dc.description.notesGeneral Overview :This US article reviews the literature on domestic violence treatment efficacy and intervention effectiveness, with a focus on post treatment recidivism.<br/ >Objective :The article discusses some of the challenges in domestic violence research and in the assessment of domestic violence. It gives a review of the factors related to treatment efficacy and post treatment recidivism. It argues for greater efforts to improve attrition rates from batterer treatment programs. It refers to literature supporting the need for increased contact with the legal system to ensure completion of treatment. The current drop out rate for court-mandated treatment is found to be nearly as high as for voluntary treatment, which implies that the perception of consequences from the legal system do not deter dropout. Other factors that are discussed include increasing the regularity of contact with the legal system, reducing the time gap from assault to legal consequences and enhancing the sanctions for treatment dropout. It also discusses how current subtypes of batterers have not yet proven to be clinically useful. Research suggests benefits could be gained from follow-up interventions. It also refers to risk assessment instruments.<br/ ><br/ >* comparing sanctions through legal system contact only with treatment only, and through combined legal system and treatment.<br/ >Conclusions :The article provides implications for research and treatment and suggestions for future research. The most important suggestion for future research is the need to study domestic violence as part of family violence, involving the broad overlap between research on domestic violence and research on child abuse.en
