Previous studies have demonstrated effects of similar programmes on attitudes/knowledge among bar staff. Yet, no studies have examined the effects of such programmes on intervention behaviour. Using a waitlist control design, we conducted thirty observations at four trained and four waitlist control bars in a rural U.S. college town, enacting scripts that matched the prompts for intervention that were included in the RTB curriculum implemented at the trained bars. Findings indicated staff at trained bars were significantly more likely to intervene than staff at the waitlisted bars, but this effect attenuated when control variables were included in the model. RTB appears promising, but further research is needed to fully establish its effects on intervention behaviour before recommending wide-spread rollout.Practice Impact Statement Findings from this study suggest that training bar staff to act as prosocial bystanders has the potential to prevent alcohol-involved sexual assault among college students. Yet, it is important to note that, although staff at trained bars were more likely to intervene than staff at waitlist control bars, intervention was relatively rare and the effect of training attenuated when controlling for contextual factors. Stronger evidence of the effects of such training needs to accumulate before community agencies widely implement these programmes.KEYWORDS: AlcoholSexual assaultPreventionBystanderBartender Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Ethics ApprovalApproval was obtained from Clemson University’s Institutional Review Board (IRB 2022-0098).

Fiction can provide context that assists to translate evidence-based prevention strategies in everyday ways, but to do so safely necessitates careful consideration of ethics. Five modern works of fiction were analysed to determine how intrafamilial child sexual abuse was elucidated and how the novels aligned with empirical findings. The results are considered with respect to developing a child safe approach to literature – a framework for critiquing literature that prioritises children's rights to safety over authorial rights to creative expression. Consideration is also given to how child welfare organisations, practitioners, policy makers and researchers might harness a child safe approach to fiction to disseminate accurate prevention information.PRACTICE IMPACT STATEMENT This review of modern works of fiction about intrafamilial child sexual abuse considers how the abuse is represented by contemporary authors. Reviewing fiction through a child safe lens permits critical examination of the myths reinforced or dispelled by the work. Adopting a child safe approach to fiction potentially affords practitioners, researchers, agencies and advocates an avenue to disseminate accurate prevention information that can reach individuals in everyday settings.KEYWORDS: Child sexual abusepreventionintrafamilial child sexual abusefictionliterary criticismchild safety AcknowledgementsI wish to thank Dr Susan Rayment-McHugh, Dr Ross Watkins and Associate Professor Harriot Beazley for their valuable and constructive feedback and support.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Searching SCOPUS, PsychNet and PubMed databases (20 May 2023) using keywords “child sexual abuse prevention” each resulted in over 3000 published peer-reviewed journal articles published from 2002.2 Anne Enright's, The Gathering, was awarded the 2007 Booker Prize.3 Craig Silvey's, Jasper Jones, was awarded Australian Book Industry Awards for Book of the Year (2010) and Literary Fiction Book of the Year (2010).","PeriodicalId":46758,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sexual Aggression","volume":"177 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135060590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
