Hidden Depths Detailed Study Rape

项目摘要

Sexual violence can lead to a range of individual and social harms, including long-term impacts on physical and mental health and wellbeing. We currently know most about cases that enter the criminal justice system (CJS), but this is a small minority of recent and historic cases - all of whom may have support needs. This project involves access to a unique, and never before available for research, dataset held by Rape Crisis Centres (RCCs).Systematic data collection and analysis can help identify who is most at risk of victimisation (and most likely to perpetrate), what their needs are, and which interventions best enable them to move on with their lives. These data can inform and improve support services. The government's violence against women (VAW) action plan and various European institutions have called for improved data collection, yet quantitative data analysis on all forms of VAW, particularly sexual violence, is under-developed in the UK and Europe.Specialist support services hold a wealth of data on victim-survivors, including many who are hidden from official sources, as they have never reported to state agencies. Support services have historically been reluctant to share their data externally because of client confidentiality. However, new restructuring and commissioning processes mean these services must increasingly evidence their work, though not all have the resources or experience to know how to do this. The Rape Crisis (RC) sector has embraced these developments and is at the forefront of driving forward improvements in recording and monitoring their work. One such advance is their development of a Data Performance Management System (DPMS), which is now used in half of all RCCs nationally.Facilitated by our non-academic partner, South Essex Incest and Rape Crisis Centre (SERICC), a number of RCCs using DPMS are willing to provide the applicants access to their datasets. They combine to make a total sample of approximately 10,000 victim-survivors who have contacted RCCs since 2008. Three RCCs also hold large historic datasets (around 10,000 cases) they are willing to share and these will be linked with the DPMS-based data. This dataset is unique and its availability now is due to a longstanding relationship between CWASU, SERICC and the national RC Network.This project will combine three elements. Firstly, we will conduct in-depth analysis of this previously unavailable dataset, which includes victim-survivors seeking support about recent events and childhood sexual abuse. This will be extended to include data from further RCCs during the project. Secondly, we will build capacity in the RC sector to improve the quality of future data collection and maximise use of findings from data analysis. We will hold three workshops with a working group of RCC staff responsible for data management. These will inform the analysis and reflections on findings, whilst also exploring how RCCs can improve data collection processes and use their own data more effectively in service planning, awareness raising and policy work.CWASU has a history of collaborating with support services, practitioners and policy makers, including compiling some of the most extensive existing quantitative datasets on sexual violence in previous projects. However, our existing datasets are all limited to cases known to statutory services, especially the CJS, which we know comprise a minority of sexual violence. The project would contribute to the ESRC priority: Influencing behaviour and informing interventions. The research will produce greater understanding of the profiles of victim-survivors, perpetrators and contexts in which sexual violence takes place. We will also explore intersections of age, disability, ethnicity and class with health status and revictimisation. The outputs, alongside traditional academic papers, will include a series of briefing papers, some internal for RCCs and others for wider publics.

性暴力可能导致一系列个人和社会伤害，包括对身心健康和福祉的长期影响。我们目前知道的大多数案件进入刑事司法系统（CJS），但这是一个最近和历史的案件少数-所有这些人可能有支持的需要。该项目涉及访问强奸危机中心（RCCs）拥有的独特且从未用于研究的数据集，系统的数据收集和分析可以帮助确定谁最有可能被强奸（和最有可能犯罪），他们的需求是什么，以及哪些干预措施最能使他们继续生活。这些数据可以提供信息并改善支助服务。政府的暴力侵害妇女行动计划和欧洲各机构都呼吁改善数据收集工作，但在联合王国和欧洲，对各种形式的暴力侵害妇女行为，特别是性暴力行为的定量数据分析还不够发达。专家支持服务机构掌握着大量关于受害者-幸存者的数据，其中许多人从未向国家机构报告，因此无法从官方来源获得。由于客户保密，支助服务部门历来不愿对外分享数据。然而，新的重组和委托过程意味着这些服务必须越来越多地证明他们的工作，尽管并非所有人都有资源或经验知道如何做到这一点。强奸危机部门已经接受了这些发展，并处于推动改进记录和监测其工作的最前沿。其中一个进步是他们开发了数据性能管理系统（DPMS），现在全国一半的RCC都在使用该系统。在我们的非学术合作伙伴南埃塞克斯乱伦和强奸危机中心（SERICC）的帮助下，一些使用DPMS的RCC愿意为申请人提供访问其数据集的权限。这些联合收割机对自2008年以来联系过农村信用社的大约10 000名受害者幸存者进行了抽样。三个区域协调中心还持有他们愿意分享的大型历史数据集（约10，000例），这些数据集将与基于DPMS的数据相关联。该数据集是独一无二的，它的可用性是由于CWASU，SERICC和国家RC网络之间的长期关系。首先，我们将对这一先前无法获得的数据集进行深入分析，其中包括就最近的事件和儿童性虐待寻求支持的受害者幸存者。这将扩展到包括项目期间来自其他RCC的数据。其次，我们将在驻地协调员部门进行能力建设，以提高未来数据收集的质量，并最大限度地利用数据分析的结果。我们将与负责数据管理的区域合作中心工作人员举行三次讲习班。这些将为分析和思考结果提供信息，同时也探索区域协调中心如何改进数据收集过程，并在服务规划、提高认识和政策工作中更有效地使用自己的数据，CWASU有着与支助服务、从业人员和决策者合作的历史，包括在以前的项目中汇编一些最广泛的现有性暴力量化数据集。然而，我们现有的数据集都仅限于法定服务已知的案件，特别是CJS，我们知道其中包括少数性暴力。该项目将有助于ESRC的优先事项：影响行为和宣传干预措施。这项研究将使人们更好地了解受害者-幸存者、犯罪者和性暴力发生的背景。我们还将探讨年龄，残疾，种族和阶级与健康状况和康复的交叉点。除了传统的学术论文外，产出还将包括一系列简报文件，有些是为驻地协调员编写的内部文件，有些是为广大公众编写的。
