A systematic search of 5 databases for quantitative reports resulted in 1,379 potentially relevant entries, of which 34 met the inclusion criteria. Studies were screened using prespecified criteria for the population (adults), outcomes (individual-level outcomes), study design (quantitative, including arrest for DV as a focal independent variable and a non-arrest comparator), publication type (peer-reviewed academic journal), study location (United States), language (English), and publication year (in or after 1984). Part I employs narrative synthesis to explore the impact of arrests by race/ethnicity, revealing gaps in reporting and a scarcity of analyses that consider race/ethnicity or its intersections with gender. Part II, a meta-analysis, indicates that arrest does not consistently reduce repeat violence and suggests variability based on the type of comparator used and the proportion of Black victims in a sample. The review finds that much of the research on the impacts of arrest is outdated and lacks diversity in data sources and outcomes, with few studies examining outcomes other than repeat violence. Future research should prioritize an intersectional approach and the perspectives and needs of survivors. Policymakers should consider the potential for disparate impacts and evaluate alternatives to mandatory arrest policies, with funding available for new data sources and related projects. Ultimately, policymakers must consider the context when evaluating the effectiveness and ethics of arrest policies. Trauma Violence and Abuse 11/10/2024 Research article Competence in digital forensics Those practising in the field of digital forensics must be competent to conduct the work they carry out, and such competence must also be evidenced and assessed. Those seeking to demonstrate staff competence must consider what tasks and roles it is being sought for, how it is achieved, what is an acceptable level of performance for a task, and how to evidence and assess any claimed competence. This work intends to explore the multifaceted nature of competence within the field of digital forensics, examining how it is developed, assessed, and maintained in an era characterised by continuous technological advancement. Discussions are also linked to the requirements defined in the accreditation framework ISO/IEC 17025:2017 which governs the digital forensic landscape in England and Wales. We hope to contribute to the ongoing discourse on elevating standards and fostering excellence in the science of digital forensics.
