“…Thus, it is important not to neglect motivational work with IPV perpetrators. Motivational Interviewing (MI) has demonstrated to be an effective method in working with this population, allowing the individuals to explore and resolve ambivalence toward change (Cunha et al 2023a, b;Cunha and Caridade 2023;Gonçalves et al 2020). However, in the absence of this motivation, a barrier is created to the potential development of behaviour and attitudinal change.…”

The study aimed to determine the short-term effects of the Short Motivational Program (SMP) in increasing motivation to change on intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators and to analyse its suitability and acceptability. Ten male IPV perpetrators sentenced to prison, aged between 26 and 64 years (M = 47.8; SD = 13.2), participated in the SMP. Baseline and post-test measures of recidivism risk, attitudes supporting IPV, and psychopathy were collected. The SMP revealed positive results, with participants showing a slight decrease in supportive IPV attitudes and IPV recidivism risk. The results of this study reinforce the need to implement motivational interviewing techniques among IPV perpetrators in order to achieve positive change in perpetrators and prevent future aggressive behaviour and reoffending. Future well-powered studies using a rigorous controlled design are also warranted.

Objectives This study examines the effectiveness of a multimodal perpetrator intervention program (PIP) on intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators' self-reported abusive behaviors, self-esteem, and self-concept. Methods A sample of 53 male IPV perpetrators, both court-and self-referred to a community-based PIP, were assigned to one of two conditions: intervention condition (IC; n = 38) and waiting list control condition (WLCC; n = 15). Data on self-reported intimate violence, self-esteem, and self-concept were collected at baseline, post-test, and 6-month follow-up. The Reliable Change Index (RCI) was also computed. Results A considerable percentage of IC participants end or substantially reduce their abusive behavior (reoffending self-reported rates were 10.7% at post-treatment and 12.5% at follow-up). IC participants increase self-esteem and self-concept. Changes were maintained at follow-up. Significant differences were found between the groups, with IC participants reporting reductions in abusive behaviors, scoring higher on selfesteem and self-concept, and revealing greater clinical changes than WLCC participants. Conclusions These findings suggest that multimodal interventions improve self-esteem and self-concept and reduce IPV perpetration.

Dropout in perpetrator intervention programs (PIPs) is extensively documented in the literature, yet findings across various studies exhibit global inconsistency. This meta-analysis aimed to identify dropout rates among individuals attending PIPs and examine sociodemographic, violence-related, intrapersonal, interpersonal, and external variables related to dropout. A search was conducted across six databases, encompassing studies published between 2010 and 2022 in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. Thirty manuscripts, comprising data from 31 independent samples, were included. Dropout rates varied from 9% to 67%. Bivariate analysis results indicated that younger age ( OR = 0.69), non-White ethnicity ( OR = 1.54), unemployment ( OR = 1.78), offender typology other than family only ( OR = 2.45), substance abuse ( OR = 1.78), presenting a personality disorder ( OR = 1.21), engaging in problematic leisure activities ( OR = 1.28), possessing a greater criminal history ( OR = 1.47), and experiencing more adversity in childhood ( OR = 1.44) were significantly correlated with dropout. Additionally, the inclusion of motivational strategies in treatment ( OR = 0.44) significantly decreased the likelihood of dropout. Results from multivariate analyses revealed that younger age ( OR = 0.63), presenting a personality disorder ( OR = 1.73), and experiencing more adversity in childhood ( OR = 2.16) were significantly associated with dropout. Notably, intimate partner violence characteristics established a significant negative relation with dropout ( OR = 0.59). Findings indicate that variables associated with dropout align with those related to general and intimate partner violence recidivism, suggesting that individuals requiring more intensive intervention are those who derive less benefit from it.
