**## INSTRUCTIONS.docx**

**Instructions:**

Read the article attached and answer the 6 questions below. There is no specific page limit, but the answers
**MUST** be
**single-spaced WITHIN each answer, with a double space BETWEEN each answer.** **MUST** be typed, with
**1” margins throughout the document. 12-point, Times New Roman Font**.

**Scott-Storey, Kelly. 2011. “Cumulative Abuse: Do Things Add up? An Evaluation of the Conceptualization, Operationalization, and Methodological Approaches in the Study of the Phenomenon of Cumulative Abuse.”**
**_Trauma, Violence, and Abuse_ 12(3): 135-150.**

Rather than focusing on the
_results_ of the study, we are more concerned with the front-end (
**conceptualization/operationalization) procedures** used by the authors in their research. This should be written in a manner that reflects a solid adherence to the conventions of the English language (i.e., free of egregious grammatical/spelling errors), and answer the questions correctly.

1. Based on your reading of the article, how does abuse, in its various forms, impact women’s health?

2. According to the author, what are some of the primary problems with regard to the current conceptualization/operationalization of “abuse”, specifically as it pertains to women’s health? (
_hint: students should keep in mind that this could be related to the fact that we don’t have a consensus on the manner in which this term is to be conceptualized._)

a. In other words, why do the authors argue for a separate indicator of “cumulative abuse”, as opposed to single or isolated forms of abuse?

3. Why does the manner in which abuse is operationalized of relevance? In particular, what are the consequences of this, and how might different operationalization/measurement strategies have objective, identifiable impacts on women’s health?

4. How has the empirical conceptualization of “abuse” changed over time, Related to questions #2-3, how does the author attempt to move in the direction of providing a more valid conceptualization of abuse, if at all?

5. In a very quick, rudimentary fashion, briefly discuss how you would conceptualize/operationalize cumulative abuse. Regarding operationalization, provide some ideas as to the indicators you would use in measuring this construct. Would you use more than one dimension of abuse? Why or why not?

6. In closing, discuss how this study underscores the importance of conceptualization and operationalization in criminological/criminal justice research – particularly as it pertains to meaningful outcomes like the consequences of abuse, in its many forms.
