520 _aThis report presents information collected from the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ (ABS) 2016 Personal Safety Survey (PSS) and supplementary data drawn from a number of other ABS data sources about experiences, characteristics and outcomes of violence, cohabiting partner violence and emotional abuse, sexual harassment and stalking for persons living with disability. Risk of violence: The 2016 PSS found that living with disability or a long-term health condition raised the likelihood of experiencing various types of violence for women but not for men. These include physical violence by any perpetrator, violence by a cohabiting partner (physical and/or sexual), emotional abuse by a cohabiting partner, sexual harassment by any perpetrator, and stalking by any perpetrator. The difference was greatest for violence by a cohabiting partner (physical and/or sexual), where women with disability were twice as likely to experience violence by a cohabiting partner as women without disability. The rate of sexual violence was similar for women with and without disability or a long-term health condition. (From the document). Record #7102
