This is a global problem, and while the majority of research on homophobic hate crime focuses on the psychological impact of these incidents, little research exists addressing reporting behaviour and/or explaining why some people report homophobic hate crime, but most seem not to. With the key question in mind " What informs the decision to report homophobic violence?" this study examined the willingness of lesbian, gay and bisexual people to report homophobic incidents and the role of the Slovene reporting (police) and support system (NGOs) in this process. The results clearly demonstrate different perceptions of violent incidents and crime significantly influence the willingness to report as well as the decision of which agency to report to. In its conclusion the study relates the findings to social work practice and suggests that more active involvement of social services might also contribute to building the trust of gay and lesbian communities in non-LGBT services and in long term result in improving reporting levels for this particular minorityObstoječe raziskave v Sloveniji kažejo, da sta bili več kot dve tretjini gejev in lezbijk žrtve homofobnega nasilja; podatki tudi kažejo, da ta vrsta nasilja velikokrat ostane neprijavljena. To je globalni fenomen. Večina raziskav o homofobnem nasilju se osredotoča na psihološki vpliv teh incidentov, obstaja pa le malo raziskav o prijavljanju oz. iskanju razlag, zakaj nekateri homofobno nasilje prijavijo, večina pa ne. Na podlagi ključnega vprašanja "Kaj vpliva na odločitev o prijavi homofobnega nasilja?" je raziskava preučila pripravljenost lezbijk, gejev in biseksualcev, da prijavijo homofobno nasilje, ter vlogo, ki jo imata v tem procesu slovenska policija in podporni sistem (nevladne organizacije). Rezultati jasno kažejo, da percepcija nasilja odločilno vpliva na pripravljenost prijaviti nasilje kot tudi na odločitev, na katero organizacijo se obrniti. V sklepnem delu raziskava poveže rezultate s prakso socialnega dela in predlaga, da bi aktivnejše vključevanje socialnovarstvenih služb lahko povečalo zaupanje skupnosti LGBT v splošne podporne storitve in vodilo k povečanju prijav homofobnega nasiljaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Fakulteta za socialno delo
