The aim of this scoping review was to identify substance use behaviour among stalkers who have been charged or convicted for stalking behaviour. A scoping review was conducted, and nine studies met the inclusion criteria. Substance use among stalkers was inconsistently defined and therefore the percentage of stalkers who used substances ranged from 0 % to 64 %. Substance use was most commonly defined by a psychiatric diagnosis while substance use immediately before or during the stalking offence was reported infrequently. Studies defining substance use more stringently reported lower proportions of substance use among stalkers. Few studies differentiated between alcohol and drug use or considered comorbidity. Overall, this review identified stalkers' substance use as a research gap; few studies met the inclusion criteria, contemporary evidence was sparse, and there was an absence of research underpinned by addiction or non-forensic clinical perspectives. Future research should consider the temporal proximity of stalkers' substance use with their stalking behaviour as this may have greater relevance to intervention than the presence of a diagnostic history.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51360,"journal":{"name":"Aggression and Violent Behavior","volume":"77 ","pages":"Article 101927"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S135917892400017X/pdfft?md5=2f2fdccaedc6978a04b2c82127ab2e25&pid=1-s2.0-S135917892400017X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140062755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesized the information available about perceived severity of IPVAW by different actors (e.g., victims, perpetrators, students, and professionals), analyzed the relationship between attitudes toward IPVAW and perceived severity of IPVAW, and examined gender differences in perceived severity of IPVAW. A systematic search was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines using Web of Science, Scopus, and ProQuest databases. Studies were included if they (a) provide information about perceived severity of IPVAW (physical, psychological, or sexual violence); (b) the relationship between perception of severity of IPVAW and attitudes toward IPVAW was analyzed empirically; (c) the languages of publication were English or Spanish; and (d) they were not theoretical studies or reviews. To this end, two independent researchers selected studies, resolving discrepancies with a third researcher. A total of 27 studies were included in systematic review and 12 in the meta-analysis. The results showed that men perceived IPVAW as less severe than women. Likewise, a negative relationship was found between perceived IPVAW severity and favorable attitudes toward IPVAW, such as sexist views, victim blaming, excusing the perpetrator, rape myth acceptance, and traditional gender roles adherence. The Classic Fail-Safe <em>n</em> was calculated to ensure the finding was robust against potential publication bias. These findings highlight some of the potential factors to focus on IPVAW prevention programs. However, the number of studies included were limited, requiring more research to generalize the results.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51360,"journal":{"name":"Aggression and Violent Behavior","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 101925"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1359178924000156/pdfft?md5=6db42e7c28c8c77ec3184279c2244173&pid=1-s2.0-S1359178924000156-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139938933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our primary findings suggest that level of globalization, a macrosystem factor, influences the strength of the association between physical IPV perpetration and risk and protective markers on various ecological system levels. Lower levels of globalization was associated with the strengthening of child abuse victimization, witnessing parental IPV, emotional IPV perpetration, sexual IPV perpetration, and alcohol use as risk marker of physical IPV perpetration. Lower levels of globalization was also associated with the strengthening of older age and relationship satisfaction as protective factors against physical IPV perpetration.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51360,"journal":{"name":"Aggression and Violent Behavior","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 101924"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139999332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the increased scrutiny of elder abuse has raised questions about the consequences of prosecution on victims, perpetrators, and society, calling for a careful analysis of when and how the criminal justice system intervenes in these cases. To understand the nature and characteristics of elder abuse perpetrators, the article briefly reviews three sources of administrative data on perpetrators, followed by a concise review of the perpetrator research, most of which does not draw from criminal justice samples. To explain how the criminal justice system responds to elder abuse perpetrators, the article describes the criminal justice system's philosophy, the careful balancing of multiple factors when exercising prosecutorial discretion and provides a compilation of criminal justice responses that may be available to prosecutors in elder abuse cases. Recommendations for improvements in administrative data and increases in the quantity and quality of perpetrator research are presented. Where prosecution may be warranted, this paper argues that prosecutors would benefit from having a range of pre- and post-charging perpetrator interventions available. Filling research gaps identified in this paper could form the foundation for developing targeted criminal justice responses that both address the underlying causes of perpetrator criminal behavior and consider victim's wishes and may ultimately increase the safety and well-being of older adults and the communities in which they live.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51360,"journal":{"name":"Aggression and Violent Behavior","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 101921"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139676961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
