SamenvattingAuteursinformatie

    Whether it is the topic of everyday conversation, a political debate or scientific discussion: it is evident that fear of crime can be understood and examined in a variety of ways. This creates inconsistencies in the interpretation of the concept, which can hinder research into fear of crime and the design of interventions. In the past, researchers have developed classifications to better understand fear of crime. The current article aims to come to an updated and integrated classification and supplementary table of classification, within which new insights from the fear of crime literature are incorporated, to further our understanding of the concept. This classification is subsequently applied as a tool. We show how our classification can help design new research, better understand previous research and create an overview of the knowledge on fear of crime. We furthermore show how the classification can be used by policy makers to better understand and address societal challenges related to fear of crime.

Hulpverlening aan slachtoffers van huiselijk geweld door Slachtofferhulp Nederland: een verkenning op basis van CBS-data

Trefwoorden domestic violence, support, follow-up help, Victim Support Netherlands, National Statistical Institute in the Netherlands
Auteurs Janne van Doorn, Pauline Aarten, Maarten Kunst e.a.
SamenvattingAuteursinformatie

    The present study concerns an exploration of the nature and extent of support provided by Victim Support Netherlands (in Dutch: SHN) in the event of domestic violence, using microdata obtained from the National Statistical Institute in the Netherlands. More specifically, it provides insight into the referral to Victim Support Netherlands (by an external party, the police, or on the victim’s own initiative), whether victims receive follow-up support within SHN, and what the (demographic) predictors are for the follow-up support. Results show that of the small group of domestic violence victims who report to SHN, three quarters receive follow-up help from SHN. In addition, the chance of receiving follow-up help was greater for women than for men, and smaller for victims whose parent(s) have a migration background and in the case of multiple types of domestic violence. Moreover, the main form of help seems to be receiving information and legal assistance. Insights into victim characteristics and types of assistance at Victim Support Netherlands contribute to a better understanding of the reach of support agencies and can therefore be used to make recommendations about the formal aid and support offered to victims of domestic violence.

Recht doen aan de behoeften van cybercrimeslachtoffers: reflecties op de rol van de politie

Trefwoorden behoeften, meldingservaringen, cybercrime, slachtoffers, politiefunctie
Auteurs Jildau Borwell, Jurjen Jansen en Wouter Stol
SamenvattingAuteursinformatie

    Rising cybercrime rates present challenges for the police, often resulting in limited investment in cybercrime cases. These challenges can extend to the relationship with reporting victims. Also, the characteristics of cybercrime, such as anonymity and technical complexity, could lead to distinct victim needs. This study examines the needs and reporting experiences of cybercrime compared to traditional crime victims. We focused on financial (bank account hacking; bank helpdesk fraud) and person-centered (online threat; image-based sexual abuse); and financial (home burglary; doorstep deception) cybercrime, and person-centered (threat; sexual assault) traditional crime.
    In our survey study, we analysed the responses of 910 reporting victims. Our findings show that cyber-financial crime victims express stronger practical/information needs, namely where to turn for help, information about the crime, financial compensation and prevention advice. They also express greater emotional/social needs, namely for recognition of the crime and prevention for others. Conversely, victims of traditional person-centered crimes express stronger emotional/social needs for recognition of the crime, being taken seriously, sharing feelings and prevention for others. Reporting experiences were similar among cyber and traditional financial crime victims. However, receiving information about the crime and prevention advice were rated higher among person-centered traditional crime compared to cybercrime victims, and they less strongly reported increasing impact because of the police response.
    The study confirms that victims of both cyber and traditional crimes have needs across all categories. Furthermore, we have identified factors such as peritraumatic stress, age, gender, and financial loss that influence these needs. We discuss the implications for law enforcement, emphasizing the necessity of addressing victim needs comprehensively, particularly in financial cybercrime cases where victims express stronger needs but generally receive less practical and emotional support. Additionally, we stress the importance of procedural justice and responsiveness to victim needs in maintaining police legitimacy.
