social isolation and elder dependency risk factors, and physical abuse with the intraindividualdynamics risk factor. Implications from these findings and future directions for<strong>research</strong> are given. Because this study analysed the physical abuse and neglect groupsseparately, the small number <strong>of</strong> participants in each maltreatment group meant that this<strong>research</strong> was mainly indicative rather than conclusive. Nevertheless, demographicalcharacteristics <strong>of</strong> the elders and caregivers seemed to be comparable to pr<strong>of</strong>iles generatedoverseas, allowing comparisons to be made with greater confidence.Source: Author’s abstractOverall, S.

Unpublished master’s thesis,Massey University, New Zealand.See: www.nzfvc.org.nz/12081.pubTopic Areas: Care and protection, Social services, Prevention/intervention/treatment,Cultural practiceAbstract: This <strong>research</strong> report analyses a sample <strong>of</strong> 52 case records, and interviews 12 socialworkers in the Department <strong>of</strong> Child, Youth and Family Services, New Zealand whoexperienced violent incidents that were <strong>of</strong>ficially reported to the Dangerous SituationsStrategy (DSS) from 1996 to 2000. Social workers did experience a number <strong>of</strong> emotionalresponses that, if not dealt with constructively, had the potential for deleterious consequencesfor the social worker and quality <strong>of</strong> service delivery. The efficacy <strong>of</strong> the DSS as anorganisational response to workplace <strong>violence</strong> is discussed and further refinements suggested.It is concluded that the DSS was the beginning <strong>of</strong> an appropriate organisational response tothe pressing problem <strong>of</strong> workplace <strong>violence</strong> in the statutory social work services.Source: Author’s abstractPack, M. (2001). Sexual abuse counsellors’ responses to trauma and stress: A social workperspective. Unpublished doctoral dissertation, Victoria University <strong>of</strong> Wellington, NewZealand.See: www.nzfvc.org.nz/12152.pubTopic Areas: Sexual abuse, Victims/survivors, Health, Mental health, Social services,Prevention/intervention/treatment, Cultural practiceAbstract: Using a qualitative <strong>research</strong> methodology, this study explores the range <strong>of</strong> social,organisational and theoretical factors that impact on sexual abuse counsellors. The relevance<strong>of</strong> vicarious traumatisation and constructivist self-development theory are investigated using asocial work perspective. Secondly, the relationship between sexual abuse counsellors’responses to trauma and the theoretical frameworks identified as fruitful in their work withsexual abuse survivors are explored. Thirdly, the significant others <strong>of</strong> the primary participantswere interviewed to elicit their perspectives <strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>of</strong> the work on their relationshipswith the counsellor-participants. This thesis adds to the body <strong>of</strong> knowledge about stress andtrauma among sexual abuse therapists by introducing a multi-layered understanding <strong>of</strong> thechallenges faced. It suggests that there are ways in which social workers and therapists candevelop awareness and understanding <strong>of</strong> trauma and stress on multiple levels. It underlies theimportance <strong>of</strong> workers sampling and integrating <strong>into</strong> their practice a wide range <strong>of</strong> theoreticalapproaches. Maintaining relationship is the primary theme which protects the counsellor fromthe fragmenting sense <strong>of</strong> disjuncture that is a key experience <strong>of</strong> sexual abuse work.Source: Author’s abstract142

Sexual abuse counsellors’ responses to stress and trauma: A social work perspective.Social Work Review, 16(1), 19-25.See: www.nzfvc.org.nz/13371.pubTopic Areas: Sexual abuse, Mental health, Social services, Prevention/intervention/treatment, Cultural practiceAbstract: This article presents <strong>research</strong> that explored how theoretical, social andorganisational factors affect 36 Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) accredited sexualabuse counsellors from a social work perspective. The author examines the relationshipbetween how counsellors respond to their clients’ trauma, the theoretical practice frameworksthey use, and the impact <strong>of</strong> this work on counsellors’ personal relationships. Vicarioustraumatisation is discussed alongside strategies that promote worker wellbeing. This <strong>research</strong>employed a qualitative methodology, and randomly selected participants included socialworkers, psychotherapists, clinical psychologists, counsellors, and significant others <strong>of</strong> thesepr<strong>of</strong>essionals. The <strong>research</strong> findings suggests that both sexual abuse counsellors and theirsignificant others require an avenue for expressing the ramifications <strong>of</strong> involvement in thistype <strong>of</strong> work. The author discusses the importance <strong>of</strong> personal values and philosophies, multitheoreticalframeworks, and a process-orientated, as opposed to a rule-bound, context.Parker, W.

New Zealand Law Journal, 151-154.See: www.nzfvc.org.nz/13015.pubTopic Areas: Intimate partner abuse, Women, Perpetrators/<strong>of</strong>fenders, Justice, LegislationAbstract: This article examines the Matrimonial Property Act (1976) and the influence <strong>of</strong>partner <strong>violence</strong> on the division <strong>of</strong> marital property. Examples <strong>of</strong> legal cases involvingmarriages characterised by <strong>violence</strong> are used throughout the article to highlight the difficulties<strong>of</strong> dividing property within the context <strong>of</strong> <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>. The author posits that <strong>violence</strong>affects a woman’s capacity to contribute equally to the marriage, so discounting the influence<strong>of</strong> <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong> means the <strong>of</strong>fender has the same rights to property as the victim. TheMatrimonial Property Act is well behind other laws in addressing <strong>family</strong> <strong>violence</strong>, as thereare no consequences for the <strong>of</strong>fender. The author suggests the perpetrators <strong>of</strong> partner <strong>violence</strong>should be held accountable for their actions, so penalising them financially is a step towardsthis imperative.Paterson, R., Luntz, H., Perlesz, A., & Cotton, S.

The participants wererecruited mainly through self-referral, and were all mothers who were victims <strong>of</strong> <strong>violence</strong> bytheir adolescent children. The group intervention strategy was evaluated using bothquantitative and qualitative methodologies. The findings reveal a reduction in <strong>violence</strong>, but143
