| dc.description.notes | This report presents key results of the Australian component of the 2004 International Crime Victim Survey (ICVS), which interviewed 7,000 people about their experience and perceptions of crime and the criminal justice system. Compared with the 2000 ICVS, rates of crime victimisation have declined in Australia. It also looks at the most common reason for failure to report assault/threats. Substantial proportions of some types of assault/threats were not reported due to a fear of retaliation by the offender such as women assaulted or threatened by intimate partners (28%). Policy implications are provided. It suggests that an awareness of the finding that one fifth of partner assaults are not reported to police due to the victim’s fear of retaliation by the offender, could help police and support services reach out to victims to prevent a repeat of the crime. Assaults and threats take place in different contexts according to the gender of victims. Women are more likely than men to be assaulted in the context of intimate relationships (9% compared with 2%). It is recognised that traditional crime victimisation surveys tend to under-estimate the level of partner violence as the methodology or question is not designed to measure sensitive experiences that victims may be reluctant to discuss. | en |
