摘要

摘要性侵案件流失研究一致表明，性侵投诉以令人不安的速度从系统中消失。在这篇文章中，我们描述了一种流失途径，即管理层的担忧激励案件处理结果，在系统的早期删除案件，并建立一个决策环境，在这个环境中，坚持强奸神话为结案提供了持续的合理化。利用向警方报告的性侵事件数据，我们进行了定量分析，调查了这种流失途径，考虑了警方和检察官在逮捕前阶段的合作方式，以及这种做法在多大程度上有助于使用特殊许可警察分类来结束性侵调查。

Pathways to Sexual Assault Case Attrition: Culture, Context, and Case Clearance

ABSTRACT Sexual assault case attrition research has been consistent in documenting that sexual assault complaints fall out of the system at disturbing rates. In this article, we describe a pathway to attrition where managerial concerns incentivize case processing outcomes that remove cases early in the system and scaffolds a decision-making context where rape myth adherence provides sustained rationalizations for closing cases. Using data on sexual assault incidents reported to the police, we present a quantitative analysis that investigates such a pathway to attrition that considers how police and prosecutors work together at the pre-arrest stage and the extent to which this practice facilitates the use of exceptional clearance police classification to close sexual assault investigations.

期刊介绍： Victims & Offenders is a peer-reviewed journal that provides an interdisciplinary and international forum for the dissemination of new research, policies, and practices related to both victimization and offending throughout the life course. Our aim is to provide an opportunity for researchers -- both in the United States and internationally -- from a wide range of disciplines (criminal justice, psychology, sociology, political science, economics, public health, and social work) to publish articles that examine issues from a variety of perspectives in a unique, interdisciplinary forum. We are interested in both quantitative and qualitative research, systematic, evidence-based reviews, and articles that focus on theory development related to offenders and victims.
