Background:

  • Coordinated service delivery models, such as Sexual Assault Response Teams (SARTs), aim to improve responses to sexual assault.
  • Effective collaboration among diverse professionals is crucial for victim support and justice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore how members of SARTs engage with each other and manage professional differences.
  • To examine the discursive construction of roles and the negotiation of interdisciplinary power within SARTs.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study utilizing semi-structured interviews.
  • 24 SART responders (law enforcement, forensic nurses, rape crisis advocates) participated.
  • Analysis focused on how team members perceive each other's roles and expertise.

Main Results:

  • Interdisciplinary power is negotiated through discussions about authority, expertise, and credibility.
  • Discursive processes reveal underlying tensions and potential for conflict within SARTs.
  • Team members establish and question each other's qualifications and commitment to victim interests.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding discursive power dynamics is key to preventing conflict in SARTs.
  • Effective SART functioning relies on managing professional differences and establishing mutual trust.
  • Addressing tensions in interdisciplinary collaboration can enhance services for sexual assault survivors.
