By conducting a thematic analysis of YouTube "storytime" videos, she shines a light on ADV experiences from the voices of female survivors who are now adults. Throughout the episode, Jennifer discusses her method of selecting and analyzing YouTube videos, preferring this platform for its personal and detailed accounts over other social media sites like Twitter and Reddit. Her keen insights reveal how peer influences and familial relationships play significant roles in the maintenance of abusive adolescent relationships. Particularly concerning is the lack of impactful bystander intervention and the failure of friends and family members to recognize and address the abuse effectively, which often perpetuates the cycle of violence. Jennifer and Shaylyn delve into the broader implications of her findings, emphasizing the need for better education on the nuanced signs of intimate partner violence. They advocate for increased awareness and support systems within schools and communities to teach young people about healthy boundaries and coercive control.

The Link Between Dark Personalities and Intimate Partner Violence with Christie Tetreault 24:55

منذ 34 weeks24:55

In this episode of the Resolving Violence podcast, host Shaylyn White continues her illuminating conversation with guest Christie Tetreault. This episode is the second part of a 2-part feature focusing on dark personalities and intimate partner violence (IPV). The conversation picks up where it left off, delving into the myths surrounding IPV and how they relate to dark personality traits. Christie starts by highlighting the various definitions of IPV adopted in research and teaching, emphasizing the importance of including psychological aggression and coercive acts in these definitions. The dialogue underscores that IPV is not unidirectional and challenges the common misconception that men are always the perpetrators and women the victims. A clarification note from the guest: " I think my answer [to the last question] wasn’t as clear as it could have been because I was trying to think of how to be specific without tipping off potential perpetrators from figuring out the protocols that are in place in Canada and elsewhere. For example, in Ireland, what front line workers do is they mark a person’s file in a specific way if partner abuse is expected. I asked if this was also done for men, and I was told no because “men are never victims,” which of course is not accurate. Canadian front line workers also have a protocol for female victims who go to doctors’ office or ERs when the front-line workers suspect they may be victims of abuse. If you wouldn’t believe a woman is just clumsy and got hurt by falling into a door when the injuries are not consistent with that story, then it is important to have the same suspicions if men or anyone regardless of gender identity comes to the ER with those same excuses that are inconsistent with their injuries or are repeatedly coming in. It’s important to remember people who identify as women underreport their abuse and people who identify as men underreport their abuse even more and are even less likely to ask for help. So, what I would say is that same protocol and mindset needs to be used for everyone regardless of gender identification and sexual orientation to try to end the bias that is happening in services around Canada and the world.

Understanding the Nuances of Dark Personalities with Christie Tetreault 29:42

منذ 35 weeks29:42

In part one of a special two-part series, we explore the intricate world of dark personalities with our special guest, Christie Tetreault, a postdoctoral fellow in forensic psychology. Christie provides an enlightening discussion on the social construction of dark personalities and emphasizes the need for nuanced understanding and individualized interventions. She breaks down the traits associated with the dark triad and the dark tetrad, highlighting how these characteristics manifest and overlap yet do not necessarily meet the clinical threshold for personality disorders. She also underscores the importance of bridging the gap between researchers and practitioners to foster a more accurate and effective approach to intervention. A significant portion of the conversation centers around the misconceptions perpetuated by popular culture, where characters like Hannibal Lecter and Norman Bates shape our understanding of psychopathy in misleading ways. Christie elaborates on how these portrayals are often based on real individuals, like Ed Gein, who was found not criminally responsible based on insanity rather than being diagnosed as a psychopath. These distortions lead to widespread misconceptions that contribute to issues in interventions and treatment programs. Throughout this special two-part series, Christie also delves into fascinating research findings, such as the link between sadistic tendencies and cyberbullying. She explains how individuals high in sadism derive pleasure from the suffering of others, making them more likely to engage in such harmful behaviors. Her exploration extends to the concept of "sleeper personalities," which are traits held in check by societal norms but can emerge aggressively in toxic situations like genocides and military massacres.

In this week’s episode of Resolving Violence, Shaylyn White welcomes guests Karen Wood and Jonathan Ballantyne to discuss the impactful "3 Videos Project." Born out of a profound need for conflict resolution resources among families in Canadian prairie communities, this project focuses on creating training videos featuring Indigenous men as a violence prevention resource. The origin story unfolds as Karen and Jonathan narrate a compelling timeline that includes collaborative efforts with various community partners, such as PAWS and RESOLVE, as well as the invaluable participation of elders and cultural healing practitioners from Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation. Their efforts were met with support from the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation to address gender-based violence on the prairies. As the discussion progresses, Jonathan and Karen delve into the nuanced process of creating these videos, highlighting the importance of cultural relevance and community ownership. Jonathan talks fondly about his unique spaghetti scenario, a humorous yet impactful way to illustrate conflict resolution and the everyday realities of relationships. Karen adds depth by explaining how the inclusion of elders’ stories and the careful adherence to OCAP (Ownership, Control, Access, and Possession) principles ensured the project's integrity and lasting impact. It becomes evident that this project was not just about creating videos but fostering a safe and productive environment for men to explore and resolve conflicts. As the episode concludes, Karen and Jonathan reflect on the project’s broader implications and their hopes for its future use. They emphasize the importance of simplicity and comfort in healing processes, which are mirrored in the way these videos are intended to be used - as supportive, engaging tools rather than prescriptive lectures. With an earnest appeal for understanding oneself and the value of communication in relationships, they provide valuable insights for service providers working with at-risk populations. This episode encapsulates the dedication, strategy, and heartfelt effort that went into the 3 Videos Project, shedding light on practical steps to resolve violence and promote healing within communities. About Our Guests: Jonathan Ballantyne is a dedicated practitioner in conflict resolution with over two decades of experience working with families and individuals, specifically within the Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation.
