Notes:	Presents the methodology and results of a pair of complementary studies aimed at assessing the reliability and generalisability of a multi-dimensional rating system used by the United States’ largest family protection agency, the U.S Military’s Family Advocacy Program (FAP), to determine the severity of different forms of child/partner maltreatment. The findings indicate that the rating system is not only easy to use; it is comparatively accurate and reliable.
