• Effects of Motivational Enhancement on Immediate Outcomes of Batterer Intervention (2011, background): “There are now over 40 published studies, five meta-analyses and numerous commentaries on this field of research (e.g., Babcock et al. 2004; Feder and Wilson 2005; Gondolf 2004; Scott 2004a).”
• Batterer intervention programmes: A meta-analytic review of effectiveness (2013, background): “Previous metaanalyses have identified moderators with significant positive effects with a small treatment efficacy effect size (Babcok et al., 2004; Feder & Wilson, 2005; Levesque & Gelles, 1998).”
• The weak evidence for batterer program alternatives (2011, background): “They show little or no effect compared to no treatment while on probation (see Feder & Wilson 2005).”
• Psychological Treatments That Cause Harm (2007, background): “For example, there are preliminary indications that (a) certain self-help programs (Rosen, 1987); (b) court-mandated treatment for spouse abusers (Feder & Wilson, 2005); (c) psychodynamic treatments for schizophrenia (Mueser & Berenbaum, 1990); (d) school-based prevention programs for antisocial…”
• The Duluth model: A data-impervious paradigm and a failed strategy (2007, background): “A more recent meta-analytic study (Feder & Wilson, 2005) also included the Gondolf results (Jones & Gondolf, 2002).”
• Program Completion and Re-Arrest in a Batterer Intervention System (2007, background): “However, a quasi-experimental design comparing completers to noncompleters is fraught with problems, because men who drop out of batterers’ programs often resemble men who re-offend in a number of ways (see Feder & Wilson, 2005).”
