to implications for theory, practice, and policy.

8. Bruder, Melissa. Factors Influencing Family Medicine Residents' Screening for Intimate Partner Violence .
▼ Intimate partner violence among adolescents is a serious and widespread problem. It is apparent that victims of intimate partner violence experience physical and psychological consequences. These adverse health effects can result in adolescents seeking care from healthcare professionals. However, intimate partner violence victims do not always receive the care and response they need. Because adolescents are reporting that not all healthcare professionals are screening for intimate partner violence, one must come to understand the factors that are hindering this occurrence. Although previous research has provided a foundation for understanding factors that influence intimate partner violence screening, researchers have not specifically examined factors related to family medicine residents' screening adolescent patients. The present study examined responses from 118 family medicine residents across the United States. Data were collected through an online survey and were analyzed using a multiple regression, a repeated measures ANOVA, and a one-way ANOVA. The multiple regression analysis revealed that together, year in residency, previous identification of victims of intimate partner violence, and self-efficacy significantly predicted intimate partner violence screening among adolescent patients. The repeated measures ANOVA had a statistically significant interaction effect for patient's gender and presenting medical concern on screening adolescent patients for intimate partner violence. The one-way ANOVA revealed that the frequency of family medicine residents' screening adolescent patients for intimate partner violence did not significantly differ among the regional locations of residency programs in the United States.

9. Howard-tripp, Alyssa Marie. A Situational Analysis of Intimate Partner Violence.
▼ Explanations of the causes of intimate partner violence draw primarily from distal and psychological factors. Yet there is a substantial literature about general violence focused on how proximal factors, specifically characteristics of a situation, influence crime. This study utilizes life event calendar data collected through interviews with male offenders in a Midwestern prison. These data include detailed information about violent incidents as well as incidents at risk for violence that ultimately were not violent. My examination of the situational characteristics of these incidents proceeds in two stages. First, I conduct binary logistic regression analyses of violence and, given violence, injury. Results show that incidents where the female partner uses drugs and incidents that occur away from home are both significantly associated with increased odds of violence. No situational factors, however, are found to be significantly associated with the odds of injury. Second, I conduct a multinomial logistic regression analysis of who is violent in an incident. These results show that the female partner's substance use is significantly associated with an increase in the relative risk of the female partner, the male partner, and both partners being violent, as opposed to avoiding violence. However, the multinomial model also shows that an incident occurring outside the home is significantly associated with only the male partner being violent. Location is not significantly associated with the woman being violent or both the man and woman being violent, as compared to avoided violence. Overall, these results indicate that situational factors are associated with the odds that an incident becomes violent, but not whether there is an injury. These associations can differ, however, based on which partner is violent.

11. Sepper, Rebecca. Ending Intimate Partner Violence: Preventative versus Restorative Interventions - Are We Waiting Too Long?.
This qualitative study aimed to explore the connection between experiences of childhood family violence and the perpetration of intimate partner violence. Rooted in an interpretivist methodology, the perceptions and experiences of six male participants were explored via individual interviews. The participants identified having experienced/witnessed family violence. They too stated perpetuating intimate partner violence. The participants were asked questions exploring how they perceived their childhood experiences and/or exposure to family violence to have and continue to impact them into adulthood. Based on the stories of these participants, four major themes were identified; however, ultimately, the importance of adequate and appropriate responses to the external manifestations of the impacts of family violence was emphasized. The discussion urges that current restorative responses to intimate partner violence be evaluated for ones that are preventative in nature, as well as suggested based on the specific needs of each individual.

12. Quintana, Shannon M. Parental and Cultural Influences on Hispanic College Women's Verbal Intimate Partner Violence Victimization: An Examination of Within-Group Differences.
▼ Prior research has shown that college women in the United States are experiencing significantly high rates of verbal intimate partner violence (IPV); estimates indicate that approximately 20-30% of college women experience verbal IPV victimization (e.g., Hines, 2007; Muñoz-Rivas, Graña, O'Leary, & González, 2009). Verbal IPV is associated with physical consequences, such as chronic pain and migraine headaches, and psychological implications, including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and substance use (Coker et al., 2002). However, few studies have examined verbal IPV in college populations, and none have focused on Hispanic college women who are members of the largest minority population on college campuses today (Pew Research Center, 2013), and experience higher rates of IPV victimization (Ingram, 2007). The current dissertation sought to address these gaps by examining the influence of familial conflict strategies on Hispanic college women's verbal IPV victimization. Further, within group differences were explored, with specific attention paid to the role of acculturation and gender role beliefs. A total of 906 from two Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI) in the southeastern (N=502) and southwestern (N=404) United States participated in the three part study. Study one examined the influence of parental conflict strategies on Hispanic women's verbal IPV victimization in current romantic relationships. Consistent with previous research, results indicated that parental use of verbal violence influenced verbal IPV victimization in the current romantic relationship. A unidirectional effect of paternal use of verbal aggression towards the participant on maternal verbal aggression towards the participant was also found. Study two examined the influence of parental conflict strategies, acculturation, and gender role beliefs on victimization. Acculturation and gender role beliefs were found to not have an influence on participants' verbal IPV victimization. Study three examined within-group differences using Study two's model. Differences were found between the southeastern and southwestern participants; gender role beliefs increased rates of verbal IPV victimization in the southeastern population. The current dissertation fills a gap in the literature on IPV experiences in Hispanic college populations, the importance of examining verbal IPV trends, and highlights importance differing cultural influences within populations traditionally viewed as homogenous. The implications for future research are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Dionne P. Stephens, Asia A. Eaton, Mary J. Levitt, Thomas R. Reio.

13. Miller, Rose Marie. We are only as blind as we want to be: institutional racism and domestic violence in the African American community.
▼ Domestic violence impacts persons from all walks of life, however, it has been estimated that African Americans experience a disproportionate amount of intimate partner violence (IPV) when compared to other racial groups. This study will differ by analyzing the effects of institutional racism experienced by African American females and examine whether IPV affects the African American community more than others. This study utilizes Robert Agnew???s General Strain Theory (GST) as a theoretical background to help highlight how strain can increase the risk for negative behavioral and emotional responses. This study uses a questionnaire from National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS). Results from that survey show that intimate partner violence affects both African Americans and Whites. Implications for future policies for culturally competent domestic violence programs are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Croisdale, Timothy Edward.

14. Van Niekerk, Taryn Jill. Respectability, morality and reputation: social representations of intimate partner violence against women in Cape Town.
▼ This study examined the social representations of intimate partner violence (IPV) that emerged amongst violent men, their social networks and within the media, and framed within social representations theory and feminist poststructuralism. In-depth individual interviews were conducted with 11 men, recruited from two men's programmes at an NGO, and seven focus group discussions were conducted with the men's social networks. A total of 11 3 reports on violence against women were collected from two newspapers that draw the largest readership in the Cape Town area. A thematic decomposition analysis - emphasising language, power and subjectivity - revealed how participants' representations of respectability, morality, and reputation served to maintain patriarchy, and make violence permissible. The findings also shed light on the polarity of human thought, demonstrating how 'non-valid' victims of IPV are blamed and 'othered' for the violence perpetrated against them; yet in contrast, men who perpetrate violence are protected and defended. Understanding violence as an intersectional experience - defined by race, class, gender and sexuality in the context of post-apartheid South Africa - is central to the analysis. This study employed an integrated and unique methodology to sample men, their networks and printed media reports, which involved an analysis of violence as a social act. To my knowledge, it is the first study to have asked questions about what social representations of intimate partner violence emerge in men and their social networks' narratives and how these resonate in South African media's discourses. Suggestions for prevention and community-based programmes, interventions for perpetrators and victims of intimate partner violence, and practical recommendations for improved journalistic practice are provided. The community, relationships and individuals are shown to be inseparable spheres, and the contextualised analyses of power and oppression are shown to open possibilities for social change.

15. Zammit, Amanda. The Use of Alcohol and the Impact on the Use of Threats in Domestic Violence Cases.
▼ Domestic Violence is a public health issue that is affecting millions of people annually. Police reports can give a unique aspect of cases that involve domestic violence because the narrative is a firsthand report of the violent incident. Using domestic violence case reports gathered from a law enforcement database at a county Sheriff's office in Florida, the current study examines whether alcohol use in domestic violence incidents influences threats that the victim receives during the incident. Logistic regression analysis indicates that alcohol use does not significantly impact threats that the victim receives during a domestic violence altercation. However, the study found that if there is a history of domestic violence mentioned in the police report, it is more likely that threats are also mentioned. The findings suggest that more research should be done on domestic violence cases involving alcohol use and non-violent forms of abuse such as threats. Advisors/Committee Members: Reckdenwald, Amy.

16. -1168-110X. Effects of Angry Rumination and Distraction in Partner Violent Men.
▼ Although the tendency to ruminate is related to the frequency of intimate partner violent (IPV) perpetration (Sotelo & Babcock, 2013), it is unclear how intimate partner violent men react emotionally and physiologically during angry rumination. The current study is the first to experimentally manipulate rumination and distraction in a violent sample. Using the rumination and distraction paradigm developed by Nolen-Hoeksema and Morrow (1993), IPV and nonviolent (NV) men underwent an anger induction and were randomly assigned to either ruminate or distract. Both groups were expected to show an increase in physiological arousal and self-reported anger during rumination and a decrease in physiological arousal and self-reported anger during distraction. Self-reported anger was predicted to mediate the change in physiological arousal. IPV men were hypothesized to experience increased effects of rumination compared to NV men. The present study also explored IPV men's tendency to ruminate (trait rumination). As predicted, the results demonstrate an increase in heart rate from baseline to post-rumination. No change in physiological arousal was observed in the distraction condition over time. Surprisingly, both conditions resulted in an increase in self-reported anger. Self-reported anger could not be tested as a mediator of physiological arousal because the basic requirements of mediation were not established. No difference self-reported anger was found between IPV and NV men. Trait rumination was found to be positively correlated with IPV frequency, depressive symptoms, and anxious symptoms. From a theoretical and clinical perspective, the effects of angry rumination in IPV men, and a violent sample in general, must be examined in order to understand the sequence of events that lead to an act of IPV and develop effective interventions for perpetrators.

17. Iyican, Susan. The Proximal Effect of Alcohol on Intimate Partner Violence.
▼ Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a concerning public health problem in the United States. There has been consistent evidence for a positive association between alcohol use and IPV perpetration. However, relatively little research has been conducted to explore the proximal relation between alcohol use and IPV and how violent incidents differ depending on whether alcohol was involved or not. The current study used sequential analysis to examine women's descriptions of violent incidents and explore the particular types of behaviors or events that preceded men's perpetration of IPV. In accordance with the attention-allocation model (AAM) of alcohol use (Steele, Southwick, & Pagano, 1986), it was hypothesized that intoxicated men would respond violently to a wide range of partner cues, whereas men who were sober would only react violently in response to the most threatening partner cues. Moreover, intoxicated men were expected to demonstrate less inhibition of violence to suppressor cues of the partners' distress as compared to sober men. Participants were 80 couples in which at least one partner reported some male-to-female IPV within the past year. While sober men were more likely than would be expected based on chance to react violently to their partner's physical threat (z = 4.86, p < .001) and perceived threat (z = 2.26, p = .024) behavior, these behaviors were not significantly predictive of violence for intoxicated men. Sober men were less likely to become violent after their partners displayed distress cues (z = -2.35, p = .019), whereas women's distress cues had no significant impact on intoxicated men's perpetration of violence. Clinical implications are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Babcock, Julia C. (advisor), Derrick, Jaye L.

18. Snyder, Briana. Views of women with dissociative identity disorder on intimate partner violence: a grounded theory approach.
▼ Abuse and neglect are global phenomena with devastating personal, familial, and societal effects. When occurring in childhood, maltreatment increases the risk for additional abuse experiences across the lifespan. This purpose of this review is to summarize and analyze current research about the relationship between the experience of child maltreatment (CM) and intimate partner violence (IPV) in adulthood. The majority of literature supports that CM increases the risk for IPV, and the link appears to be stronger in specific populations, including female veterans, teens, sexual minorities, and individuals with mental illness. Nurse-midwives are uniquely poised to prevent and address this maltreatment, due to the intimate nature of the care they provide to clients and their families, but continue to encounter barriers in practice. Nurse-midwives need additional resources and training related to abuse, and they must take an active role in assessing, treating, providing resources, and making appropriate referrals to interprofessional colleagues. Keywords: child abuse, child maltreatment, intimate partner violence, domestic violence, spousal abuse Advisors/Committee Members: Finfgeld-Connett (advisor).

19. Riffe-Snyder, Kellie Ann. Intimate Partner Violence Stories of Appalachian Women Residing in Rural and Non-Urbanized Areas .
▼ The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore past intimate partner violence as it occurs in Appalachian women residing in rural and non-urbanized areas. Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a social problem occurring within the context of an intimate relationship. It is estimated that 3.5 to 5 million American women experience some form of IPV each year (Tjaden & Thoennes, 2000). Abuse types include physical, sexual, psychological, emotional, economic, and stalking, and can involve individuals of any age, race, socioeconomic status, geographic region, or cultural heritage. In this study, participants lived in areas of Appalachia with less than 50,000 residents. Appalachia is a geographic region which spans 13 states, including West Virginia where all participants lived. Twelve past IPV victims shared their stories through the sociocultural tradition of story-telling. Data which emerged through analysis of interview transcripts revealed a meta-theme of Turning Points, which is reflective of the perceived non-linearity of IPV. Themes were: (1) When Hope Turns to Fear; (2) Escalation of Abuse; (3) Continuation of Abuse; (4) That's When I Knew it had to Stop; (5) Leaving as a Non-Linear Process; (6) Learn from my Story. Don't Let it be Your Story; and (7) Does Where I Live Make a Difference? Participants experienced multiple types of abuse, and there was always a co-occurrence of abuses. When the severity and frequency of abuse escalated, perpetrators used multiple strategies to hide the abuse, such as isolating the victim from family and friends, and limiting access to transportation and phones. Eventually, each participant recognized they had to leave or their injuries might prove fatal. Leaving was a non-linear process, but each survivor was able to end her abusive relationship. One way they sought to make meaning from their IPV experience was educating others in abuse recognition; disseminating information about abuse both pro-actively and re-actively; and offering emotional, psychological, and perhaps even physical support to past or present IPV victims. One or more facets of the IPV experience was addressed in relation to the sociocultural components of rural or non-urbanized areas of Appalachia.

20. Walton, Jared Reid. Difficult Conversations: The Dynamics Surrounding New Zealand Women's Disclosure of Intimate Partner Violence to Family and Friends.
▼ One in three New Zealand women has experienced Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) at some stage in their lives, with the vast majority of these women disclosing to a family member or friend at some stage during or after the relationship. Therefore, it is important to understand the dynamics involved with this disclosure. This study draws on feminist perspectives and a grounded theory methodology to examine six women's experiences with these dynamics. These women reported being very careful about when they disclosed, often going to great lengths to hide the abuse, and who they disclosed to. Furthermore, they explained that they felt a number of barriers to disclosure, both of a personal and social nature. They also described a number of different reactions they received, both negative and positive. In reflecting on their situations these women had come to a number of realisations, while during the interviews a number of observations were made, particularly regarding the strength they showed. In bringing their experiences together, it was clear that upon disclosure women require their family and friends to listen non-judgementally; help them to understand IPV; support the woman's decisions; and offer tangible support if necessary. However, negative experiences were not uncommon, and it was hypothesised that there are two forms of this: passive, which comes about through a lack of understanding; and active, which comes about through a conscious decision to be unsupportive. In concluding, it was suggested that widespread education be introduced, and public awareness campaigns be widened, to increase public understanding of IPV.

21. Riley, D. Resilience determinants in women exposed to various degrees of intimate partner violence.
▼ The experience of intimate partner violence is traumatising for many of the women who are subjected to it; however, many people who experience a traumatic event display little or no psychological distress and there is evidence that some people may even thrive despite these experiences. The aim of the present study was to examine the intrapersonal mechanisms that may promote resilient responses in women exposed to various degrees of intimate partner violence. A community drawn sample of women (N=184), comprising both abused and non-abused participants, completed the survey-based study. Participants completed questionnaires assessing resilience, event cognitions, appraisals, personality, coping, and psychopathology. A series of correlational, ANOVA, and regression analyses were then completed to assess the relationships between these constructs. Overall, the results of the present study suggest that resilience was independent of exposure to abuse and women reporting higher levels of resilience experienced lower levels of negative symptoms (e.g., negative event cognitions, appraisals, and psychopathology). Regression analyses indicated that higher levels of resilience were predicted by personality factors, primarily emotional stability, and coping variables, planning, denial, and positive reframing. Resilience was depleted by self-blame, depression, and negative self-view. Further, the results suggest that resilience may be both a trait and a process. Clinically, this outcome implies that resilient traits (e.g., personality factors) can be translated into resilient processes (e.g., coping style) which can be taught and strengthened within a therapeutic context.

22. Woulfe, Julie M. LGBTQ Survivors of Identity Abuse: Heterosexist and Gender Oppressive Abuse Tactics and Their Relationship to Mental Health Among LGBTQ Survivors.
▼ Intimate partner violence (IPV) and its substantial consequences remain widespread for LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) individuals (Balsam, Rothblum, & Beauchaine, 2005; Walters, Chen, & Breidig, 2013). LGBTQ IPV survivors are particularly vulnerable to identity abuse: tactics leveraging heterosexism and cissexism (FORGE, 2014; NCDSV, 2014). Past research has documented the existence of LGBTQ-specific identity abuse as a unique dimension of victimization (Balsam & Szymanski, 2005; FORGE, 2014; NCDSV, 2014), with limited attention to those at greatest risk despite the diversity of the LGBTQ community. Participants who identified as LGBTQ (n = 734; 53% cisgender women; 39% queer or pansexual; 84% White; Mage = 33.48) completed surveys that assessed their exposure to identity abuse (7-items; α = .79), physical and sexual abuse (20-items; α= .89) and psychological abuse (14-items; α = .87), and other demographics. The data were analyzed to determine 1) whether there were demographic differences in exposure to identity abuse, 2) whether identity abuse contributed to variance in PTSD or depression scores; and, 3) whether the relationships between identity abuse and PTSD and depression scores were moderated by affirmative LGBTQ identity. Findings indicated that there were significant differences in identity abuse exposure by gender and sexual orientation. With regard to gender, ANOVA analyses revealed transgender or nonbinary-identified individuals reported higher rates of past year identity abuse exposure than cisgender males and cisgender females. Also, cisgender females were most likely to report adult exposure to identity abuse compared to transgender or nonbinary-identified individuals and cisgender males. Queer-identified individuals were most likely to report adult exposure to identity abuse compared to lesbian, bisexual, and gay-identified individuals. Identity abuse contributed to the variance in symptoms of PTSD and depression. This relationship remained significant even after accounting for exposure to other forms of violence (e.g., psychological abuse and physical abuse). Further, an affirmative LGBTQ identity indeed weakened the relationship between exposure to past year and adult identity abuse, respectively, and depressive symptoms. However, there was no moderating effect found for symptoms of PTSD. These results add to existing IPV literature by identifying particular subgroups within the LGBTQ community who are at greater risk of identity abuse exposure within intimate partner relationships, suggesting that exposure to identity abuse contributes to poorer mental health outcomes, and indicating that affirmative LGBTQ identity is a protective factor that could be utilized in intervention and prevention efforts. As a whole, these results highlight the need for increased awareness of identity abuse within the LGBTQ community, as well as routine and comprehensive assessment for identity abuse exposure by service providers.

23. Baughman, Kiersten. From Adolescence to Adulthood: Intimate Partner Violence in Honor Cultures.
▼ Intimate partner violence is no new problem. It affects millions worldwide each year. This set of studies was designed to locate the various places within romantic relationships where an influence of culture of honor can be shown. The first study examines archival data on U.S. teen dating violence. Results indicate that adolescent females do indeed experience a higher risk of violence merely by living within an honor-oriented state, particularly as they near the end of high school. The second study moves into a lab setting with a slightly older sample and assesses college females' perceptions of potential male dating targets in an online dating profile. Women who strongly endorsed honor ideology indicated a higher likelihood to pursue a more "dangerous" target than did women who did not strongly endorse the culture of honor. Honor-endorsing women who viewed a less dangerous target indicated equal likelihood to pursue him as did non-honor endorsing women. Finally, the third study utilizes a national sample of married women to assess how attitudes toward "mate guarding" behaviors are associated with women's relational experiences. Results indicate that a complex set of factors including honor norm endorsement, mate guarding experiences, and perceiving mate guarding behaviors as displays of commitment combine to predict wives' ratings of their current marriages. Taken as a whole, these studies lend credence to the growing body of evidence that in order to address the global intimate partner violence problem, honor-oriented values must be thoroughly examined.

24. Paynter, Emily. The Relationship Between Alcohol Consumption Patterns and Intimate Partner Violence Victimization and Perpetration Among Youth in the Slums of Kampala, Uganda.
▼ Purpose: To determine the prevalence of and identify specific alcohol consumption patterns related to intimate partner violence perpetration and victimization among youth in Kampala, Uganda. Methods: Data were collected on 457 youth aged 14-24 years for the 2011 Kampala Youth Survey. Prevalence for intimate partner violence victimization and perpetration were compared for males and females. The relationship between two specific alcohol consumption patterns and intimate partner victimization and perpetration were examined. Results: In 2011, 32.2% of Kampala youth reported being victims and 20.3% reported being perpetrators of violence against an intimate partner. Females were significantly less likely to report being perpetrators than males (OR= 0.53, 95% CI 0.36-0.79). Increased frequency of alcohol consumption within the past month was associated with an increased likelihood for intimate partner violence victimization, perpetration, and the overlap variable of being both a victim and perpetrator. Conclusion: This study identifies specific alcohol consumption patterns that are risk factors for being a victim, a perpetrator, and both a victim and perpetrator of intimate partner violence in youth in the slums of Kampala. It also highlights the need for adolescent-specific studies regarding intimate partner violence due to gender differences. Advisors/Committee Members: Dr. Monica Swahn, Dr. Scott Weaver.

25. Taylor, Shauna. Pregnancy-associated Intimate Partner Violence:an Examination Of Multiple Dimensions Of Intimate Partner Abuse Victimization Usi.
▼ Using three separate and unique sources of data, this study was designed to address: a) the associations between pregnancy-related violence and femicide with sociodemographic characteristics of victims and offenders and with family dynamics, b) how pregnancy affects the risk for threats of violence, power and control tactics, physical violence, stalking, sexual violence, and femicide, and c) how pregnancy contributes to increased severity of abuse. The overall results reveal a significant statistical correlation between pregnancy and the increased risk of intimate partner abuse on many dimensions, including physical abuse, stalking and harassment, sexual abuse, threats of serious harm and death, lethality risk, and power and control. The correlation between pregnancy and femicide is less clear and in need of further examination. While the nature of pregnancy as a risk factor across multiple dimensions of abuse is certainly pervasive, the findings indicate that power and coercive control warrants close attention as a potentially prominent and dangerous dynamic. Women of younger age, those single or divorced, residing with an IP, and having children in the home were shown to have a significantly increased risk of non-lethal and lethal IPV in all three samples. The findings contribute evidence to existing literature concerning potentially catastrophic outcomes for pregnancies occurring in an abusive context, including extremely high rates of miscarriage in abusive relationships. Implications for practice and for research are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Jasinski, Jana.

▼ Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a prevalent and concerning health issue with associated poor health outcomes. The primary purpose of this quantitative study was to determine if attitudes (intrapersonal & social) and emergency room practice (environmental) factors influence screening for IPV by rural emergency room (ER) registered nurses (RN) and Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVN). Limited research exists about factors influencing IPV screening in rural nurses. An anonymous cross-sectional survey design was utilized to administer the Health Care Provider Survey (HCPS) of IPV Attitudes and Practices and the subscale Domestic Chores Domestic Life Domain (DCDLD) from the Gender Equitable Male (GEM) scale via a survey link to Psychdata. One hundred and five rural emergency room nurses in Texas participated. The data analysis included a descriptive analysis of the variables using means, standard deviations, and ranges of scores for the continuous variables of preparedness, self-confidence, professional supports, abuse inquiry, nurse consequences for asking, comfort following disclosure, nurse lack of control, and nurse practice pressures. Multiple linear regression was used to predict the relationship of social, environmental, and geographical influences with rural nurse IPV screening. In this study the hypothesized independent variable, Age Group was determined to be a statistically significant predictor of Professional Support. The Highest Degree Earned was a significant predictor of scores for Preparedness, Self-confidence, Comfort Following Disclosure, and Practice Pressures. The Type of Nurse significantly predicted scores for Preparedness, Self-confidence, and Comfort Following Disclosure. The Type of ER was a significant predictor of Comfort Following Disclosure and Professional Support. Experience with Abuse Disclosures significantly predicted scores for Preparedness, and Formal Training about IPV significantly predicted scores for Preparedness, Self-confidence, Practitioner lack of control, Comfort Following Disclosure, Professional Support, and Practice Pressures. Thus, this study provided valuable insight as to where health education needs to be focused and the barriers rural Texas ER nurses encounter. Advisors/Committee Members: Golman, Mandy (advisor).

27. Dewey, Morgan D. Inclusive Branding Strategies for Domestic Violence Agencies: Embracing Opportunities to Reach and Better Serve Male-Identified Survivors.
▼ Successful strategies for branding that are inclusive to male-identified survivors were identified in this qualitative study through semi-structured interviews with leaders from six domestic violence agencies across the United States: four represented traditional domestic violence agencies and two represented specialized agencies with expertise in providing services to non-traditional survivors. The strategic implementation of 1) inclusive language, 2) visual diversity, 3) community outreach, and 4) communication channels emerged as successful strategies in branding in an inclusive way for male-identified survivors. The implementation of these successful strategies provides the opportunity for domestic violence agencies to create an inclusive environment for male-identified survivors, and would contribute to a paradigm shift in how domestic violence is viewed.

30. Crump, Tracy G. Surviving Domestic Violence: An Exploratory Analysis of Survivor Needs.
▼ Domestic violence is a persistent problem that impacts individuals and communities. Unaddressed violence can have serious psychological effects and, if prolonged, can lead to the death of the victim. Out of concern for victims and their families, research has centered on individuals who wish to leave abusive relationships. Initiatives have been implemented to provide resources that criminalize abusive behavior and assist victims in leaving abusive relationships. Overall, these resources were designed for victims of domestic violence who are in immediate crisis, those who experience severe abuse, and those who want to leave their relationships. However, less attention has been given to the needs of those who experience less lethal abuse and who choose to remain in relationships with their abusers. With this study, I sought to fill this gap. I examined the experiences of 20 female victims of domestic violence who have remained in romantic relationships with their abusers. Specifically, I explored survivors' perceptions of safety when remaining in their relationships and identified six needs that, when met, would assist participants with ending the abuse. Advisors/Committee Members: Richie, Beth E (advisor).

Third Edition of African SABRE Awards Competition Now Open For Entries
The Holmes Group in partnership with the African Public Relations Association (APRA) have announced entries for the third Africa SABRE Awards.
The SABRE Awards, which recognize Superior Achievement in Branding, Reputation & Engagement, have a 25-year heritage, with separate competitions in North America, EMEA, the Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and South Asia.
The African SABREs are now in their third year—last year's winners were celebrated at the APRA conference in Gaborone, Botswana—and are open to public relations and other agencies working in Africa, as well as to marketing and corporate communications departments for companies, non-profits, and governments.
This year's event will also be expanded with two additional awards: the African Consultancy of the Year, which has historically been presented at the EMEA SABRE Awards ceremony; and the SABRE Award for Outstanding Individual Achievement, which will for the first time extend the individual awards presented in the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific into Africa. The 2019 awards will be presented at the APRA conference in Kigali, which takes place May 13-17.
According to Paul Holmes, who chairs the SABRE judges: "The past two African SABRE Awards competitions have attracted entries from across the continent and spotlighted great work in multiple markets and multiple practice areas. We are excited to expand on that success this year, and to showcase great African work to the global public relations community."
The winners of the African SABREs are automatically entered into the broader EMEA region SABRE Awards, and are also eligible for the Global SABRE Awards, which are presented at our PRovoke global conference in Washington, DC.
APRA president Yomi Badejo-Okusanya adds: "We are delighted at the year-on-year increase in the number of entries for the SABRE Awards Africa and proud of the quality of work that is entered. It is also great to see that the work of our PR colleagues across Africa goes on to win the larger geographic prizes, such as EMEA Sabre Awards, as well.
The theme for APRA Rwanda 2019 is 'Africa and Storytelling.

With 'Hood Hero,' Wilmington coder wants to fight crime with texted tips
If adopted, a new anonymous text messaging system could connect tips with cops on the beat to create real-time, actionable crime data. Currently the Wilmington Police Department uses a web-based form for tips. (Zack Seward/WHYY)
Bradford Wason is standing in downtown Wilmington not far from the site of a midday shooting in April that left one dead.
Wason, a lifelong Wilmingtonian, thinks violent crime is the city's biggest problem — and he thinks a technology he's developing could be part of the solution.
It's called Hood Hero, an anonymous text messaging system aimed at getting people to stop staying quiet on crime.
"It's a paradigm," said Wason, "so we need to kind of change that, and give [people] a gateway to feel that they can be connected to the police and send in a tip without everybody in their community knowing that they've just snitched, for lack of a better word."
The completely anonymous system connects tips with cops on the beat to create real-time, actionable crime data.
"It can be on any phone," Wason said. "It's not just smartphone-based."
The project is a byproduct of Startup Weekend Delaware, held the first weekend in May.
Wason, who works in digital advertising by day, says Hood Hero's techy approach to crime fighting has long been a side interest.
"It's a passion," said Wason. "I think that our city has this issue. I think it's something that we need to think about differently than just regular boots on the ground. We've tried that, it's not working, so let's see how we can empower all our officers."
Wason says he and his development partner have yet to connect with the police department. Still, they're hoping to beta test Hood Hero in Wilmington for free. Wason says a handful of city staffers and community leaders have expressed interest. They're also seeking investors.
For users of the system, Hood Hero is just a number to text. On the police end, Wason is also developing mobile and PC-based interfaces designed to help officers respond quickly.
The Wilmington Police Department currently uses a web-based form for submitting anonymous tips. Requests for information left with the department went unanswered.
Police in Philadelphia already have a text number for tips. When it launched last spring, the number, PPDTIP, was receiving about 200 texts a month.

In 1924, a 17-year-old girl was admitted to the Virginia State Colony for Epileptics and Feebleminded. The superintendent of the colony classified her as "feeble-minded of the lowest grade, moron class." With that designation, this girl, Carrie Buck, was set on a path she didn't choose. What happened next laid the foundation for the forced sterilization of tens of thousands of people. This week, we revisit a 2018 episode about the eugenics movement and one of the most tragic social experiments in American history.
