Abstract

This comment reviews the article by Brown (1982) on police responses to wife beating. It points out the various conceptual and methodological flaws in the study. The flaws pertain to: a lack of theoretical rationale, measurement error, superficial data analysis, and unsubstantiated conclusions.
