| dc.description.notes | General Overview: This paper examines intimate partner violence amongst a sample of police detainees and its associations with drug use, criminality and other behaviour. The study undertook a comparative analysis based on gender and identified risk markers for involvement in partner violence. The authors discuss implications for policy development.<br/ ><br/ >The authors highlight the accuracy and recall issues involved with self-report surveys, in particular with self-reporting drug use and offending behaviour; they also point out that the results may be applicable only to police detainees, a specific subgroup of offenders. Multivariate analysis of the data was performed to identify risk factors, and bivariate analysis to identify the gender differences.<br/ ><br/ >General Discussion: The level of reported violence was markedly higher, and different in other respects, in the subject population than in the general population. Of the 49% of detainees who reported being involved in partner violence, 68% of these reported being both a victim and perpetrator. The findings indicate that amongst detainees, partner violence is characterised by violent acts between a couple rather than between a male perpetrator and female victim. There were, however, gender differences between the types of violence experienced and perpetrated, and amongst the risk factors identified.<br/ ><br/ >Conclusion: The paper identifies significant policy implications of the findings. The paper discusses possible policy regarding drug and alcohol use, diversions for a first offence and early family intervention. | en |
