Abstract
Online behaviour lists are a time-effective way of conducting Behaviour Sequence Analysis (BSA) research. The current chapter outlines how to put BSA research online and analyse the outcomes, in relation to sexual assault and rape cases. The current chapter also covers multiple research papers that were based on Police files of sexual assault and rape cases, and shows different methods for putting sequences into phases. Phases allow researchers to break-down long complex sequence strings into smaller phases or time zones. The chapter outlines the benefits of this type of approach in relation to other well-known methods, such as Crime Script Analysis.
