Muftic, Lisa R.; Baumann, Miranda L. – Journal of Interpersonal Violence, 2012
Femicide, the murder of females (most often at the hands of males), is an understudied area in homicide research. Furthermore, femicide perpetrated by females has been all but ignored. One reason this may be is because of the rarity of homicide victimization perpetrated by females. Rather, most homicide incidents consist of a male offender and a…

Results indicate that male and female interpersonal assault…

McIntyre, Jared Kean; Widom, Cathy Spatz – Journal of Interpersonal Violence, 2011
The purpose of this study is to determine whether abused and neglected children are at increased risk for subsequent crime victimization.

(b) Do lifestyle characteristics (prostitution, running away,…

In some studies women IPV arrestees have been found to be at high risk for substance-related problems, whereas in others they are found to be at low risk for substance-related problems. The current study explores these…
