“…The recent emphases on victims and on sexual offenses may have made victims and police more sensitive than in earlier times to minor kinds of invasive behavior, citizens more likely to perceive incidents as assaultive when answering victimization surveys and to report incidents to the police, and police more likely to treat them as offenses. Selmini and McElrath (2014) show that sexual offense rates in Scandinavia continued rising long after they began to fall in many countries. Kangaspunta and Haen Marshall (2012) reviewed victimization survey data and police statistics on intimate violence in a number of countries.…”

“…Lappi-Seppälä & Lehti (2014, p. 467;cf. Baumer & Wolff, 2014, p. 261;Selmini & McElrath, 2014) concluded that "gender equality seems to go along with general welfare indicators which reduce all types of lethal violence in society, and male victimization decreases then usually even faster than female victimization.

“…The recent declines are incontrovertible in relation to property offenses and homicide; no well-informed scholar disagrees (Eisner, 2008;Farrell et al, 2014;Lappi-Seppälä and Lehti, 2014.). The pattern is somewhat less clear for non-lethal violence, including sexual offenses Linde, 2010, 2012;Selmini and McElrath, 2014). In the English-speaking and some continental European countries, both victimization and official police data show declines.…”
