Sarah Douglas; Felicity Sedgewick – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024

Ispa-Landa, Simone; Thomas, Sara E. – Sociology of Education, 2023
Landmark research from before the 2010s shows that college women rarely held institutions responsible for allowing rape-prone party contexts to persist and failing to support survivors. Yet the college landscape has changed profoundly since these studies were published, with prominent anti-rape campaigns and new guidelines to Title IX policy. To…

Cierniak, Katie; Heiman, Julia R.; Plucker, Jonathan A. – Center for Evaluation and Education Policy, Indiana University, 2012

Speidel, Lisa – ProQuest LLC, 2010
Research has shown that one of the most effective responses for women to thwart sexual assault is through competence in physical fighting techniques.

Bebber, Charles C. – Journal of Interpersonal Violence, 1994
An increase in the rate of criminal violence greater than that of the previous year is seen to appear after each of the four military episodes of the 1980s, but not at any other time. Findings support the contention that a legitimization-of-violence model provides the most credible explanation of the link between war and civil violence. (JPS)
