Dr. Chrystina Y Hoffman

Dr. Chrystina Y. Hoffman joined the faculty at the University of West Florida in Fall 2019 and conducts research, broadly, on victimization. Her research has examined questions such as whether children or adolescents who have been bullied experience greater consequences in adulthood, whether international students face the same victimization risk as domestic students, whether experiencing violent victimization impacts future expectations, and what factors motivate or hinder college students’ decisions to intervene.

Hoffman’s work has been published in peer-reviewed publications such as Youth Violence & Juvenile Justice, Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Victims & Offenders, and Journal of Ethnicity in Criminal Justice.
