本文是对392名受虐妇女在全面的家庭暴力协议下获得的服务进行生态研究。它侧重于受虐妇女与受虐妇女服务和法律制度之间的微观系统相互作用。我们研究了妇女从受虐妇女机构获得服务、获得保护令和完成对施暴者的起诉之间的关系。我们还探讨了妇女接受服务和保护令与其伴侣随后被捕和与警方接触之间的联系。我们与受虐妇女和受虐妇女机构的工作人员进行了开放式访谈，以扩大和说明定量数据。分析表明，当一名妇女接受受虐妇女服务或获得保护令时，结案的可能性更大，被捕人数也会增加。我们发现，当女性同时接受受虐妇女服务和至少一项保护令时，这些联系最为强烈。
This paper is an ecological study of services provided to 392 battered women under a comprehensive domestic violence protocol. It focuses on microsystemic interactions between battered women and battered women's services and legal systems. We examine the relationships between women's receipt of services from a battered women's agency, receipt of protective orders, and completion of prosecution of batterers. We also explore the associations between women's receipt of services and protective orders and their partners' subsequent arrests and police contacts. We use open-ended interviews with battered women and with staff of the battered women's agency to expand and illustrate the quantitative data. The analysis shows that when a woman received battered women's services or had a protective order, a completed court case was more likely and numbers of arrests rose. We found that these associations were strongest when women received both battered women's services and at least one protective order.
