abstract="Qualitative research on batterer intervention programs (BIPs) has primarily consisted of interview-based studies of clients and facilitators. To date, no  research has utilized observational data to understand how BIPs &quot;work,&quot; or the  processes occurring in BIPs that promote prosocial behavioral change. Forty-four  observations of BIP group sessions were conducted. Two key processes were found:  &quot;facilitator processes&quot; (e.g., managing group dynamics and engaging clients in  learning) and &quot;client processes&quot; (e.g., mutual aid, help-seeking, and support). More  observational research on BIPs is needed to uncover the full range of processes  occurring during BIPs and that can link group processes to client outcomes.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
