Risk Factors for Reabuse in Intimate Partner ViolenceA Cross-Disciplinary Critical ReviewGeorge Mason University, lcattane{at}gmu.edu
Boston College, goodmalc{at}bc.edu The identification of factors that contribute to reabuse in cases of intimate partner violence is a critical research aim in a variety of disciplines. Such information would have relevance in many contexts where systems or professionals struggle to intervene in such cases, especially in the context of limited resources. This article crosses disciplines to take stock of this body of literature and provide a road map for future research. We include literature in the areas of batterer treatment effectiveness, the effectiveness of criminal and civil court remedies, the evaluation of victim services, and the course of violent relationships over time absent any intervention. We describe the key dimensions along which these studies vary and detail the range of predictors examined by the studies, identifying the most consistent findings. Finally, we make recommendations concerning the methodology and content of future studies.
Key Words: risk factors • reabuse • repeat assault • intimate partner violence • violence prediction • danger assessment
