BYSTANDER PROGRAM ADOPTION & EFFICACY TO REDUCE SV-IPV IN COLLEGE COMMUNITY

 描述（由申请人提供）：在大学社区，身体强迫性行为与约会暴力的比率仍然很高（在过去的12个月里，10，000名女大学生中有22%披露了这些形式的暴力侵害妇女行为（VAW））。 旁观者干预被认为是有希望的暴力预防战略，其独特之处在于所有社区成员的参与，以1）认识到可能成为暴力的情况，2）学会安全有效地进行干预，以减少暴力风险。 基于他们的承诺，《校园性暴力消除法》（SavE）现在要求所有公立大学提供旁观者干预。 随着SavE的政策干预需要旁观者干预，一个“自然实验”已经出现，以确定学生的旁观者培训在多个大学的相对有效性。 我们提出了一个准实验设计与部分因素，以评估旁观者干预组件的相对有效性，以减少在大学社区的暴力。 绿色点将是评价的旁观者干预组成部分之一，因为我们小组在严格评价绿色点方面有相当丰富的经验，我们最近发现，这种旁观者干预与大学和高中环境中暴力侵害妇女减少20-40%相关。 目标1. 比较旁观者干预的相对功效：1）增加旁观者功效和行为，2）减少暴力接受，3）减少暴力受害和犯罪，4）增加计划成本效益。 比较的三个主要旁观者组将是：a）完全在线培训，绿色点（演讲和强化旁观者培训），以及其他基于技能的旁观者培训。 计划的有效性数据将从学生调查，校园犯罪统计，以及与负责选择和实施旁观者干预措施的大学工作人员和管理人员的调查中获得。 我们将在每个学院收集数据，为期4年。 该项目（每年约50 000名学生。 肯塔基州大学和西弗吉尼亚大学的肯塔基州临床和转化科学中心提供的基础设施将支持暴力侵害妇女研究协调中心收集和分析来自24所招募的大学的所有电子数据，比较不同的旁观者干预。 暴力侵害妇女问题研究人员来自多个学科，但很少有培训计划支持这一高度相关的应用研究的多样化领域。 因此，我们寻求发展暴力侵害妇女预防研究人员社区。 研究者社区将通过研究者参与大学招聘、调查设计、数据收集和分析而形成。 目标2. 确定该计划在提高暴力侵害妇女预防研究生产力方面的效力，定义为：1）提高研究技能，2）增加研究群体，以手稿提交、演讲和出版物衡量。 这一自然实验将使人们对旁观者成分如何以及如何防止暴力产生新的理解。 它还将为暴力侵害妇女研究界提供一个机会，以提高我们的技能，分享我们的经验，并帮助培养下一代暴力侵害妇女预防研究人员。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Rates of physically forced sex to dating violence remain high in college communities (22% of 10,000 female undergraduates disclosed these forms of violence against women (VAW) in the past 12 months (2010-2013). Bystander interventions, recognized as promising violence prevention strategies, are unique in their engagement of all community members to 1) recognize situations that may become violent and 2) learn to safely and effectively intervene to reduce violence risk. Based on their promise, the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act (SaVE) now requires all publicly-funded college to provide bystander intervention. With SaVE's policy intervention requiring bystander intervention, a "natural experiment" has arisen to determine the relative efficacy of students' bystander training across multiple colleges. We propose a quasi-experimental design with fractional factorials to evaluate the relative efficacy of bystander interventions components to reduce violence in college communities. Green Dot will be one of the bystander intervention components evaluated because our group has considerable experience rigorously evaluating Green Dot and we have recently found that this bystander intervention is associated with a 20-40% reduction in VAW in college and high school settings. Aim 1. Compare the relative efficacy of bystander interventions to 1) increase bystander efficacy and behaviors, 2) reduce violence acceptance, 3) reduce violence victimization and perpetration, and 4) increase program cost effectiveness. The three primary bystander groups compared will be: a) exclusively online training, Green Dot (speeches and intensive bystander training), and other skills-based by stander training. Program efficacy data will be obtained from student surveys, campus crime statistics, and surveys with college staff and administrators responsible for selecting and implementing bystander interventions. We will collect data at each college for the full 4 years of the project (~50,000 students annually. Infrastructure provided by the Kentucky Center for Clinical and Translational Science at the University of Kentucky and West Virginia University will support a VAW Research Coordinating Center for all electronic data collection and analyses from 24 recruited colleges, comparing the different bystander interventions. VAW researchers draw from multiple disciplines yet few training programs support this diverse field of highly relevant applied research. Thus, we seek to grow communities of VAW prevention researchers. Researcher communities will form through researcher' engagement with college recruitment, survey design, data collection and analyses. Aim 2. Determine the efficacy of this program to increase VAW prevention research productivity defined as 1) increasing research skills and 2) increasing research communities measured as manuscript submissions, presentations, and publications. This natural experiment will generate new understanding of how and what bystander components work to prevent violence. It will also provide the VAW research community an opportunity to increase our skill-sets and share our experiences with and help grow the next generation of VAW prevention researchers.
