dc.description.notesThis article presents the public lecture that Professor Frank Ascione from Utah State University’s Department of Psychology, delivered when he visited Australia, on the links between different forms of family violence and animal abuse. It outlines the relationship between violence towards family members and violence towards animals. While this relatively new area of research finds correlations between different forms of abuse, it does not show a cause-and-effect link. It suggests the need to develop better assessment strategies to record the incidence of animal abuse and refers to Australian research on this area of measurement being conducted where a screening questionnaire has been developed. It calls for early intervention so that animal abuse is seen as a red flag alerting to other problems. Agency collaborations need to be developed such as animal shelters for pets when women cannot take their pets with them to a refuge. Family violence and child abuse professionals are also making constructive links with veterinarians and animal welfare agencies, with examples of developments in the UK and the US.en
