The job will involve completing a series of studies from a funded project titles “Understanding and improving help seeking by people at risk of online child sexual exploitation and abuse” and funded by the End Violence Partnership and the Technology Coalition. The project has two overarching aims reflected in two complementary research phases: 1) to establish and test a psychological model of help-seeking behaviour among people at risk of perpetrating online child sexual exploitation or abuse, and 2) to empirically test whether systematically varying online messaging around help-resources can increase help-seeking among those at risk.
