Self-care for gender-based violence researchers - Beyond bubble baths and chocolate pralines

Philipp Schulz et al.

Summary: Researching sensitive topics has immediate effects on researchers, but discussions about the emotional and psychological impacts of this type of research are rare. Recent debates have emerged about the toll that qualitative field-based research on violence, particularly gender-based violence, can have on researchers. Existing support and self-care strategies are primarily tailored towards practitioners and fail to consider the unique challenges and long-term nature of vicarious traumatization faced by researchers. In this article, the authors propose relational and collaborative approaches to coping with the emotional and psychological toll of gender-based violence research, emphasizing the importance of relationships and collaborations in the absence of structural support and care.

Impact of social protection on gender equality in low- and middle-income countries: A systematic review of reviews

Camila Perera et al.

Summary: This systematic review examines the gender-differentiated impacts of social protection programmes in low and middle-income countries. The review synthesizes evidence from systematic reviews on the outcomes of various types of social protection programmes. The findings suggest that social protection programmes tend to have higher impacts on women and girls compared to men and boys. However, there is a need for further research on social care programmes and other areas to fully understand their impact on gender equality outcomes.

A scoping review of the healthcare provided by nurses to people experiencing domestic violence in primary health care settings

Hassan Abdulrahman H. Aljomaie et al.

Summary: Domestic and family violence is a growing public health concern, and nurses, as the primary healthcare providers, play a crucial role in identifying and supporting individuals experiencing such violence. However, studies have shown variations in the educational and organizational support provided to nurses, which impact their ability to effectively respond to domestic and family violence. Given the increased prevalence of domestic violence during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need to better equip nurses in recognizing and responding to these situations.

Intersectionality and Invisible Victims: Reflections on Data Challenges and Vicarious Trauma in Femicide, Family and Intimate Partner Homicide Research

Patricia Cullen et al.

Summary: Rigorous, comprehensive, and timely research is essential for social and transformative change. Researchers studying femicide, family, and intimate partner homicide face challenges in accessing robust and representative data, as well as concerns about emotional labor and safety. The privileging of certain social identities and the impact of intersectionality on research are key issues to be addressed to strengthen research efforts and ensure safety for all involved.

Of wine and whiteboards: Enacting feminist reflexivity in collaborative research

Non-financial conflict of interest in social intervention trials and systematic reviews: An analysis of the issues with case studies and proposals for management

Paul Montgomery et al.

Summary: Research suggests that effect sizes tend to be larger when studies are conducted by program developers compared to independent researchers, which could be attributed to conflicts of interest. While financial conflicts of interest are commonly acknowledged, non-financial conflicts of interest are subtler and less reported, yet just as likely to introduce bias. The complexity of identifying and addressing non-financial conflicts of interest remains an ongoing challenge in the field of social and behavioral intervention research.
