Accumulating US studies reveal gender inequities in youth violence research. Understanding how girls and young women perceive and experience violence is crucial for improving youth health. This mixed-methods study incorporates violence surveys and arts-based methods to examine their experiences. The arts-based methods provide additional knowledge and are trauma-informed and assets-based.
Accumulating US studies indicate gender inequities in youth violence research and responses. Improving youth health thus requires greater understanding of how girls and young women perceive and experience violence, and gathering such data demands research methods that are trauma-informed and assets-based. This mixed-methods study addresses these dual needs. To support gender equity in youth violence research, it incorporated 4 violence surveys and 3 arts-based methods to examine girls' and young women's experiences and perceptions of violence. Then, to advance trauma-informed, assets-based research, it used study findings to generate an assessment of all methods employed. Results are presented in a 2-part article, with Part I (published separately) conveying findings about the population's experiences, needs, and assets related to violence and safety. Part II (here) details the development of the arts-based methods, assesses them alongside the surveys, and compares the effectiveness of all methods. Despite overlap across methods, the arts-based strategies offered critical knowledge that was missed by surveys, including actionable data about the population's priorities, experiences, and recommendations. The arts-based methods were also trauma-informed and offered reciprocity via assets-based, community-centered programs and platforms. This study provides justification and a template for further integration of creative practices into research, and for continued innovation to advance access, data quality, and health equity.
