IntroductionA recent cohort study in the Netherlands and Belgium showed that 38% of children experienced psychological violence, 11% physical violence, and 14% sexual violence in sport (Vertommen et al., 2016). This study aims to explore the long-term consequences on anxiety, depression and somatic complaints in adults who experienced psychological, physical or sexual violence in the specific context of organized youth sport.MethodsA web survey in a representative sample of adults, prescreened on having participated in organized sport before the age of 18 (n = 4043) was conducted. In this sample, depression, anxiety and somatic problems were assessed using the brief symptom inventory. A generalized linear model was used to quantify the impact of experiencing severe interpersonal violence in sport on psychopathology.ResultsAll three types of severe interpersonal violence (psychological, physical and sexual) were significantly associated with the total score and the subscales of the brief symptom inventory. The effect remains significant after controlling for socio-demographics, as well as disability, sexual orientation, adverse childhood experiences outside sport, recent trauma and family history of psychological problems.ConclusionsExperiencing interpersonal violence against in youth sport is associated with mental health problems in adulthood. This is an important finding to consider in child protection policy in sport.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract Background Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can have knowledge gaps regarding their disease and its management, which may lead to anxiety and reduced quality of life. They often use social media as a tool to seek information and manage their chronic disease. The goal of this study was to develop a series of educational videos optimized for social media that are informed by patient insights and address their experiences, concerns, and unmet educational needs. Methods We used a human-centered design approach to guide our qualitative data collection and analysis. We performed two focus groups and 6 semi-structured interviews with patients with IBD to gain insights into their educational needs and expectations regarding these videos. In total, 19 patients with diverse demographic profiles and varying health and digital literacy levels were included in our purposive sample. The collected data was transcribed and analyzed using a thematic analysis. We visualized patients’ thoughts, feelings, and needs in an empathy map. The mapping process helped us create a shared understanding of patient-users, and generate ideas on the topic and the script of each video. Subsequently, 5 video prototypes were built and tested by 22 patients with IBD. The collected feedback was used to refine the prototypes and develop the final videos. Results We noted conflicting thoughts and feelings towards online information; on one hand, IBD-related online information was perceived as overwhelming and unreliable, but on the other it was empowering and helpful. Five major themes for the video topics also emerged from the analyses (Figure 1). First, patients noted a major need to learn about the risks and benefits associated with available treatment options. Participants expressed concerns regarding starting biologics, biologics side-effects and long-term effectiveness. Second, they accentuated the need to know how to be self-advocates in order to navigate their insurance and to obtain the information they need from their providers. Third, they mentioned the importance of learning ways to stay healthy beyond just medical therapy. Fourth, they wanted information on how to cope with their IBD diagnosis and live with their condition. Fifth, participants expressed desire for a video that educates their families, friends and colleagues about IBD, so that they can better understand IBD patients’ psychological and physical experiences. Conclusion We used a human centered qualitative approach to get an in-depth understanding of IBD patients’ educational needs, thoughts and feelings. A series of focus groups and interviews were performed with patients, which informed the development of 5 educational videos that are tailored to suit their needs. In the next phases of this study, the videos will be formally tested and widely disseminated through social media.

Social media thuggery is displayed in a verbal form, namely the word contained. Social media thuggery happens not because it is intentional, like bullying and ridiculing each other on social media, when there is an argument on social media in the form of discussion or status war in comments, even though there is no physical violence but the social media war can be legal, if one party feels disadvantaged. keywords: Phenomenon, Instagram, Thuggery, Lambe Turah

Harmonizing national laws to protect children online with international standards is key to providing the right tools for law enforcement in dealing with child sex crimes. In the child protection survey in the digital era in ASEAN member countries, it appears that Indonesia still needs improvement in terms of legal instruments related to child protection in the context of regulations and policies in making child protection mechanisms in the virtual realm in accordance with global commitments in which Indonesia is member of several international organizations.

When the hashtag #metoo began to circulate in digital and social media, it challenged a familiar interpretation of those who are raped or sexually harassed as victims, positioning women as embodied agents. Yet, almost exactly a year after the #metoo movement shot to visible prominence, a different, though eerily similar, story began to circulate on the same multi-media platforms as #metoo: a story about white male victimhood. Powerful men in positions of privilege (almost always white) began to take up the mantle of victimhood as their own, often claiming to be victims of false accusations of sexual harassment and assault by women. Through the analysis of five public statements by highly visible, powerful men who have been accused of sexual violence, I argue that the discourse of victimhood is appropriated not by those who have historically suffered but by those in positions of patriarchal power. Almost all of the statements contain some sentiment about how the accusation (occasionally acknowledging the actual violence) ‘ruined their life’, and all of the statements analyzed here center the author, the accused white man, as the key subject in peril and the authors position themselves as truth-tellers about the incidents. These statements underscore certain shifts in the public perception of sexual violence; the very success of the #metoo movement in shifting the narrative has meant that men have had to defend themselves more explicitly in public. In order to wrestle back a hegemonic gender stability, these men take on the mantle of victimhood themselves.

Military sexual violence (MSV) is a prevalent issue that uniquely affects mission readiness. Although research on MSV and social media is growing, examinations of possible interventions like those employing social media in this population are scant. Given the growing interest in targeting MSV, the present systematic review was conducted. The PRISMA framework was used to conduct a systematic review of MSV and social media ( N = 71). Queries were limited to articles published between 2010 and 2020. SAGE Journals, PubMed, and JSTOR were utilized. Terms and potential combinations were entered into the databases in varying Boolean combinations. Additional recorders were identified for inclusion via the reference sections of relevant records. After removing duplicates from the query results, we selected records of suspected relevance by title and screened abstracts. Finally, articles with relevant abstracts were reviewed thoroughly to determine whether they met inclusion criteria for the review. The employments of military leaders in a social media intervention puts into practice the military’s central values and development of its leadership core. This intervention promotes group solidarity while maximizing conversations around meaningful messages. Findings in this review suggest military leaders could feasibly employ a cost-effective global intervention using social media, as a tool to help actively address MSV.

The study was an attempt to identify demographic, household, and women empowerment factors that predicted emotional, physical, and sexual violence in ever-married women of reproductive age (15–49 years, n = 3,965) in Pakistan by performing secondary analysis on Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey, 2017–2018. The analysis was done using SPSS (v.22) and binary and multivariate logistic regression techniques were performed for analyses. The analysis found that 30.2% of women experienced emotional, 24.1% reported less severe physical, 6.5% experienced severe physical, and 4.3% experienced sexual violence, respectively. The multivariate analysis found that husband’s age, education, wealth, and alcohol consumption were significant predictors of intimate partner violence (IPV). Additionally, womens’ age, education, and number of children also significantly predicted IPV. With respect to empowerment variables, ownership of house was a significant predictor of less severe physical violence, ownership of property significantly predicted emotional violence, and autonomy in household purchase decisions was significantly related to severe physical violence. The control on husband’s income as a measure of empowerment significantly predicted all four types of IPV. Belief in patriarchy also turned out to be an important factor in determining emotional and less severe physical violence. The study concludes that women empowerment in household context can prevent less serious forms of violence but to hinder serious forms of violence, interventions at family and community level will be required.
