| dc.description.notes | Reviews the state of knowledge about (US) programmes for perpetrators of domestic violence through posing 5 questions: Do perpetrator counselling programmes work? What approach is most effective? How can programme dropout be reduced? How can perpetrator programmes increase women’s safety? How can these programmes be extended to rural and minority communities? In answer to the first question, Gondolf concludes from reviews of 30 published single-site evaluations that programmes appear to achieve a reduction in violence in between 60 and 80 per cent of programme completers and ‘less impressive (but less well documented) reduction in threats and verbal abuse.’ However, these results are tempered by a raft of methodological problems which are outlined, together with suggestions for addressing these through research design. Calls for future research to involve collaboration between researchers, practitioners and victims, to ensue that programmes assist the people these programmes were developed to assist - the victims of domestic violence. | en |
