TY - JOUR PY - 2003// TI - Stopping wife abuse via physical aggression couples treatment JO - Journal of aggression, maltreatment and trauma A1 - Schlee, Karin A1 - Heyman, Richard E. SP - 135 EP - 157 VL - 7 IS - 1-2 N2 - The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of an empirically tested program for physical aggression: Physical Aggression Couples Treatment (PACT). Although we do not advocate standard "marital therapy" when there is ongoing husband-to-wife interspousal aggression, we present the rationale for, description of, and empirical support for a conjoint treatment approach to wife abuse abatement.
