ABSTRACT

This chapter is a celebration of the outputs of three separate studies conducted in years three, four and five of the course. The two studies reported are combined and reflective, written by two students from different years who previously did not know each other. They were involved in a study on behalf of the organisation Rape Crisis. In 2014, students analysed existing survey data for Rape Crisis and the second year 2015, other students conducted unstructured interviews with stakeholder organisations that referred persons to Rape Crisis. The intrigue with these Rape Crisis studies is how absorbed the students were in working for Rape Crisis and the mortification that their findings could, if true, potentially harm the organisation. Rape Crisis' hunch that there was something amiss in the way doctors for sexual abuse care (DSAC) referred people was correct but upon further analysis this finding flawed us. Kayla and Morgan's article was submitted for publication and rebuffed as a major revision.
