Abstract

A discussion of the likely links between repeat victimisation and fear of crime is contained in this chapter, using the measures of fear collected by the 1991 Queensland Crime Victims Survey. The results from this discussion are useful to identify some general patterns which may easily be extended to the whole of Australia.
