The primary objective of this study was to test the effects of historical male partner violence and lawyer representation on post-separation male partner violence and coercive control against mother litigants participating in adversarial family court proceedings. Toward this end, staff at two women's shelters administered a questionnaire to 40 former residents who met the sample selection criteria. Two findings are noteworthy. First, there was a decrease in mother litigant reports of post-separation physical violence requiring a visit to a hospital. Second, post-separation male partner coercive control "most/some of the time" was reported by 97.5% of all 40 separated mother litigants who also reported experiencing historical coercive control by their male partners. Recommendations and limitations are described in the final two pages.
本研究的主要目的是检验历史上男性伴侣暴力和律师代理对参与对抗性家庭法庭程序的离异男性伴侣暴力和强制性控制的影响。为此，两家妇女收容所的工作人员向符合样本选择标准的 40 名前居民发放了一份问卷。有两个发现值得注意。首先，母亲诉讼人报告的需要去医院治疗的离异后身体暴力有所减少。其次，97.5%的所有 40 名离异母亲诉讼人均报告经历过其男性伴侣的历史强制性控制，她们报告离异后男性伴侣的强制性控制“大部分/有时”。最后两页描述了建议和局限性。
