Aims:  Alcohol is a risk factor for family violence that affects partners, parents, children and other relatives. This study aims to provide estimates of the prevalence of alcohol-related family violence reported in 2016 in Australia across numerous socio-demographic groups. Methods:  This paper presents secondary data analysis of 23,749 respondents (10,840 men, 12,909 women) from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare’s 2016 National Drug Strategy Household Survey (NDSHS). Alcohol-related family violence was measured by self-report as being physically or verbally abused or put in fear from a family member or partner deemed by the victim as under the influence of alcohol. Logistic regression was used to analyse which factors were associated with alcohol-related family violence.      Findings:  Analysis revealed that 5.9% of respondents (7.7% of women and 4.0% of men) reported alcohol-related family violence in the past year from either a partner or another family member. Respondents who were women (vs men), within less advantaged (vs more advantaged) socio-economic groups, risky drinkers (vs non-risky drinkers), residing in outer regional areas (vs major cities), holding a diploma (vs high school education) and single with dependents, reported higher overall rates of alcohol-related family violence. In contrast, respondents aged 55+ had significantly lower odds of experiencing alcohol-related family violence than all other age groups. Conclusions: Alcohol-related family violence was significantly more prevalent amongst respondents in a range of socio-demographic categories. Identification of these groups which are adversely affected by the drinking of family and partners can aid in informing current policy to protect those more vulnerable.

澳大利亚与酒精有关的家庭暴力：国家毒品战略家庭调查的二手数据分析

目的：酒精是影响伴侣、父母、孩子和其他亲属的家庭暴力的危险因素。本研究旨在估计 2016 年在澳大利亚众多社会人口群体中报告的与酒精相关的家庭暴力的发生率。方法：本文对来自澳大利亚健康与福利研究所 2016 年国家药物战略家庭调查 (NDSHS) 的 23,749 名受访者（10,840 名男性，12,909 名女性）进行二次数据分析。与酒精有关的家庭暴力通过自我报告来衡量，即受害者认为受到酒精影响的家庭成员或伴侣受到身体或口头虐待或恐惧。使用逻辑回归分析与酒精相关的家庭暴力相关的因素。结果：分析显示，5.9% 的受访者（7. 7% 的女性和 4.0% 的男性）在过去一年中报告了来自伴侣或其他家庭成员的与酒精有关的家庭暴力。女性（相对于男性）、处于弱势（相对于更有优势）的社会经济群体、高风险饮酒者（相对于非高风险饮酒者）、居住在偏远地区（相对于主要城市）、持有文凭（相对于高中）的受访者教育）和有受抚养人的单身人士报告的与酒精有关的家庭暴力的总体发生率较高。相比之下，55 岁以上的受访者遭受与酒精有关的家庭暴力的几率明显低于所有其他年龄组。结论：与酒精相关的家庭暴力在一系列社会人口统计类别的受访者中更为普遍。
