including the cognitions and behaviours <strong>of</strong> the abuser, and acknowledge that the abuser mustbe willing to change for any intervention to work.In chapter 1, "Working With Women Who Abuse", Glennis Dennehey and Morrigan Seversdiscuss the need for intervention strategies specifically designed for women who abuse, asthis group is <strong>of</strong>ten overlooked in the field <strong>of</strong> <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>.In chapter 2, "Working With Issues <strong>of</strong> Same-Sex Family Violence", Shona McLeodhighlights the differences between heterosexual and same-sex partner abuse, and suggests thatservices specifically for victims and perpetrators <strong>of</strong> same-sex <strong>violence</strong> are required.In chapter 3, "Working With Children Affected by Violence", Martin Kelly, Julia Andersonand Karen Dawson discuss the importance <strong>of</strong> building rapport with children who are victims<strong>of</strong> <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>, in order to enhance their participation in intervention programmes.Supporting children and providing a child-friendly environment are also cited as importantfactors in the design <strong>of</strong> <strong>violence</strong> intervention strategies.In chapter 9, "Domestic Violence and Polynesian Families: Providing AppropriateInterventions", Susan Wurtzburg states that intervention programmes involving Pacific Islandclients must recognise this group <strong>of</strong> peoples’ unique cultural background and practices.McPhillips, K., Berman, S., Olo-Whaanga, E., & McCully, K.

Itconsiders a wide range <strong>of</strong> victims, including children, adults, elderly, immigrants, refugees,prostitutes and disabled. The authors discuss international and local practice in the area <strong>of</strong>sexual <strong>violence</strong> prevention, considering the needs <strong>of</strong> specific population groups, and currentprovisions for these groups. The report <strong>of</strong>fers statistics, outlines vulnerability and risk factors,and ways to understand sexual <strong>violence</strong>. The authors recommend that improvements be madein the collection <strong>of</strong> data on sexual <strong>violence</strong> as current figures significantly under-represent thereality <strong>of</strong> the sexual <strong>violence</strong>. Other recommendations include raising awareness in culturallyappropriate ways, increasing funding towards prevention campaigns, and working with youngpeople to ensure they understand what is and is not acceptable behaviour.Medcalf, E.

The Sensitive Claims Unit <strong>of</strong> the Accident Rehabilitation and CompensationInsurance Corporation (ACC) accepts claims for the psychological effects <strong>of</strong> sexual abuse,and manages the treatment programmes for victims. The author discusses the risks for ACCstaff working with sexual abuse victims, and suggests ‘vicarious traumatisation’ and burnoutare significant consequences. The article examines the influence <strong>of</strong> conflicting value systems120
within the Sensitive Claims Unit and how this can affect the way individual staff operate. Theauthor posits that in order to manage the care <strong>of</strong> sexual abuse victims effectively, thewellbeing <strong>of</strong> staff working with this client group must be ensured.Merkel-Holguin, L.

Firstly, there is discussion on how psychology informslaw by providing information that is useful to the courts, both in specific cases and in general.The author examines the role <strong>of</strong> expert evidence from psychologists, discussing both theeffects <strong>of</strong> trauma on memory, and the complainant’s behavioural characteristics and history.The issue <strong>of</strong> court appointed experts and the possibility <strong>of</strong> court appointed interdisciplinarylegal training are also discussed. Secondly, the report looks at how psychology can attempt toinfluence law and policy. It is argued that recovered memory cases cannot be adequatelyresolved by the legal system working in isolation.Miller, D., Thow, N., Hall, J., & Martin, I. (2005).

A sample <strong>of</strong> 447,809 consultations involving143,634 patients from 41 general practices across New Zealand was examined for thosedocumenting <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong> issues. Three hundred and thirty-seven <strong>of</strong> the original sample <strong>of</strong>447,809 registered a <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong> issue. The most common type <strong>of</strong> <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>recorded by GPs was physical abuse (42%), followed by sexual abuse (26%). Mental healthissues, including depression and anxiety disorders, were noted in 18% <strong>of</strong> consultations. Theauthors conclude that there are low numbers <strong>of</strong> general practice consultations recording<strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>. However, GPs may not always record this information, or patients may notbe forthcoming in disclosing <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>. Recommendations include more training forGPs in recognising and responding to <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>.121
