DETAILED METADATA Contact details:
DESCRIPTION: The ATP is a longitudinal study that is tracking the development and well-being of a community based sample of Victorian children born in the early 1980's. The Wave 14 survey contained questions which related to respondents’ experiences of physical, sexual and verbal abuse by a parent/s. The Wave 14 and 15 surveys contained questions about respondents' experiences of verbal and physical abuse by a partner. DEFINITION OF FAMILY AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: Information on family and domestic violence has not been directly collected within this survey. Both parents of a study child were asked the following questions:
Aspects of family and domestic violence captured by the data are:
RELATIONSHIP TO DEFINING THE DATA CHALLENGE FOR FAMILY, DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE (cat. no. 4529.0) The summary table below is designed to indicate the amount of information available for each of the six elements outlined in Defining the Data Challenge for Family, Domestic and Sexual Violence, 2013 (cat. no. 4529.0).This is a subjective assessment made by the ABS about the data collected and is not an indication of data quality.
FAMILY AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE RELATED CONTENT (data items collected) The following tables provide a detailed analysis of the availability of specified data elements in the data source. The data items have been grouped into four counting units: 1. Context; 2. Person; 3. Incident/Event; and 4. Transaction. Tables are absent from the entry in cases where the data source contains no data items which relate to the particular counting unit/s. Context Please Note: This data source does not contain any data items relevant to this counting unit.

Please Note: This data source does not contain any data items relevant to this counting unit. Participants were recruited from a subset of Victorian Local Government Areas (LGA) selected by the ABS to provide a representative sample of the State’s population. All parents with an infant aged 4-8 months who visited an Infant Welfare Centre in a chosen LGA during the first two weeks of May 1983 were invited to participate. The initial sample comprised 2443 families from urban and rural areas of the state. Approximately two-thirds of the families are still participating after 30 years. Fifteen waves of data have been collected by mail surveys from 4-8 months to 28 years of age. The first fourteen waves of data were collected via mail surveys. Study members were given the additional option of completing the survey online at the fifteenth survey wave. The first four waves of data were collected at annual intervals from infancy to 3–4 years of age. From the commencement of primary school up to 19-20 years, the data collections occurred at two yearly intervals, with an additional assessment completed during the first year of secondary school in order to track well-being over this important developmental transition. Since early adulthood, there has been a four year gap between the data collections (at 19-20 years; 23-24 years; and 27-28 years). Parents, Maternal and Child Health nurses, primary school teachers, and from the age of 11 years, the children themselves, have completed questionnaires about the young people's development and well-being. These include temperament, behavioural and school adjustment, substance use, antisocial behaviour, depression, health, social competence, civic minded-ness and engagement, peer relationships, family functioning, parenting style and family environment. There have also been a number of smaller, in-depth studies addressing specific developmental and clinical themes in which sub-samples of families have been visited at home and the children individually assessed. SCOPE / TARGET POPULATION Males and females born within the State of Victoria between September 1982 and January 1983. COVERAGE One child selected per household (aged between 4-8 months at time of commencement), except in the case of twins, in which case both children were selected. DATA AVAILABILITY / DISSEMINATION Family and domestic violence related data is not routinely published but is included in thematic papers where relevant to the research topic. Data is not publicly available.
