“…Currently, the focus of many evaluations is on risk factors and physical violence, which include previously using a knife/gun, threatening to kill or to commit suicide (Campbell et al 2003). The problems of using the Conflict Tactics Scale, which was used to assess physical abuse in this study, have been documented (Dobash and Dobash 2004;Dobash et al 1992).…”

Abusive Men’s Indirect Control of Their Partner During the Process of Separation

The current study evaluates the impact of prior controlling behavior and physical abuse on indirect abuse during the process of separation. The sample includes women in the New York City family court system from 2002 to 2005 who had at least one child with the male she was obtaining an order of protection against. Stepwise logistic regression was used to determine the impact of prior physical abuse and controlling behavior on if the abusive partner told lies to the children, kept the children longer or contacted the woman's family or friends over the follow-up period. Women experienced a decline in the occurrence of physical abuse but did not experience the same decline in controlling behaviors over the follow-up period. Level of education and employment status of the couple may be more appropriate predictors of later indirect abuse over the process of separation than prior physical abuse and controlling behavior.

Each year, 5.3 million women are abused and several thousand die at the hands of intimate partners. If family violence were better understood, it could be predicted, described by patterns and prevented. Life charting (LC) is a method developed to explicate complex phenomena, such as bipolar disorder. This study tested the feasibility and usefulness of LC in deriving data about critical points in life when interventions could reduce or prevent family violence. Two research questions guided the study: (1) Does LC yield valid, reliable data when used as a review with women exposed to violence? (2) Is LC feasible for use in research?

“…Women who are stalked (McFarlane et al, 1999) and women who have left the batterer appear to be at increased risk for domestic homicide (Campbell et al, 2003;Campbell, Glass, Sharps, Laughton, & Bloom, 2007). Similarly, women who have been previously threatened or assaulted with firearms or weapons also are at increased risk (Block, 2004;Block & Christakos, 1995;Campbell et al, 2003;Jurik & Winn, 1990;Kozio-McLain et al, 2006;Strack, McLean, & Hawley, 2001;Thomas, Dichter, & Matejkowski, 2011). Furthermore, research indicates that proactive police responses, increased legal sanctions, and improved social services have resulted in fewer homicides of men (see Campbell et al, 2007).…”

Confronting the Complexities of Domestic Violence: A Social Prescription for Rethinking Police Training

This article reviews current research on domestic violence with an eye toward its use in developing state-of-the-art police training. The authors argue that four general presuppositions about domestic violence need to be reexamined to develop adequate police training that enhances detection, investigation, and prosecution of these crimes. Chief among these presuppositions are: (a) there is only one kind of domestic violence; (b) most domestic violence is relatively minor; (c) domestic violence is the same as other crimes; and (d) domestic violence calls are extraordinarily dangerous for police officers. We conclude that training on domestic violence is essential, given the changing nature of domestic violence legislation, the unique attention given to police responses, and the unique nature of the crime.
