V.1. Thesis - Professionals' attributions and referral decisions in cases of domestic violence -- v.2. Professional portfolio - Risk-need and good lives principles in sex offender treatment |
| Summary |
This thesis is the first national study of workers who have contact with victims and perpetrators of domestic violence. It highlights that the victim and perpetrator's gender, as well as the relevant professional's agency type and experience, all influenced their attitudes to, and service delivery decisions with, domestic violence-related clients. The portfolio utilises four case studies to examine the way that two Victorian sex offender programs attempt to balance risk-need and good lives principles in the assessment and treatment of sex offenders |
