By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: Bristol, England : University of Bristol in association with Northern Rock Foundation, 2009Description: electronic document (19 pages) ; PDF file: 257 KBSubject(s): Online resources: Summary: This research was commissioned by the Northern Rock Foundation to explore how male victims and perpetrators of domestic violence may differ from female victims and perpetrators with regard to the nature and number of domestic violence incidents recorded by the police. The report explores ‘who does what to whom’, taking into account both context and consequences. The research provides a unique picture of the nature of domestic violence reported to the police in England. Domestic violence is a pattern of behaviour over time, and the research reflects this by building a longitudinal picture (tracking cases over six years) rather than focusing merely on a snapshot or a single incident of domestic violence.
