Kekuasaan Keluarga-Australia

The extent and nature of domestic violence between adults in modern society has long been a matter of controversy. Reliable measurement has been almost impossible, leading to a situation where exaggerated claims or denials can all too readily be made. The essence of this report from the crime Research Centre, Western Australia, is that the authors triangulate numerous data sources. The information collated and analysed is as follows: police recorded crime statistics, hospital admission records, police emergency calls data, police local data in an area of Western Australia where the Duluth project was being replicated, the Centre's own three tiered victims' survey. Court restraining orders, women's refuge or shelter data, and crisis intervention data from the Department for Community Devolopment.
