Completing batterer intervention programs significantly reduces reassault risk by 44-64%. Program length did not impact effectiveness, suggesting a moderate program effect despite participant challenges.

Area of Science:

  • Criminology
  • Psychology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Previous evaluations of batterer intervention programs (BIPs) indicate minimal effectiveness.
  • Analytical limitations, such as accounting for program dropout, may compromise prior findings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To re-evaluate BIP effectiveness using instrumental variable analysis.
  • To address analytical issues, specifically the link between program dropout and recidivism.

Main Methods:

  • Instrumental variable analysis was employed in a multi-site evaluation of three gender-based, cognitive-behavioral BIPs.
  • The study included 640 participants across three established programs.

Main Results:

  • Program completion was associated with a 44% to 64% reduction in reassault likelihood.

  • Program duration (3, 5.5, or 9 months) did not significantly alter effectiveness.

    • Conclusions:

    • BIPs demonstrate a moderate, positive effect on reducing batterer reassault.
    • Findings suggest the need for advanced analytical methods to accurately assess program impact.
    • Despite participant challenges and criminal justice inconsistencies, BIPs show promise.
