Questions related to Violence
I want to find research that supports the idea of the prison environment contributing to poor mental health among adult prison inmates. I want to find research that speaks about the living conditions such as cell size, overcrowding, food, violence among inmates, mistreatment from prison guards and limited access to mental health services.
In many countries, surveys are carried out with certain frequency that measure the population's perception regarding a certain issue. In Mexico, for example, they are widely used to measure indices of perception of violence in states and municipalities and with this the most and least unsafe are defined. Can these types of tools be considered sufficient for the design of accurate indicators and, above all, for the generation of public policies and institutional programs?
Gun crimes, shooting, Killing, how it affects daily living in communities, families, and the country
I am writing to urgently seek your help regarding a critical situation in Bangladesh. The government is reportedly preparing to use lethal force against protesters and general civilians. The potential for widespread violence and loss of life is high.
Please assist in any way you can to prevent this violence and protect the lives of innocent people.
Poverty is generally a source of material difficulties. It causes communication difficulties between partners and children. Can it be considered the main source of violence by parents against their offspring?
I have been advocating for a definition of violence that encompasses four dimensions: (1) it is an expression of desires or decisions; (2) it promotes asymmetry; (3) it is a disregard for norms; and (4) it is conducive to potential harm. This conceptualization unveils the intent behind violent acts, highlighting an imbalanced power dynamic where aggressors breach established boundaries to enforce their will, resulting in any kind of damage.
Our endeavor aims to transcend fragmented approaches that categorize violence by types or manifestations, thereby illuminating its complexity and encouraging a critical dialogue on accountability and preventative measures against its various forms. This perspective underscores the necessity of comprehending the motivations and consequences of such actions.
Details can be found in the study below, pages 8 and 9.
What are your thoughts on this approach?
I would have never thought about the techniques, tricks, manipulations and tactics that they are using (some of them are criminal acts) unless I was a victim of a daylight knowledge robbery. All the names of the academics involved, directly or indirectly, will be mentioned in a book about plagiarism.
Despite of certain psychiatric conditions that could increase a person's risk of committing a crime, research suggests that patients with mental illness/disorder may be more prone to violence if they do not receive adequate treatment, are actively experiencing delusions, or have long-standing paranoia. Compared to their healthy counterparts in the general population, individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia are 4 to 6 times more likely to commit a violent crime as well as being the victims. In Western countries, there is about 6 percent (%) of the homicide perpetrators in the population are labeled schizophrenic.
Violence against them continued, especially against the most vulnerable and marginalized.
Need of Spritual Upliftment is growing worldwide nowadays amid the chaos, disorder, violence, hatred, envity, and what not, around the world. There is high need of spritual education. Please enlighten if there are such studies going on anywhere. Don't forget to share with me.
Thank you in anticipation.

Whenever there is talk of domestic violence, it is mostly taken to mean that women are its victims. Nowadays, the question arises whether it is the case that the man is the one who commits such violence. Let us consider this question.
I am looking at two methods only and considering the benefits to the person and the problem.
Revenge: this can be and usually is cathartic. Negative feelings about yourself and the world recede as you have taken action. You do not suffer a sense of victimhood, which may affect your view of yourself, internalising anger and creating self-harm and depression.
Forgiveness: this is passive. By forgiving the other person you resolve the negative effects in yourself and deal with the negative effects towards others. But.....
.....in the first you have not only dealt with the problem but also the repetition of problems. Nevertheless, employing say violence encourages violence, even if that violence is not directed against you. In the second you will likely or possibly remain the victim of further violence. In both instances forgiveness is possible but this works in different ways according to the action taken.
In some of my recent papers, I have demonstrated a return to medieval tropes evident in Russia, the Middle East and indeed the USA, which has been expressed as a return to authoritarianism. I will expand on that as indicating a re-embrace of irrationality whether through strident and implausible nationalism, pogroms, and an increase in state violence and a decline in humanitarian ideologies.
- Do you agree with me that researchers and academics should spread the spirit of love and peace and reject violence and hatred through their academic and research work in educating the new generation so that peace may prevail in all parts of the world and achieve sustainable development, justice and equality?
Canada according to Norimitsu Onsishi and Vjosa Isai ( New York Times, October 5) is becoming a battleground for Indians opposed to Modi and the government of Modi. In their view Modi represents an axis if extreme right-wing leaders that have emerged since the turn of this century and are intent on causing trouble with their countries and outside its borders. The Canadian government has accused Modi of arranging the assassination of a Sikh separatist who fled from India. Critics have claimed that the arrival of Modi and Hindutva have caused increased violence within Indian communities worldwide, which is common whenever ideologies infect societies. Within Indian communities worldwide attempts to reimpose caste discrimination have risen, with violence reported against Dalit communities.
Mt Modi came into power in 2014 and since has promoted a Hindu first, nationalist policy called Hindutva, which especially has tried to reclaim the past, while also providing what appears to be the claims of Islam. My increased knowledge of India indicates a growing nationalism and concentration on Indian exceptionality and of course is a staunch follower of Putin.
Several questions occur:
Will India seek dominance over others as its economy grows (now 5th GDP in the world)? And essentially, why or why not?
Why have right wing political systems become popular?
Is nationalism excusable in other parts of the world, ones which once were subordinated to the west, but one of sticks to beat the West in the past?
Does this prevent negotiation with other countries or allow it, especially with the collapse of the United Nations?
And why right wing societies at all, which have invariably led to violence and millenarianism?
Change happens but there are reasons beyond the obvious. Economic change is one. Identity is an essential part of right wing politics. I, for one, am horrified to see the rise of right wing politics again but others may think differently and it would be good to hear why they believe politics of single states rather than co-operation is growing alongside prejudice towards others and cults of violence.
I am working on a paper about social disorganization and domestic violence. My fixed-effect panel regression result shows that higher racial heterogeneity can significantly contribute to lower domestic violence occurrence. It is not only a significant result but also very robust. The classical hypothesis of social disorganization theory is that higher racial heterogeneity is related to weaker social bonds, and thus higher violence occurrence. How would you interpret it?
Doing my research on violent treatments of enemies and prisoners of war in New Kingdom Egypt I realized that war is closely related to hunt in both textual and visual representations, but also that gender and religion play a big role.
I explored how these ideas are reflected on the treatments of enemies and prisoners of war and realized that in relation to all of the above mentioned ideas enemies and prisoners of war can be dehumanized or feminized through these treatments. Thus, I was wondering if I am dealing here with frames in Butler's terms?
War and its impact. And if anyone want to research on the topic. Please contact with me.
Hi all, please assist me on what statistical analysis I should use. I have 3 DVs (severity of violence, justification of violence and severity of punishment) and 1 IV (gender of perpetrator). I have trouble running my data on SPSS as I cannot select the DVs on it.
To what extent do acts of violence against the killing of the young Franco-Algerian Nael reflect the lack of social cohesion in Franch society?
Silent bullying.....
Many of the articles, shared here on Researchgate, link bullying to violence and aggression.
But bullying can be non-aggressive and non-violent. Are we ignoring/leaving out work on silent and quiet bullying?
What do you think?
Crime and violence have become serious concern of the administration of most countries. It is believed generally that life in prison for a convicted criminal who committed murder is insufficient and that public hanging could create the fear needed to drive a wedge in the escalation of crimes across the globe.
Hi All,
I'm doing a content analysis of news articles covering arrests/reports of intimate partner violence, and the words/phrases used by reporters in their coverage. What are the best FREE tools that can be used (besides Voyant) to track words and frequency, and IDEALLY tone of certain terms and/or sentences used (if this even exists). Although I'm not new to research, I am new to content analysis, so anything helps! Thanks so much.

In developing countries violence is one of the most important determinants of trauma. Some patients recurring this situation are usually implicated in delinquency (or poses history of criminality). Is there any way to measure the degree of criminality in a clinical setting?
Every country runs several welfare programs and schemes still it is seen in large number of countries the poverty is not getting reduced but instead rising . The gap between rich and poor is widening and wealth is getting concentrated. The politicians prime interest seems to be not service of society and welfare but regaining and remaining in power and for which lot of money and muscle is needed. The perquisites given to politicians and bureaucrats are several times more than the per capita income of citizens. There are fundamental structural defects in management of primary economic activities like agriculture and distribution of agriculture products. It seems theories of economics does not work on ground and look good in books. It is need of time to fundamentally alter the political and economic systems in countries and on global level. There are too many association, institutions and welfare organizations who conduct only meeting with little results on grounds. There looks to be strong nexus between capitalist politicians and bureaucrats. Can we identify some basic strategies to ameliorate the situation. The existing social and political systems are failures. A cursory look at various conflicts going on in several country points to possible sponsoring of terrorism and unrest by this powerful political capitalist nexus. After all who is beneficiary of so called religious terrorism and violence ?
Dear community,
OpenAi gave me this link when I asked for an article about Gang violence and freezing responses of gang members:
But the link leads to a completely different article. Can you help me? I am looking for this research here:

I am seeking suggestions / articles about Durkheim, and how he placed violence in his framework. More precisely: articles that question how he would have placed disruptive violence (c.q violence that cannot be placed as a functional within his vision of a cohesive and interdependent societies.) For example: how would he have explained or placed genocide in his school of thoughts?
Hello
Good time
Please suggest the latest and most interesting subject to be investigated in the field of the relationship between climate change and violence in rural areas and among farmers.
Thanks
it is said that the suppression against women can be eradicated once they are educated and occupy the social n professional positions in a powerful way. Is this happening now? Do women are feeling safe or do they treated better or do the violence against them reduced?
otherwise, what will be your personal question when you hear any violence against women.
I am doing a study on attitude towards intimate partner violence My study has 2 variable gender stereotypes and controlling behaviour that affects intimate partner violence. I want to compare gender differences versus cultural differences with respect to the 2 variables mentioned. There are surveys for both the variables. If I do a regression will there a multicolinearity between the gender and culture? Kindly guide with the statistical analysis
I am looking for a publically available video/image dataset from surveillance cameras, which is used to detection if there is violence like fight happened. Also,a dataset from surveillance cameras contains such class also helpful. I have collected UCF-crime, NTU-CCTV dataset, I want to know how to get more datasets like these or how to collect such videos by myself.
Dear, I am aware of literature regarding the correlation between higher level of violence against civilians and foreign fighters presence (for example Bakke 2014, Moore 2019, Doctor and Willingham 2020, Doctor 2021, ...). I was wondering if there is anything that compares (also with qualitative methods) IS foreign fighters and IS local fighters in their relations with the locals in Syria and Iraq.
“Women are in back seated in their family in south Asian countries due to extreme gender stratification and men take the opportunity to control them using their male dominant rural culture. Rural men enjoy their muscle power over their women to prove their supremacy. Violence against women (VAW) starts from the family and women are in silence in most of the cases to avoid further familial disharmony as they have no place to go without any earning opportunity. Empowerment can inspire them more to find their own identity to protect themselves by raising their voices against the violence”.

COVID-19 is changing the social life of all people. Jumping out of the personal aspect, how does it affect the family as a whole.
Family is regarded as the fundamental structure of the society, will COVID-19 changes the future family structure, unit and model?
How is it affecting gender issues too?
Besides, why is domestic violence increasing? Is psychology and psychiatry playing a role?

I continue, even here at the end of 2021, to see research on the mental health and psychosocial wellbeing of people in low- and middle-income countries, led by researchers in high income countries, for which no local collaborator is listed as a co-author. I find this troubling, and feel it lends credence to the view of much of our research as having a colonialist underpinning. If a study reports on help- seeking behavior among displaced people in Country X, or Intimate Partner Violence in Occupied Country Y, or patterns of distress among survivors of violence in Country Z, shouldn't people from the target countries & communities be involved in all aspects of the research, including co-authorship on publications?
Alcohol is associated with many diseases- pancreatic cancer, cirrhosis,etc and also violence, accidents and social breakdown
And yet, many in our Society are able to control their intake. And many abstain for religious reasons.
On balance, is it more harmful than useful?
Is it not time to re-consider its use?
What are your thoughts on this matter?
I am working one a civil war final paper for my graduate course. I am interested in examining the dynamics of Sengal civil war.
First, I will be exploring the root causes of civil war from 1982-2014. What are the difference contexts and greivances that trigger the civil war?
As the main conflict essentially ended in 2014 with a ceasefire, I will then go on to explore how that ceasefire was initiated and access the effectiveness of the stabilization/nation-building elements within this ceasefire period.
However, despite ceasfire in place, low-level violence remains and the problem seems to be unresolved. This leads me to my last part, why the previous ceasefire manage to successfully end the war, but not mitigating the unrest in the region altogether. In other words, why is 2014 ceasefire successful in reducing violence but why the major problems unsolved leading to current low-level violence in Senegal? In short, this last part will explore why 2014 ceasefure is not perfect?
I am urgently in need of literature for that, any form of assistance will be highly appreciated. Thank you!
Hello,
I am conducting empirical research and I am using the world governance indicators, one of them is the one on " political stability and absence of violence terrorism" it measures perceptions of the likelihood that the government will be destabilized or overthrown by unconstitutional or violent means, including politically-motivated violence and terrorism. I am studying a panel fixed effect model between this variable and Tourism and I attached the results.
I am confused about the results; what do I interpret the coefficient of PS " political instability and absence of voice and accountability". Does it measure stability or instability? So a one-unit increase in political instability or a one-unit increase in political stability variable leads to a decrease in tourism?
Interested in ways of beginning research to look at causes of at risk behavior on high crime and violence subculture of Kansas City
Hello,
I am planning to conduct a larger study in a male-dominated/masculine work environment. It will be a survey with several instruments to conduct quantitative research. May I ask for recommendations on surveys about gender equality, attitudes, violence etc.
Thank you,
The Capstone is complete, responses no longer necessary
My graduate capstone is reviewing research on MORAL DISTRESS SYMPTOMS as they apply to (contribute to the emotional state of) police and the contribution it makes to police violence (use of force beyond a threshold).
For example, moral distress from working with child sex abuse material could lead to perceiving everyone as an abuser and influence decision-making.
Police violence is more likely in an officer with compromised decision-making skills (ethically or due to hypervigilance.)
Any research on racism and how it influences this topic is appreciated.
Some judgements in politically sensitive cases have been followed by violence, looting and anarchy in the wider society. Many human lives and property worth billions of dollars are often lost in the ensuing mayhem. Should the social ramifications of incarcerating influential politicians be taken into account? If so, where does that leave the rule of law? Is the rule of law above all possible considerations?
I am working on a research in identifying content that may be inappropriate for kids.
Does someone know how to identify very loud sounds in videos, e.g. violence , screams?
I want to promote peace and non-violence in school and collaborate for such initiative in future.
In his book "Identity and Violence. The Illusion of Destiny" (New York, London 2006), Amartya Sen criticizes the positions contending the existence of cultural identities which completely absorb individual minds and destinies. Sen sees in such positions the danger that cultural identities can be used in order to stir up, in a society, groups against other groups. Identities can represent, in the opinion of Sen, an ideological instrument used to oppress minorities and to gain power over determined groups.
I am looking for some good validated measures to assess endorsement of or acceptance of violence against outgroup members of differing political alignment. Many thanks.
In a published article I outline 6 subtypes of aggression, resulting at times into violence. It is based in part on my experience as an AF ER medic during the Vietnam Conflict, and on my research on combat trauma.
So I am interested in your thoughts and examples of when it is necessary. After collecting a # of responses, I will attach one or two of my published articles.

Dear All,
I am working on designing an gender based violence (GBV) program evaluation tool to measure frequency of violence against men and boys over time. But I could not find any resources on this. Any resource materials would highly recommended.
Thanks
Hi, I would like to know your opinition about this problem that started in the 19th century. What do you think about this several problem: causes, consequences and possible solutions. Thank you!
What do you think about the "mediatization" o entertainment of sexist violence on television?
It is noted that Men show significant lower anxiety, depression, and acute stress levels than women and women present greater severity in symptoms of anxiety, depression, and acute stress. Moreover, loneliness and violence specifically worsen the emotional state in women.kindly put your thoughts in this topic.
Dear Research Community,
We are planning an intervention study to reduce domestic violence. I wonder if you can guide me how to compare the prevalence of violence before and after the intervention in the same sample using SPSS. The samples are clustered and that needs to be taken into consideration.
Thanks in advance!
Dear colleagues, I need your help to reflect on the following questions. I'm engaging in research project concerned about experience of countries in the mechanisms of overcoming violence and divisions in their past politics. All countries have gone through some sort of violent past, how have they reconciled with their past and each other? In cases where they had not established commissions or gone through processes that were explicitly named 'reconciliation', how did they manage to come to state of peace, democracy and development? It is my pleasure also if you can suggest me literature related to this issue.
The interconnected inquiries help me to approach literary Iraqi identity poetics as an integral part of a parallel discourse that is working to unsettle the dominant official 2003 poetry of “Iraqiness” as well as the sectarian essentializations of post-2003 Iraqi society.
How are these literary formulations themselves being reshaped along a sectarian/secular divide? In what capacity can nonviolent resistance through art combat sectarian violence on the ground?
I am currently a student pursuing my B.A in Criminal Justice and I am about to start my final/senior project to be awarded my degree. I would like to focus my research on Juvenile Delinquency/Crime and Violence.
It is not that violence should be considered outside human nature, as clearly it is part of us functioning within a number of contexts both intimate, that is up close, relationship based with, too frequently, partners, coecion by authorities, national security through both offrence and defence.
But....I believe fiercely in pacifism and that only violence can correctly be termed immoral. Behaviour that affects no one adversely is not immoral. Behaviour that annoys neighbours is not immoral but human variety.
But how does a community eliminate violence without using violence?
I am researching political and electoral violence and I need latest electoral violence theories propounded from 2011 to date because all the theories accessible to me are from 2010 and earlier and they will not be accepted by my institution.
Capstone for MS in Forensic Psychology. I am connecting the symptoms of moral distress with the causes of police violence. If research has been conducted in this area, I have not found it. I do not want to miss any recent or current research between the two.
Thank you, and Happy New Year!
Violence against women is a major public health problem.
Studies indicate that about 1 in 3 (35%) of women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence or non-partner sexual violence in their lifetime. Women are more likely to experience intimate partner violence if they have low education, exposure to mothers being abused by a partner, abuse during childhood, and attitudes accepting violence, male privilege, and women’s subordinate status.
At you workplace, as a medical care member, you notice domestic violence against a woman. What is your duty in this situation?
The school is one of the most important contexts of socialization, through the dynamics that take place in it we can be transmitting and repeating useful violence, it is necessary to become aware of how that happens in order to change it.
I am looking for the most recent scientific findings concerning attitudes of religious groups towards the relations within a family (equality, subordination, pshysical violence toward wife or children, reasons for divorce, etc.), possibly after 2015. Collecting material for a new textbook.
The Management of Aggression and Violence Attitude Scale (MAVAS) was used to identify staff perceptions about the causes and management of aggression and violence. Previous research has validated the 30-item MAVAS in comparing the views of mental health nurses and psychiatric in-patients as to the causes and management of patient aggression and violence.
Despite well-established validity and reliability in the inpatient mental health setting, the psychometric properties of the MAVAS have not been evaluated in the emergency department (ED) setting. A study explored and compared the attitudes held by staff and patients in a forensic mental health service about aetiology and management of aggression and violence reported very little overlap between their findings and the proposed four-factor structure.
Furthermore, the original survey questions were designed for a mental health setting where seclusion was used, however seclusion is not used in EDs. To ensure the MAVAS is applicable in the ED setting, we had replaced the word ‘seclusion’ with ‘security’ in three items of the MAVAS. We have also changed the scale from a 100-mm visual analogue scale to a 4-point Likert Scale (1=Strongly agree, 4=Strong disagree).
We would like to test the factor structure of the MAVAS tool within a new population (ED service users and staff) in order to verify its factor validity in this population. A confirmatory factor analysis on the ED staff and consumers sample is planned to assess the reliability of the modified version of MAVAS in the ED setting. But we don't have AMOS, can we do this analysis using SPSS or other softwares? What is the best way to test the factor structure? Thanks!
Is it possible to increase the aggressiveness of the subject due to the creative nature of his activity? Is there a correlation between creativity and aggressive behavior from a neuroscience perspective? What kind of research would you recommend on this topic?
I have a checklist consisting of dichotomous items (Yes/No). I want to know how to interpret the results (when in percentages). For example, 45% of females and 40% of males have experienced the violence of the conflict. Now, could I interpret it as females have experienced significantly higher violence than males?
Is there any standardized criteria for interpretation of such results which are in percentages?
It would be a great help...
I'm currently developing a project looking at instances of cultural and symbolic violence towards nature, whether this creates/contributes to stigma, and how it compares to, or causes, physical violence (i.e farming of livestock, crushing insects due to fear). Particularly interested in snakes and spiders as used to symbolise an evil, violent, or manipulative trait in a human, or other sentient antagonistic force in a piece of fiction.
Seeking to answer questions such as:
Is our use of certain creatures to represent these things in any way unethical?
What does symbolic violence towards 'strange' creatures indicate about our tendencies to do this with differential prejudice towards humans? And is challenging symbolic violence towards living creatures necessary on all levels to combat it between human groups?
So, does anyone have recommendations for reading on this? And, are there any available studies analysing the impact of nature representation on societal approach to specific animals?
Thanks,
Connor
I have reviewed some articles, for example from Anderson and Bushnam (2002,2017) on the subject. Generally, it is stated that "violence is a form of extreme aggressiveness".
I do not agree with this differentiation. Considers that violence is a form of aggressiveness with an instrumental and planned nature. I would like to know your opinion
He revisado algunos artículos, por ejemplo de Anderson y Bushnam (2002,2017) sobre el tema. En general, se afirma que "la violencia es una forma de extrema agresividad".
No estoy de acuerdo con esta diferenciación. Considera que la violencia es una forma de agresividad de naturaleza instrumental y planificada
