dc.description.notesReviews the literature on domestic violence prevalence studies from the US, Canada and New Zealand, comparing methods used in overseas community samples during the 1970s and 80s with studies done on Australian populations during the same period. Highlights some of the methodological issues inherent in domestic violence research with particular emphasis on the variety of definitions used by researchers in the field. Argues the two major streams of domestic violence research, qualitative and quantitative, are often working against each other because their discussion of the issues frequently describe different phenomena. Suggests that in order to obtain an accurate indication of the prevalence of partner abuse, broader and more carefully operationalised definitions of domestic violence must be established.en
