Includes information from 4800 respondents including: the prevalence, types, history and effects of interpersonal violence. For the purposes of this study, interpersonal violence includes: domestic violence; physical assault; sexual assault; child abuse and neglect and elder abuse. This second report on interpersonal violence of adults in the South Australian community, differs from the 1998 survey in obtaining interpersonal violence estimates for each of the eleven health regions in South Australia, and further exploring issues relating to mental health. Presents findings on domestic violence including: Action taken as a result of domestic violence; reasons for staying in violent situations; injuries reported; reasons for contacting/not contacting health services. Overall, 17.8% of adults in South Australia reported some form of domestic violence; 12% of respondents reported a physically violent or abusive relationship; and 14.1% an emotionally abusive relationship. The report focuses on the effects of domestic violence on health. For example, 38.6% of respondents who reported domestic violence also reported physical hurt as a result. Survey respondents who reported domestic violence were more likely to be smokers, have mental health problems, have suicidal thoughts and be over weight. Those reporting domestic violence were also significantly more likely to have reported their general health as fair or poor, have alcohol consumption problems, a negative perception of their body shape and lower self esteem. Reports that women, younger adults, people who are unemployed or part time employed and living in a household with gross annual income less than $40,000 were significantly more likely to report having experienced domestic violence by a partner of ex partner. | en |
