| dc.description.notes | This article presents the results of a Seattle study in the US where 387 men who battered were followed over a 2-year period using quasi-experimental designed research. These men were court mandated into domestic violence group treatment. Criminal records of those batterers who have completed treatment, not completed treatment and been incarcerated were compared 2 years after sentencing. Batterers who had completed group treatment had fewer domestic violence re-offending at follow-up. After controlling for criminal record and demographics, incarcerated batterers had a greater number of re-offences as compared with non-completers of treatment. The study finds that batterers who did not complete treatment were significantly more likely to commit further domestic violence-related offences than those who had completed treatment. It found that, as the number of sessions attended increased, the number of post-treatment domestic violence arrests decreased. However, it suggests that the benefit of the year-long treatment may not outweigh the cost since the observed reduction in re-offending after treatment, although statistically significant, may still not constitute a meaningful decrease in domestic violence re-assaults. Another limitation noted of the coordinated community response is that the majority of batterers mandated to attend treatment did not complete it | en |
