| 요약 | Approximately one in four women in the United States have been raped, physically assaulted, or stalked by an intimate partner. Many victims who have experienced intimate partner violence turn to civil protection orders as one of their main legal recourses to protect themselves. Through mixed methods, three separate studies examine civil protection orders from the perspective of judges, victims, and legal professionals who assist victims in applying for civil protection orders. The first study uses interviews with paralegals, attorneys, and intake workers to investigate the consequences of workers' exposure to trauma when assisting victims. Many participants describe the experience of listening to victims' traumatic narratives or coworkers' accounts of difficult cases as being covered or "slimed" because of its lasting emotional impact. More experienced workers who provided emotional support to less experienced colleagues experience greater exposure to traumatic material. Workers either attempt to find ways to cope or carry the trauma with them. I introduce the concept of trauma transference to highlight the relationship between role-taking and vicarious trauma. In this study, workers best able to empathetically engage with victims or their fellow coworkers are also those most likely to experience the costs of caring by having others' trauma transferred to themselves. In the second study, I code and analyze 1,400 civil protection order cases to examine judges' decision-making. Judges have great autonomy when deciding whether to grant protection orders and which provisions are provided in the order. In this study, male victims are significantly less likely to receive protection orders, and this is particularly true in nonmetropolitan counties, even after controlling for relevant legal factors such as recency or severity of abuse. The third study examines how victims' experiences of abuse are at odds with the rationalizations they provide when dropping their secured orders. Female victims who had experienced recent incidents of abuse, physical abuse, and were currently in a relationship with their abuser when they filed for the protection order are significantly more likely to drop their protection orders. I also examine how victims rationalize their decision to drop their protection orders. Victims make references to wanting to save the marriage, get back together, or to work out their issues. These rationalizations are often at odds with the fear and abuse victims described in their initial petitions for protection orders. |
