| Notes: | Provides an overview of the various types of crime measurement used by researchers in Australia, identifying some of the reasons findings often differ, before discussing some of the consequences of employing discrepant methodologies. Advantages and disadvantages of each mode of measurement are examined, as are some of the factors such as question wording and sampling that can affect results. Diverging prevalence rates for victims of assault are used to illustrate some of these effects. |
