| Title: | Spouse Assault Replication Program: studies of effects of arrest on domestic violence |
| Authors: | Weisz, Arlene |
| Keywords: | Perpetrators;Policing |
| Year: | 2001 |
| Publisher: | VAWnet Library |
| Notes: | Reviews the methodologies, findings and criticisms directed at a series of studies designed to determine whether the results of Sherman and Berk’s 1984 Minneapolis Domestic Violence Experiment could be replicated. Although each of the studies focused on the effectiveness of various police responses to domestic violence, each occurred in a different geographical and experimental setting. Concludes that, although a range of contextual factors must be taken into account in determining the impact of police responses, the replication studies conducted failed to indicate that arrest is a significant deterrent to offenders. |
