YOUR FIRST FIVE
Your First Five Crime Studies of December 18
Today’s crime studies include work on “crime media as cinematic ‘freak show’”
These new criminology and criminal justice studies were published recently by journals I monitor.
1. The Effect of Parental Abuse and Negative School Experiences on Female Adolescent’s Substance Use: Focusing on the Mediating Effect of Depression, published in Crime & Delinquency.
2. Explaining the Victim-Offender Overlap of Cyberbullying Using Low Self-Control and Parental Bonds, published in Crime & Delinquency.
3. Understanding Domestic Violence Among Older Women in Ukraine: A Secondary Analysis Using Gender-Based Violence Screening Data, published in Journal of Interpersonal Violence.
4. Victimization in Prison. A Study of Victimization and Prison Climate Dimensions in Belgian Prisons, published in Victims & Offenders.
5. Crime media as cinematic “freak show”: Ableism and speciesism in retelling Dahmer, published in Crime, Media, Culture: An International Journal.
I might cover some of these studies further in Understanding Crime. If one sounds interesting or important, let me know in the comments. Right now, I’m considering number 5.
