| Annotation | Most available data about perpetrators of elder abuse are included as part of the description of abuse experienced by older adults. Embedded within this literature is some evidence that perpetrators of elder abuse are involved in polyvictimisation. This article draws on prior empirical research of apparent cases of polyvictimisation. It focuses on what is known about the personal characteristics of perpetrators of polyvictimisation, highlights the context of the relationship between perpetrators of polyvictimisation and their older adult victims, addresses the potential consequences for perpetrators of polyvictimisation, and provides recommendations for future research and practice. Findings elucidate characteristics of and potential outcomes for perpetrators of late life polyvictimisation. (RH). |
