摘要

本研究考察了家庭暴力风险评估工具(FVRAT)预测家庭暴力重复的准确性。FVRAT是澳大利亚首都地区警察使用的一项包含37个项目的工具，以告知他们如何应对家庭暴力。本研究调查了2017年3月至12月期间涉及现任或前任亲密伴侣的350起独特暴力案件的样本，其中警方使用了FVRAT。重复家庭暴力的衡量标准是随后是否在六个月内向警方报告了家庭暴力。FVRAT并不是重复家庭暴力的有力预测指标。然而，由10个单独预测项目组成的经验改良版的FVRAT更准确地预测了家庭暴力的重演。

Predicting repeat domestic violence: improving police risk assessment

This study examines how accurately the Family Violence Risk Assessment Tool (FVRAT) predicts repeat domestic violence. The FVRAT is a 37-item tool used by police in the ACT to inform their responses to domestic violence. This study examines a sample of 350 unique cases of violence involving current or former intimate partners between March and December 2017 in which police used the FVRAT. Repeat domestic violence was measured based on whether a subsequent report of domestic violence was made to police within six months. The FVRAT is not a strong predictor of repeat domestic violence. However, an empirically refined version of the FVRAT consisting of 10 individually predictive items much more accurately predicts repeat domestic violence.
