This broad report separates social wellbeing into the following indicators: people, health, knowledge and skills, paid work, economic living standards, civil and political rights, cultural identity, the physical environment, safety, and social connectedness. The report records collective social goals and identifies areas for future government attention. The 2005 report differs from earlier reports as the 'child abuse and neglect' indicator in the 'safety' section is renamed and changed to 'intentional injury child mortality'. Statistical information is included on child maltreatment death rates, replacing previous reports emphasis on rates of physical, emotional and sexual abuse, and neglect. The section relating specifically to family violence is 'safety'. This discusses intentional injury child mortality rates, and in a separate sub-category, intimate partner violence is summarised in a 'violent offender' category. Current trends, international comparisons, and age, sex and ethnic differences are provided. Although the report covers economic factors and policy, it does not link these as a causal relationship with family violence. However, these statistics may be useful to the researcher. The structure of this report is based on previous reports from 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004 UR - http://socialreport.msd.govt.nz/index.html ER -
