“…Aldarondo notes, "The combined use of structured instruments and interview assessment yields additional acts of aggression and intimidation and a better understanding of the context for the physical aggression and its consequences than either technique alone" (1998, p. 442). See Aldarondo (1998) and Aldarondo & Straus (1994) for a detailed description of a number of written instruments, including their validity and reliability.…”

“…This last point is critical. In addition, clinical experience suggests there are two types of batterers that are particularly dangerous, each of which constitute one-quarter of batterer samples (Aldarondo, 1998;Eisikovits & Edleson, 1989;. The dysphoric/borderline batterer is characterized by compromised attachment issues, inability to trust, some paranoia andor pathological jealousy, and borderline or schizoid features.…”

As family therapists begin to experiment with couples treatment models for batterers and their partners, a basic question is: Which couples can be safely treated with conjoint therapy? Following a definition of battering and a review of rationales for considering couples therapy in cases of domestic violence, a framework for assessment of domestic violence is outlined, including sample questions, criteria for excluding couples from conjoint therapy, how to conduct a lethality assessment, and how to conceptualize postassessment treatment recommendations. This article also introduces family and couples therapists to domestic violence literature that is often not well integrated in family therapy theory and practice.

“…Such typologies could help identify different processes leading to gender violence (what is important for the development of one type of batterer may be irrelevant for the development of other types) and could also support the development of specific treatment practices for different male batterers (Aldarondo, 1998).…”

The aim of this study was to analyze the differential profile of male batterers in prison with and without psychopathy. The sample consisted of 162 perpetrators sentenced for a serious offence against their intimate partner. The prevalence of psychopathy or psychopathic traits, established according to the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised, was about 12%. The psychopathic batterers were younger, more impulsive, more suspicious, and less empathetic and had lower self-esteem than nonpsychopathic batterers. However, the psychopathic batterers were not engaged in intimate femicide more often than were the nonpsychopathic batterers. The severity of the crime was similar in both groups, so it may be attributed to other variables (e.g., substance abuse, intoxication at the time of the offence, violence history, jealousy, etc.). Implications of these results for further research and clinical practice are discussed.

“…Students can discuss the nonverbal and verbal cues that indicated the presence of abuse, the manner in which the therapist handled Introduce written assessment devices. As a multimodal assessment of partner abuse is recommended, the instructor can introduce students to several written instruments (see Aldarondo, 1998;Aldarondo & Straws, 1994;Gottman, 1999).…”
