“…Furthermore, the prevalence of IPV perpetration among Latino/Latina perpetrators of IPV remains vague. Studies suggest that the prevalence of IPV perpetration among Latino/Latina populations is anywhere between 23% and 68% (Hancock & Siu, 2009;Klevens, 2007;Tjaden & Thoennes, 2000;Walters et al, 2013). Researchers indicate that the ambiguity of these results may be related to factors such as immigration status, country of origin, proficiency in English, or perceived trust of institutions (Caetano, Schafer, & Cunradi, 2001;Field & Caetano, 2003).…”

“…However, results should be considered inconclusive at best as the available literature presents varying and often conflicting findings Caetano et al, 2009;Caetano et al, 2002;Cunradi et al, 1999;Cunradi et al, 2002;M.

Hancock and Siu (2009) argue for the importance of culturally based interventions for Latino/Latina perpetrators by illustrating that Latino male perpetrators were not accepting of the conventional model's association between patriarchy and male oppression. In addition, they argue that Latino men become stricter about enforcing traditional gender roles as a coping mechanism during the immigration process and find that immigrant women willingly comply.…”

“…The researchers conclude by demonstrating relevant issues specific to the Latino/Latina community that could be beneficial in the development of culturally focused program curricula for these groups. These include a focus on oppression and discrimination, traditional cultural expectations pertaining to gender roles, anger management, and individual's cumulative trauma as a precursor of IPV perpetration (Hancock & Siu, 2009). In addition, Cunradi et al (2000) identified decreasing household income as a predictor of violence.…”

“…Increased participation and satisfaction of Latino offenders in a culturally focused program suggests reason for further investigation into the benefits of culturally based curricula for Latinos. Several studies have addressed risk factors and cultural indicators of IPV in the Latino/Latina community; however, results should be considered inconclusive at best as the available literature presents varying and often conflicting findings Caetano et al, 2009;Caetano et al, 2002;Cunradi et al, 1999;Cunradi et al, 2000;Cunradi et al, 2002; M. R. Duke & Cunradi, 2011;Hancock & Siu, 2009;Kim-Goodwin & Fox, 2009;Sugihara & Warner, 2002). It has been argued that culturally based interventions are important for Latinos because Latino male perpetrators were not accepting of the conventional model's association between patriarchy and male oppression and that enforcement of traditional gender roles is magnified as a coping mechanism during the immigration process.…”

Domestic Violence Perpetrator Programs: A Proposal for Evidence-Based Standards in the United States

In the United States, the judicial system response to violence between intimate partners, or intimate partner violence (IPV), typically mandates that adjudicated perpetrators complete a batterer intervention program (BIP). The social science data has found that these programs, on the whole, are only minimally effective in reducing rates of IPV. The authors examined the social science literature on the characteristics and efficacy of BIPs. More than 400 studies were considered, including a sweeping, recently conducted survey of BIP directors across the United States and Canada. Results of this review indicate that the limitations of BIPs are due, in large part, to the limitations of current state standards regulating these programs and, furthermore, that these standards are not grounded in the body of empirical research evidence or best practices. The authors, all of whom have considerable expertise in the area of domestic violence perpetrator treatment, conducted an exhaustive investigation of the following key intervention areas: overall effectiveness of BIPs; length of treatment/length of group sessions; number of group participants and number of facilitators; group format and curriculum; assessment protocol and instruments; victim contact; modality of treatment; differential treatment; working with female perpetrators; working with perpetrators in racial and ethnic minority groups; working with lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) perpetrators; perpetrator treatment and practitioner–client relationships; and required practitioner education and training. Recommendations for evidence-based national BIP standards were made based on findings from this review.

Intimate Partner Violence in Minority Communities

Following the birth of the concept of intersectionality, research on intimate partner violence (IPV) has expanded to recognize experiences of victimization in minority communities. Studies of intersectional dimensions of IPV in a range of minority communities have shown that these communities, individually and collectively, experience violence in intimate partner relationships in ways unique to them. Not only have these studies made valuable contributions to knowledge, they have also drawn attention to the needs of minority women in victim support services. However, despite the growing research interest in IPV in minority communities, existing studies reveal the marginalization of certain immigrant communities in IPV research.
