| dc.description.notes | General Overview: This Australian paper summarises the key statistical data available regarding the prevalence and impact of domestic violence in Australia.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion:The authors summarise the findings of the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ Personal Safety Survey:and the Australian Institute of Criminology’s International Violence Against Women Survey:(IVAWS) regarding the prevalence of domestic violence. The Personal Safety Survey:found that of the 4.7% of women who were physically assaulted in the 12 months prior to the survey, 31% were assaulted by their current or previous partner. Of the 1.6% who were sexually assaulted, 28.8% were assaulted by a current or previous partner. The IVAWS found that 31% of women who had ever had an intimate partner reported experiencing physical violence and 12% experienced sexual violence. The IVAWS also revealed increased levels of risk for younger women, Indigenous women, women separated from their partners and women who are pregnant.<br/ ><br/ >The paper summarises the available statistical information on the impact of domestic violence, including health consequences, homicide, homelessness, effects on children and economic costs.<br/ >The authors discuss the use of statistics for monitoring trends, targeting service delivery and informing policy and practice. They note that further information is needed about domestic violence within specific groups. They also argue that qualitative data is necessary to provide a fuller picture of both the experience of victims and the motivations of perpetrators. | en |
