This article was written quite well. The statistical data in your first paragraph is very helpful, and gives the background that is needed. However, there were a few times when you reference something, and I would prefer to know who said it, or where it came from. The context of some of your facts needs to be explained better. All in all i think that you did a great job. Erinbb1 (talk) 05:26, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Erinbb1: Can you be specific (provide an example) on where "the context of some of your facts needs to be explained better."? Elaboration of this feedback would help.BerikG (talk) 05:49, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

I wanted to better understand where these facts were coming from. However, after reading some feedback on my own page, I perhaps was off base and thinking more in a scholarly writing style as opposed to a encyclopedia article. Erinbb1 (talk) 00:25, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Erinbb1: Thank you for your input. I think it may be effective to give a little more background onto who is doing this research. In some instances this may be effective.

This is an informative article, but needs some revisions. 1) the lead paragraph has some dated info which needs to be put as historical info dating from the early 1990s (e.g. "As of the early 1990s, it was reported that...". 2) the Nature of domestic violence section could include some discussion of capabilities approach perspective (e.g. bodily integrity as a capability that should be promoted everywhere/freedom to live free of domestic violence) and cite the Nussbaum article. This is where you would add the intrinsic goal of reducing domestic violence. 3) Economic contributing factors do not include a discussion of women's economic power, whether employment, higher earnings or asset ownership reduce domestic violence. If you could locate an article on this topic for Chile it would be useful. If you cannot find a Chile-specific article, then you can add something like "In other parts of the world there is some recent evidence to support reduced violence in cases where women own assets (e.g. Panda and Agarwal 2005)". Also, econ contributing factors suggest violence is more likely in poor households, whereas the lead paragraph suggested it cuts across class. Of course, cuts across class does not mean it is equally prevalent in all social classes, but you should make this clear. 4) Organizational change: Consequences of domestic violence (i.e. Economic impacts) has to come before Policies to address it. In other words, there needs to be a problem stated first and then discussion of solutions should be discussed. BerikG (talk) 04:20, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

There are a few recent articles on this topic for example (if you narrow Google Scholar search to 2012 or more recent): Journal of Urban Health 2012 (Kim et al. "Association of Neighborhood Characteristics and Domestic Violence in Santiago, Chile")BerikG (talk) 04:34, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

What about violence against men?

it has been shown that women commit most of the domestic violence, and do most of the child murders.

What makes men so sub human and women so extra human? Why frame domestic violence as only something women suffer from? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.187.175.129 (talk) 06:51, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
