Do cultural differences influence batterer intervention program outcomes?: a study with Spanish and Latin American offenders
2015
En este estudio se analiza, en primer lugar, si existen diferencias entre hombres latinoamericanos inmigrantes y españoles condenados por violencia contra la mujer en las relaciones de pareja, en relación a sus actitudes hacia la violencia (i.e., gravedad percibida, culpabilización de la víctima y aceptabilidad de la violencia), atribución de responsabilidad, sexismo y riesgo de reincidencia al inicio de un programa de intervención con maltratadores. En segundo lugar, se comprueba si existen diferencias al finalizar la intervención en los resultados del programa entre inmigrantes latinoamericanos y nativos. Para ello se utiliza una muestra de 278 participantes que han finalizado un programa…

Recidivism risk reduction assessment in batterer intervention programs: A keyindicator for program efficacy evaluation
2014
AbstractThe evidence available on the efficacy of batterer intervention programs is still limited. The aim of the present study is twofold: (1) to analyze change in a set of intervention targets and their association with reconviction in a batterer intervention program implemented in Spain, and (2) to analyze pre-treatment participants’ characteristics linked with an increased likelihood of change. The research design was a prospective longitudinal study with measures obtained in two points in time (pre-treatment and post-treatment). Self-report measures, trained program staff assessment, and reconviction official records were used. Participants consisted of 212 offenders participating in a…

Cognitive flexibility and reaction time improvements after cognitive training designed for men perpetrators of intimate partner violence: results of …
2022
AbstractPurpose Current interventions for intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators are designed to reduce IPV recidivism by treating risk factors and increasing protective factors. However, these interventions pay less attention to cognitive functioning in IPV perpetrators and how these variables interfere with the future risk of recidivism. Therefore, the main objective of this research was to compare the effectiveness of Standard Intervention Programs for men who perpetrate IPV [SIP] + cognitive training vs SIP + placebo training in promoting cognitive improvements and reducing recidivism. Furthermore, we also aimed to assess whether changes in the risk of recidivism would be related …
PREDICTING SUCCESS INDICATORS OF AN INTERVENTION PROGRAMME FOR CONVICTED INTIMATE-PARTNER VIOLENCE OFFENDERS: THE CONTEXTO PROGRAMME
2013
Recent legal changes in Spain have led to an important increase in the number of men court-mandated to community-based partner violence offender intervention programmes. However, just a few of those interventions have been systematically examined. This study aims to predict success indicators of an intervention programme for convicted intimate-partner violence offenders. The sample consisted of 212 convicted intimate-partner violence offenders who participated in the Contexto Programme. Three "intervention gains" or target criteria were established (increasing the perceived severity of violence, increasing the responsibility assumption for one's actions, and reducing the risk of recidivism)…
