| dc.description.notes | Presents the design, methodology and results of a US research project aimed at reporting and exploring the views of 241 battered women with respect to mandatory arrest laws, no-drop policies and mandatory medical reporting by hospital staff. Outlines existing research in the area, highlighting the absence of empirical data supporting the implementation of mandatory reporting and prosecution laws in addition to some of the problems and issues it raises. Draws comparisons between responses received from various cultural and geographical groups. Suggests the majority of women involved with the study perceived mandatory reporting as beneficial but that their support for the laws was most often qualified in some way. Advocates for increased involvement of victims and greater recognition of cultural and racial differences in the development of legislative and policy responses. | en |
