Qualitative research on batterer intervention programs (BIPs) has primarily consisted of interview-based studies of clients and facilitators. To date, no research has utilized observational data to understand how BIPs "work," or the processes occurring in BIPs that promote prosocial behavioral change. Forty-four observations of BIP group sessions were conducted. Two key processes were found: "facilitator processes" (e.g., managing group dynamics and engaging clients in learning) and "client processes" (e.g., mutual aid, help-seeking, and support). More observational research on BIPs is needed to uncover the full range of processes occurring during BIPs and that can link group processes to client outcomes.
对施虐者干预项目 (BIP) 的定性研究主要由对客户和辅导员的基于访谈的研究组成。迄今为止，尚无研究利用观察数据来了解 BIP“如何运作”，或在促进亲社会行为改变的 BIP 中发生的过程。对 BIP 小组会议进行了 44 次观察。发现了两个关键过程：“辅导员过程”（例如，管理小组动态和使客户参与学习）和“客户过程”（例如，互助、寻求帮助和支持）。需要对 BIP 进行更多的观察研究，以揭示 BIP 过程中发生的全过程，并将小组过程与客户结果联系起来。
