Court-ordered treatment programs are a widely used response to intimate partner violence (IPV) and many states have developed standards to guide programs. The current study provides an update to Maiuro and Eberle’s. (2008) review of states’ standards and extends the literature by using the principles of effective intervention (PEIs; i.e., risk, need, responsivity, treatment, and fidelity) as an organizational framework to examine standards. Findings showed that 84% of states had standards in 2020, compared to 88% in 2007, and extensive changes both within and across states’ standards had occurred. Regarding the PEIs, in line with the risk principle most states mandated the use of risk assessments; inconsistent with the needs principle, few states used these assessments to classify clients into risk levels or inform individualized treatment. The majority of standards addressed the treatment principle by outlining a required structure and duration, but few attended to responsivity factors (e.g., identifying treatment modalities, attending to specific client factors). Regarding the fidelity principle, most standards outlined education or training requirements for staff and required periodic program reviews or audits, but few standards were evidenced-based and only about half required that programs collect data to measure effectiveness. Taken together, findings suggest that standards have continued to evolve and that the integration of PEIs into IPV treatment is only just beginning. Standards provide a rich opportunity for future researcher–practitioner partnerships in the field of IPV intervention.

法院命令的治疗计划是一种广泛使用的应对亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 的方法，许多州已经制定了指导计划的标准。当前的研究为 Maiuro 和 Eberle 的研究提供了更新。(2008) 通过使用有效干预原则（PEI；即风险、需求、响应度、治疗和保真度）审查各州的标准并扩展文献) 作为检查标准的组织框架。调查结果显示，与 2007 年的 88% 相比，84% 的州在 2020 年制定了标准，并且州内和州际标准都发生了广泛变化。关于 PEI，根据风险原则，大多数州强制使用风险评估；与需求原则不一致的是，很少有州使用这些评估来将客户分类为风险级别或告知个性化治疗。大多数标准通过概述所需的结构和持续时间来解决治疗原则，但很少涉及响应因素（例如，确定治疗方式，关注特定的客户因素）。关于忠实原则，大多数标准都概述了对员工的教育或培训要求，并要求定期进行计划审查或审计，但很少有标准是基于证据的，只有大约一半的标准要求项目收集数据以衡量有效性。总而言之，调查结果表明标准在不断发展，将 PEI 整合到 IPV 治疗中才刚刚开始。标准为 IPV 干预领域未来的研究人员-从业人员合作伙伴关系提供了丰富的机会。
