dc.description.notesGeneral Overview: :This United States journal article reports on a study of the relationship between completion of batterer treatment programs and the batterers’ perceptions of the consequences of not completing treatment.<br/ ><br/ >Objective: :Entry into batter programs in the US is often by remand, as an alternative to prison. This study sought to determine the effect of court coercion to attend treatment programs, on completion of programs.<br/ >Methodology: :Interviews were conducted with 85 people enrolled in batterer treatment programs between January 1998 and April 1999. Batterers were asked about their perceptions of the level of coercion to complete treatment. After the interview, 71% of the participants completed treatment.<br/ ><br/ >Findings: :Around 71% of study participants completed treatment (a relatively high number). Those who were most likely to complete treatment were those who were employed and did not abuse drugs. The perception of levels of coercion did not predict likelihood of completing treatment.en
