Notes:	The last 15 years has seen a growing body of research emphasising that not all intimate partner violence(IPV) is the same. There are key differences in terms of the presence of control, gender perpetration,severity and impact.* Work on differentiation is diverse. It includes research exploring different types of IPV, as well as differenttypes of male and female perpetrators of IPV.* There is great interest in the potential of differentiation to assist in more appropriately targetedinterventions for victims, perpetrators and any children of the relationship. In particular, in the area offamily law in Australia, along with Canada and the United States, there has been some interest expressedin the potential for differentiation to provide for more nuanced responses that take account of the type ofviolence or perpetrator when making determinations about ongoing parenting arrangements.* A range of important concerns and criticisms have been raised about the methodology of varioustypologies, as well as concerns about their translation into practice. They suggest that there is still muchmore work to be done on the articulation of typologies before a useful tool can be developed to assistdelineation in practice.
