This study examined intimate partner stalking experienced by 196 mothers stalked by the father of their children. Respondents completed a questionnaire concerning experiences of stalking and level of support by the authorities. Results revealed higher rates of harassing than violent stalking. In many cases, the children were also targeted by the stalking. Encounters with several agencies were common, but respondents were often not recognized as victims of stalking and demoralized by extensive case proceedings. This study calls for a special sensitivity of professionals encountering stalked parents in their work and highlights a need for coordination and cooperation among multiple agencies.
本研究调查了196名受其孩子父亲跟踪骚扰的母亲所经历的亲密伴侣跟踪骚扰情况。受访者填写了一份关于跟踪骚扰经历及当局支持程度的问卷。结果显示,骚扰性跟踪骚扰的发生率高于暴力性跟踪骚扰。在许多情况下,孩子也成为跟踪骚扰的目标。与多个机构接触很常见,但受访者往往不被视为跟踪骚扰的受害者,且冗长的案件程序使其士气低落。本研究呼吁专业人员在工作中对遭遇跟踪骚扰的父母保持特别的敏感度,并强调多个机构之间需要协调与合作。
