Chunrye Kim earned her Ph.D. at John Jay College of Criminal Justice/Graduate Center, CUNY. Her primary research interests are victimology, domestic violence, and crime against vulnerable populations such as immigrants, children and sex trafficking victims. Her recent research focuses on the risk factors of intimate partner violence among Korean immigrants utilizing mixed methods and a case control design. In her research, Dr. Kim has found that the experience of childhood abuse victimization, acculturative stress, patriarchal gender role are the risk factors for becoming a victim of adult intimate partner violence. Dr. Kim’s previous works have been published in peer-reviewed journals including Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Child Abuse and Neglect, Journal of Family Violence, Sociological Forum and Sociological Perspectives.

At John Jay College, Dr. Kim was a recipient of the Lewis Rudin Fellowship in Applied Justice Research at the Research and Evaluation Center, where she worked with numerous criminal justice agencies and community organizations in New York City to generate compelling evaluation evidence such as building data resources and improving administrative procedures. She was also managing editor of the Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency (JRCD), one of the top journals in the field of criminal justice.
