dc.description.notesOutlines the methodology and results of a comparative multi-site evaluation, conducted in four US cities, aimed at ascertaining the relative effectiveness, in terms of re-assault rates, of different perpetrator programmes. Major variables identified were differences in court referral procedures (pre-trial or post-conviction), differences in programme duration and the un/availability of additional services such as in-house alcohol treatment. Although the study found close to equivalent re-assault rates across each site, it is argued that these results do not necessarily support arguments for brief therapy and managed care. Emphasising the importance of the context in which a service is delivered and the adaptation of programmes to their particular locale, suggestions for future research, practice and policy are made.en
