Casarez-Levison(1992) discussed victimization as a process where a person moves from a pre-crime state(previctimization), to the crime event itself(victimization), to initial coping and adjustment(transition), and finally to a state where being a crime victim is just part of one's life experience(resolution). 1, record 1, English, - criminal%20event

Pour Casarez-Levison [1992], la victimisation est un processus qui compte quatre étapes, soit l'état de la victime avant le crime (prévictimisation), l'acte criminel proprement dit (victimisation), l'adaptation initiale (transition) et finalement un état où le fait d'avoir été victime d'un acte criminel fait partie de l'expérience de vie de la personne (résolution du problème). 1, record 1, French, - acte%20criminel

As currents flow across beds of sand, they often erode various kinds of scour marks.

Sole marks, or tool marks, are sedimentary structures found on the bottom of certain current-deposited strata, that indicate small-scale current disruption, or scour.
