dc.description.notesA sample of women from a domestic violence shelter programme in the United States were interviewed six times after their exit from the shelter over a period of approximately two years. A number of variables were examined to determine the likelihood of assaults from the ex-partner. These could be categorised into subgroups as follows: batterer characteristics and behaviours, survivor characteristics and behaviours, and system response. Results indicated that 36% (49) of women were assaulted by their ex-partners while 11% (15) became re-involved with their partner during the period of the study. Nearly three-quarters of the 49 women who were assaulted were subjected to a least one form of severe, potentially lethal violence, such as being kicked, raped, choked, stabbed, or shot. Women sought assistance from both formal and informal help sources. 55% told at least one source of informal help such as their family or friends. Nearly half (49%) of women who were assaulted sought assistance from at least one formal source of help including the police, medical personnel or shelter personnel. Several factors, particularly those relating to the abusive partner, such as prior violence, threats and sexual suspicion, were found to have significance in predicting further abuse from the partner after separation.en
