National Evaluation of the LEAA Family Violence Demonstration Program in Five Sites in the United States, 1980-1981
This study focused on the actuarial and situational
correlates of domestic violence and the variables that differentiate
those who batter their partners from those who are "generally"
violent. The study defined violence as physical violence and excluded
both psychological abuse and verbal threats. Domestic violence was
defined as a man battering his spouse or partner, while extradomestic
violence referred to the batterer's involvement in violence outside
the home, as reported by the victim of the domestic incident. The data
are victim reports concerning batterers collected through face-to-face
interviews with 270 former clients of Law Enforcement Assistance
Administration (LEAA)-funded family violence programs conducted
approximately three months following final contact with the program.
The data include demographic variables on both the LEAA-funded program
client and her partner, variables detailing the partner's domestic and
extradomestic violence, and variables on any services received by the
client.
