“…As already suggested, the use of averaged scores (e.g., husbands' selfreports of aggression and wives' reports of their husbands' aggression, and vice versa) overcomes to some extent the problem of moderate agreement between spouses' reports on marital aggression (Browning and Dutton, 1986;Jouriles and O'Leary, 1985;Szinovacz, 1983), and provides a more reliable method of scoring the CTS (Horowitz et al, 1979;Strahan, 1980). The benefits of scoring each item on a trichotomous scale were also presented.…”

“…Given the problem of modest agreement between spouses in reports of marital behaviors in general (Jacobson and Moore, 1981), and marital aggression in particular (Browning and Dutton, 1986;Jouriles and O'Leary, I985;Szinovacz, I983), Hornang et aL's (t98i) revision is preferable because it provides self-and spouse ratings of marital aggression. Thus, in the present study, averaged couple data (i.e., husbands' self-rating and wives' ratings of the husband; wives' self-ratings and husbands' ratings of his wife) were used in generating separate indices of husbands' and wives' aggression.…”

“…That is, the prevalence of interpartner aggression is dependent on whether respondents rate whether aggression has ever occurred in their relationship, or whether aggression has occurred in a limited time period, such as the previous year (e.g., Straus et al, 1980). Second, prevalence rates are dependent on the source of the information, as there is only moderate agreement between partners in reports of aggression (Browning and Dutton, 1986;Jouriles and O'Leary, 1985;Szinovacz, t983)~ More importantly, prevalence rates are also a function of the definition and assessment of interpartner aggression. The present study will focus on relationship aggression as defined by the CTS.…”

“…Browning 65 found that in 30 couples, in which the male was in treatment for domestic violence, the wives rated significantly more violence for their husbands than their husbands rated for themselves [F(3, 87) = 26.045; p < 0.001]. However, there was no difference between the husband rating the wife with the wife's own rating.…”

HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeT he Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service'. The HTA programme is needs led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of project...
