dc.description.notesExplores alternative models for the incorporation of multicultural and ethnic issues into domestic violence research and assessment, by first examining what is meant by multiculturalism, violence and assessment of violence from a US perspective. Argues that cross-sectional approaches do not provide us with adequate information on the complexity of issues arising in culturally diverse communities. Outlines a socio-cultural assessment of violence which does integrate factors such as cultural identity, community values, religious/spiritual affiliation and family networks and suggests these ethnic specific dimensions then be integrated into an assessment of other critical factors such as power imbalances in relationships, family history of violence, safety of children and environmental context. Asserts that models for examining violence need to change if research is to be culturally relevant and the intersectional and structural effects of violence experienced by particular individuals and groups recognised. Suggestions for future research are also provided.en
