Tangled Webs: A Test of Routine Activities Theory to Explain Nonconsensual Pornography Victimization

Henriksen, Caitlin B

Abstract Details

2020, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services: Criminal Justice.
In recent years, the phenomenon of nonconsensual pornography, and more specifically “revenge porn”, has become front-page news. The tragic outcomes, including several suicides by young people, have become well known. However, very little research has been done into the prevalence of nonconsensual pornography or the predictors of victimization. This dissertation seeks to fill this gap. First, this research examines the actual prevalence of nonconsensual pornography victimization among a sample of college undergraduates from two large Midwestern and Southern universities. This dissertation attempts to apply the lifestyle routine activities framework to explain nonconsensual pornography victimization. Results from this dissertation show moderate support for applying this framework to explain nonconsensual pornography victimization. Finally, this dissertation provides suggestions for future research, as well as implications for the lifestyle routine activities approach and prevention of nonconsensual pornography.
