Emily F. Rothman – författare

Addressing the critical issue of adolescent dating violence, this comprehensive volume in the Advances in Psychotherapy series provides mental health professionals with the essential tools for recognizing, assessing, and treating victims and perpetrators. The authors expertly explore the diagnostic guidelines, theories, and treatment options, with a focus on those most at risk for dating violence - youth aged 10-24 years. Emphasizing a gender-inclusive and intersectional approach, the text challenges common myths and provides evidence-based recommendations for several effective interventions that can be used in schools and correctional institutions. A detailed case example offers insights into the different aspects of assessment, treatment, and client and school follow-up. This book equips clinical psychologists, child psychologists, educational and school psychologists, forensic psychologists, and students with the latest research and practical resources to respond to adolescent dating violence with care and urgency.

Pornography, also known as sexually explicit material intended to cause sexual arousal, has been hailed by many as a growing public health crisis. Multiple states have now passed resolutions declaring pornography a harm to individual and collective health for inciting epidemics of sexual assault, human trafficking, and compulsive use. But research on the impact of pornography reveals a complicated story behind the straightforward narrative of abuse, including the repression of sex positive materials in the pursuit of pornographic containment.Pornography and Public Health uses a rigorous evidence-based approach to explore the positive and negative effects of pornography on public health, revealing how pornography came to be considered a public health crisis despite the lack of US governmental support. While pornographic content varies widely, this book provides a holistic overview of the people who view pornography, what they are most likely to see, how content has changed over time, and how these changes appear to influence some users. Each chapter explores controversies related to important subtopics in pornography scholarship including aggression, body image, and problematic use, as well as acknowledging the benefits that porn and porn literacy can provide in some contexts. Drawing on meticulous research and close readings of the available data, Emily F. Rothman explores the implications of existing evidence for practice and policy and offers meaningful guidance for public health scholars interested in understanding, and resolving, one of the most complicated issues in health and human behavior of our time.With unique academic insights, Pornography and Public Health avoids moralizing to argue that we can take steps to minimize possible harms from pornography while simultaneously protecting sexual liberty and promoting respect for pornography performers.
