Effect of Procedural Justice in Spouse Assault in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 1987-1989
The purpose of the research project was to examine the
extent to which the perception of procedural fairness by suspects
arrested for spouse assault effectively inhibited their subsequent
violence. The data for this study were collected for the MILWAUKEE
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE EXPERIMENT, 1987-1989 (ICPSR 9966), which was
conducted from April 1987 to August 1988. In this experiment, all
cases of misdemeanor domestic battery where probable cause to arrest
existed were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: (1) warning
with no arrest, (2) arrest with a brief detention period (average of 3
hours), and (3) arrest with a longer detention period (average of 11
hours). Variables include demographic and background information, as
well as descriptive variables pertaining to the domestic violence
incident.
