| dc.description.notes | General Overview: This Australian Domestic and Family Violence Clearinghouse Issues Paper explores the relationship between non-physical contact (NPC) abuse and domestic violence. It presents a model that assists practitioners to differentiate between verbal, emotional and psychological abuse.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: :The paper, written from the perspective of a family and relationships counsellor, aims to define NPC abuse and to identify the circumstances in which NPC abuse escalates from 'relationship conflict' to domestic violence. The paper begins by outlining the components of abuse, long term physical and mental health consequences, and emotional and behavioural consequences of NPC abuse for three groups of victims: children, adults who experienced emotional abuse in childhood and adults who experience emotional abuse later in life. Based on a review of the clinical literature, the author argues that NPC abuse is linked to poor physical and mental health outcomes in both children and adults, particularly depression, anxiety, PTSD, low self-esteem and anger management issues.<br/ ><br/ >The article then presents a model for distinguishing between three forms of NPC abuse - verbal, emotional and psychological - on the basis of two key factors: the sequence of time over which abuse occurs and the enduring effects of the abuse on the victim. The author concludes that NPC abuse should be regarded as a form of domestic violence when the following criteria are met: one party attempts to control the other; there is a clear power differential between parties; and one party fears the other. The paper concludes by examining the difficulties for practitioners in identifying NPC abuse and discussing implications for practice. | en |
