Explaining immunisation against violence against the person in Wales and its implications for a narrative approach to evidence-based policy-making

解释威尔士针对个人暴力的免疫接种及其对以证据为基础的政策制定的叙述方法的影响。有了这个博士学位，我将寻求从一个不同的角度来看待基于证据的政策制定，研究那些对暴力免疫的人，即使他们可能处于危险之中，而不是那些已经实施暴力的人。在犯罪和安全研究所（CSRI）担任研究助理期间，我负责创建一个探索性编码框架，并为威尔士保护报告建立一个存储库-即家庭谋杀，心理健康杀人和成人实践审查。作为我研究的一部分，我看到了一种生活模式的趋势，即作为审查过程的一部分，对肇事者及其家庭成员进行采访。我坚信这将受益于进一步的研究。在这些评论的外围，有许多人处于危险之中，但他们自己从未遭受暴力或实施暴力。研究这些不同的叙述有助于从政策角度揭示“未知的未知”，并有助于更好地为政策制定和保障措施提供信息。虽然我的个人兴趣是家庭内的致命暴力，但我对探索非致命暴力和共病的问题特别感兴趣。通常，我们看到那些处于家庭谋杀审查中心的人之前都有在家外对他人（通常是警察）实施暴力的记录。在精神健康杀人案的审查中，我们看到了类似的行为模式——尽管每个MHHR在本质上不一定都是国内的，但通常会有很大的重叠，即每个罪行都委托了DHR和MHHR。在成人实践审查中也存在这种针对暴力的“免疫”元素，即高风险个体在报告的叙述中出现，但没有犯下任何罪行。我想对这名学生采取一种混合方法的方法——使用终身访谈和焦点小组来建立叙事，并以二级数据分析为坚实基础，将其与我们已经知道的威尔士人际暴力联系起来。

Explaining immunisation against violence against the person in Wales and itsimplications for a narrative approach to evidence-based policymaking.With this PhD studentship, I would seek to look at evidence-basedpolicymaking from a different perspective by studying those who areimmunised against violence, even though they may be at risk, rather thanthose who are already committing said violence.During my time as a Research Assistant at the Crime and Security ResearchInstitute (CSRI) I was responsible for creating an exploratory coding frameworkand building a repository for Welsh safeguarding reports - namely DomesticHomicide, Mental Health Homicide and Adult Practice reviews.As part of my research, I saw a trend in life patterns where perpetrators andfamily members were interviewed as part of the review process. I stronglybelieve that this would benefit from further study. There are many in theperiphery of these reviews who are at risk, yet never suffer violence orperpetrate it themselves. Looking at these alternative narratives can helpreveal 'unknown unknowns' from a policy perspective and can serve to betterinform both policy creation and safeguarding measures.Although my personal interest is in fatal violence inside the home, I would beparticularly interested to explore issues of non-fatal violence and comorbiditywith this studentship. Often, we see those that are at the centre of domestichomicide reviews have a record of prior violence that they have perpetratedoutside the home on others (usually Police officers). With mental healthhomicide reviews, we see a similar pattern of behaviour - even though everyMHHR is not necessarily domestic in nature, there is often a large overlap thatwill see a DHR and an MHHR being commissioned for each offence. There arealso elements of this 'immunisation' against violence in adult practice reviews,where high risk individuals feature in the narrative of the reports but have notcommitted any crimes.I should like to undertake a mixed-methods approach with this studentship -using lifetime interviews and focus groups for narrative establishment, with astrong grounding in secondary data analysis to relate this to what we alreadyknow about interpersonal violence in Wales.
