“…We also recommend that sexual violence prevention efforts are tailored to the experiences of sexual and gender minoritized people, with a particular emphasis on bi+ people. As an example of work in this area that is also consistent with the ESTEEM model, Johnson et al (2021) utilized methods of feminist consciousness-raising and prosocial bystander intervention to adapt a rape prevention program to be effective and culturally appropriate for LGBTQ+ college students. This model integrated participant feedback regarding how factors such as power, discrimination, and rape myths specific to LGBTQ+ community, among other factors, to develop a prevention program responsive to LGBTQ+ student needs.…”

“…Further, EAAA is continually under development to reach more communities; for example, EAAA has been modified to address the needs of Indigenous people in New Zealand (Beres et al, 2019). Another approach to tailoring interventions to the needs of bi+ people is the consciousness-raising adaptation pioneered by Johnson et al (2021). Finally, future research should quantitatively investigate the identified theoretical model of sexual violence vulnerability described above.…”

Young sexual minoritized people report elevated rates of sexual violence in comparison with their heterosexual peers. This health disparity is largest among lesbian and bisexual people, and in particular bisexual women. We know little about what drives this health disparity, which is critically necessary information for developing effective sexual violence interventions. Recently, sexual stigma has been identified as an important factor related to sexual victimization among sexual minoritized people. The current article details a concurrent mixed-method study investigating what factors contribute to young lesbian and bisexual people's vulnerability for experiencing sexual violence, and in particular the similarities and differences between these two groups. We conducted a survey with 328 participants to investigate the quantitative relationships between sexual stigma and experience of sexual violence. A subset of 25 survey participants with a history of sexual victimization also engaged in qualitative interviews about their experience of violence. Primary quantitative findings indicate that sexual stigma significantly predicts a greater likelihood of reporting an experience of sexual violence among bisexual people, and to a lesser degree, lesbian people. Qualitative findings support the development of a theoretical model that describes how intersectional experiences of marginalization across individual, interpersonal, and societal levels interact to increase vulnerability for sexual violence. Public Significance StatementIn this study, we found that sexual stigma, meaning the negative attitudes and discriminatory behaviors based on privileging heterosexuality, was significantly associated with a greater likelihood of experiencing sexual violence for young bisexual people. We also identified that the sexual identityspecific factors, like sexual stigma, interacted with general factors, like decreased access to resources, to increase participants' vulnerability for sexual violence. Taken together, we believe that attention to sexual stigma, and in particular how sexual stigma impacts other areas of sexual minoritized people's lives, is critical to developing effective sexual violence prevention efforts for sexual minoritized people.

“…The initial round of analysis examining extent of PD application revealed large diversity in PD approaches used in primary and secondary youth SVA prevention. Approaches ranged from formative research, including interviews, focus groups, and consultations (Banyard et al, 2007; Boduszek et al, 2019; Fredland et al, 2005; Itzhaky & York, 2001; Johnson et al, 2019) to collaborative partnerships with stakeholders (Crooks et al, 2018; Murray, 2019) to usability and prototype testing with users (Jozkowski & Ekbia, 2015; Potter et al, 2019, 2020) to train-the-trainer models (Baker et al, 2014), CBPR (Fredland, 2010; Ravi, Black, et al, 2019; Ravi et al, 2018; Ravi, Mitschke, et al, 2019; Reddock et al, 2020; Reid et al, 2014; Richmond et al, 2008), and Y/PAR based approaches (Beatriz et al, 2018; Stokar et al, 2017). Following this initial round of inductive analysis, extent of PD application was further elucidated according to the ‘who, when, how, and why’ of participant and stakeholder involvement.…”

Youth sexual violence and abuse (SVA) are leading public health and human rights issues around the world. Prevention is key to reducing SVA rates and minimising resultant harms. Despite advocacy for more collaborative approaches, knowledge of how to effectively engage young people and key stakeholders in the design, implementation, and evaluation of SVA prevention programs is limited. This mixed-methods systematic review aimed to synthesise available evidence on participatory design (PD) application in primary and secondary SVA prevention targeting young people. A systematic search was executed across seven electronic databases. Eligible studies were peer-reviewed, published in English, reported primary or secondary SVA prevention, described application of PD or a related approach, and targeted young people aged 12–25 years. Quality was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Overall, 20 articles reporting 15 studies were included. Most (55%; n = 11) employed a qualitative design. Descriptions, methods, and scope of PD application varied across included studies. A lack of empirical evaluations prevented conclusions regarding the utility of PD application in terms of measured outcomes. The methodology, agent of change, training, and engagement (MATE) taxonomy was subsequently developed to describe and classify PD application. As illustrated in the MATE taxonomy, PD methods promoting agency, encouraging input, and facilitating empowerment are likely to facilitate more meaningful engagement of participants. Integration of participant and expert views, community consultation, and appropriate socio-cultural adaption appear to be critical determinants of program acceptability and feasibility. Empirical evaluations are needed to assess the relative utility of PD methods in line with SVA prevention objectives.
