Domestic Violence: Guidelines for Research-Informed Practice

This title describes developed intervention programmes which have been shown to be effective for reducing the incidence, severity or impact of domestic violence in particular populations. The book also features assessment programmes that identify risk profiles.

Existing services for support to victims of domestic violence frequently have minimal impact on reducing either the frequency or severity of domestic violence. As a result, science-practitioners in this field have developed clinical research programmes to inform key practice issues and improve these services. This title describes developed intervention programmes which have been shown to be effective for reducing the incidence, severity or impact of domestic violecne in particular populations. The book also features assessment programmes that identify risk profiles.
