Abstract

Background: Sexual violence is prevalent on college campuses, yet formal disclosure and open dialogue are often muffled. Social media has become a powerful platform for survivors and presents an opportunity for researchers to explore social discourse surrounding sexual violence on campuses. Healthcare providers must be knowledgeable of campus climate surrounding sexual violence to provide patient-centered, trauma-informed care and mitigate the detrimental, long-term effects experienced by survivors.

Methods: Twitter, a social media and networking platform, was used to explore online discourse regarding sexual violence among college students. A conventional qualitative content analysis was implemented using two coders to explore data before identifying themes.

Results: The researchers identified 175 tweets that met the inclusion criteria. Three subthemes emerged: (a) lack of support, (b) powerlessness, and (c) victim blaming and shaming, which built the foundation for the overarching theme of rape culture.

Conclusion: Social media posts provide insight into survivor experiences and offer forensic nurses and healthcare providers the opportunity to discover information that survivors might not otherwise disclose. Forensic nurses should consider implementing innovative approaches to engage campus survivors and increase access to postassault care.

性暴力与社交媒体言论:通过 Twitter 的视角探索校园氛围。
背景介绍性暴力在大学校园中普遍存在,但正式的披露和公开的对话却常常被掩盖。社交媒体已成为幸存者的一个强大平台,也为研究人员提供了一个探索校园性暴力社会言论的机会。医疗服务提供者必须了解围绕性暴力的校园氛围,以提供以患者为中心、创伤知情的护理,并减轻幸存者所经历的有害的长期影响:方法:使用社交媒体和网络平台 Twitter 来探讨大学生中有关性暴力的网络言论。在确定主题之前,使用两名编码员对数据进行了传统的定性内容分析:研究人员确定了 175 条符合纳入标准的推文。出现了三个次主题:(a) 缺乏支持;(b) 无能为力;(c) 受害者自责和羞辱,这为强奸文化这一总主题奠定了基础:社交媒体帖子提供了对幸存者经历的深入了解,并为法医护士和医疗服务提供者提供了发现幸存者可能不会披露的信息的机会。法医护士应考虑实施创新方法,让校园幸存者参与进来,并增加获得侵害后护理的机会。
