Technology-facilitated abuse in relationships (TAR) occurs frequently among young people. 

Register for this event 

Presenter: Dr Cynthia Brown. 

Cynthia will discuss how she used a new measure of TAR to explore the victimisation and impact of TAR on a nation-wide sample of young Australians. She will discuss the different dimensions of TAR and how they and their impact, vary across gender. She will include a discussion of how some TAR behaviours tend to occur as patterns, and how the analyses of single TAR behaviours or dimensions to the exclusion of TAR behavioural patterns, can produce erroneous findings. 

MAEVe is an interdisciplinary research alliance based at The University of Melbourne with the broad aim of ending violence against women and their children.
