Partner violence against heterosexual and gay men: Prevalence and correlates (2012, background): “As there are fewer services available to men, and men are generally less likely to report their victimization, or to be assisted by the police (Brown, 2004; Cheung, Leung, & Tsui, 2009; Laroche, 2005), it is likely that samples do not accurately represent the prevalence or severity of IPV in male vi”
Prevalence of Physical Violence in Intimate Relationships, Part 2: Rates of Male and Female Perpetration (2012, background): “Yet, both criminal and civil justice systems are less responsive to allegations of female-perpetrated IPV (Basile, 2004; Brown, 2004; Henning & Renauer, 2005; Muller, Desmarais, & Hamel, 2009), and few treatment programs specifically address the needs of women who use violence against men (Carney,…”
A review of the evidence on the effects of intimate partner violence on men. (2011, background): “For example, Brown (2004) noted gender discrepancies in the arrest for and prosecution rate of spousal assault.”
Women who perpetrate intimate partner violence: A review of the literature with recommendations for treatment (2007, background): “Law enforcement is lax when men are injured in domestic violence disputes (Brown, 2004; Buzawa & Buzawa, 1990). When Dwayne Bobbit had his penis cut off by his wife in 1993, it became material for late night comedy routines, and his wife was found not guilty by reason of temporary insanity. This rea”
Developmental Antecedents of Interpartner Violence in a New Zealand Birth Cohort (2008, background): “However, this excess may reflect the fact that females may report perpetration more readily than males because of social sanctions against male perpetrated IPV (Brown 2004; Dutton and Nicholls 2005; Stets and Straus 1990).”
A literature review of intimate partner violence and its classifications (2016, background): “…also acknowledges that violence can be perpetrated by men as well as women without restriction to marital, heterosexual, or homosexual relationships (Anderson, 2002; Archer, 2000, 2002; Brown, 2004; Capaldi, Kim, & Shortt, 2007; Capaldi & Owen, 2001; Hamberger & Potente1994; Straus & Gelles, 1986).”
The Duluth model: A data-impervious paradigm and a failed strategy (2007, background): “Ignoring the selection factors this sample poses (of differential calling of police (Stets & Straus, 1992) and differential likelihood of arrest (Brown, 2004)), and stating that women arrested for IPV are too rare to study, they continue to defend the patriarchy position.”

Transforming a flawed policy: A call to revive psychology and science in domestic violence research and practice (2006, methodology): “Dutton and Browning (1988) showed videotaped husband–wife conflicts to wife assaulters and control males. The assaultive males reported significantly higher levels of anger, especially in response to an “abandonment” scenario than controls. Dutton and Sonkin's (2003) application of attachment theory”
The gender paradigm in domestic violence research and theory: Part 1—The conflict of theory and data (2005, background): “Four other surveys in Canada that reported both male to female and female to male violence also found higher rates of female perpetrated violence (Bland & Orn, 1986; Brinkerhoff & Lupri, 1988; DeKeseredy & Schwartz, 1998; Grandin & Lupri, 1997).”
