A self-report instrument was created to measure stress, attitudes, and performance of domestic and family violence (DFV) first responders in an Australian state. DFV-related stress negatively impacted officers’ attitudes and self-assessed performance. Higher DFV stress was predicted by the frequency and severity of DFV incidents, and the absence of lived experience. Negative attitudes were predicted by a shorter length of service and lower severity, and poorer performance by a longer length of service and lower perceived social support. Males reported higher stress and poorer performance than females. The findings reveal systemic issues that inhibit effective police response, emphasizing the need to address negative attitudes and “DV fatigue.”

“DV疲劳”：工作压力与警员在家庭暴力事件中的态度和表现

创建了一个自我报告工具来衡量澳大利亚某州家庭暴力 (DFV) 急救人员的压力、态度和表现。与 DFV 相关的压力对警官的态度和自我评估表现产生负面影响。 DFV 事件的频率和严重程度以及生活经验的缺乏可预测 DFV 压力较高。服务年限较短和严重程度较低可以预测消极态度，服务年限较长和感知的社会支持较低可以预测表现较差。男性比女性压力更大，表现更差。调查结果揭示了阻碍警方有效反应的系统性问题，强调需要解决消极态度和“家庭暴力疲劳”。
