Risky alcohol use and violence against women
Risky alcohol use and violence against women
Prevention resources are always limited and are therefore best targeted at those who are most at risk, regardless of whether the correlate plays a causal role or is simply a signal of heightened risk. Women reporting they have been assaulted to health, welfare or criminal justice authorities should be assessed to determine whether they also have concurrent drug and alcohol problems
Colonization and Its Legacy
The Indigenous peoples of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand are all over-represented in their prison systems. Yet despite a shared history of colonization and dispossession, most Indigenous peoples have little if any contact with the criminal justice system. In this article we put forward and test a model of Australian Aboriginal arrest which seeks to explain why some Aboriginal people come into frequent contact with the crimin…
Adolescents’ educational aspirations and expectations
Adolescents residing in regional areas, and those from more financially disadvantaged families, traditionally have worse academic outcomes relative to their counterparts in metropolitan communities. A key mechanism that may account for these differences is how far individuals would like to progress in the educational system (aspirations) and how far they actually think they will progress (expectations). These plans are shaped by social background…
Extracurricular activity participation, school belonging, and depressed mood
Feelings of acceptance within school communities can promote positive psychological outcomes. Despite occurring outside of the classroom, youth who engage in extracurricular activities typically report greater school belonging. Accordingly, we examined the longitudinal effect of extracurricular activities on school belonging and depressed mood in a nationally representative, Australian sample of adolescents (N 3,850, M age 12.41) followed for fou…
Investigating identity crime and misuse in Australia
Purpose This study examines identity theft as a significant and growing issue in Australia, not only due to its financial impact but also because of the emotional, psychological, and physical harm it causes, making it a public health concern. This study aims to analyse the results of the 2019 Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) survey to identify factors associated with an increased likelihood of identity theft victimisation. Design/methodo…
Who excludes? Young People's Experience of Social Exclusion
Existing policy research has not comprehensively examined the processes by which young people experience social exclusion: that is, the relationships among different risk factors for exclusion, their actual experiences of exclusion, and outcomes that matter for their life chances. Drawing on data from a survey of Australian 13-14 year olds (N=3,535), this paper adapts the Bristol Social Exclusion Matrix to examine pathways from young people's per…
Social and Emotional Wellbeing Among Young People; the Mitigating Role of Ecological Domains
To examine the role of neighbourhood, what Bronfenbrenner describes as an element in the exosystem, as a protective asset for adolescents’ social and emotional wellbeing. The study used a subset of national data reported by adolescents and their parents from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC). A linear mixed-effect model was used to estimate the association between neighbourhood indicators and trajectories in a measure of social…
Reducing educational disparities between Australian adolescents in regional and metropolitan communities
Australian adolescents living in regional communities are significantly more likely to perform worse at school, relative to those in metropolitan communities. These disparities are partially due to the development of lower educational expectations among regional adolescents. In the current study, we tested whether the differences in educational expectations across communities were reduced when adolescents engage in extracurricular activities, and…
