SUBIRANA-MALARET, Montse e ANDRES-PUEYO, Antonio. Proactive retention and therapeutic adherence in programs for male perpetrators of intimate partner violence. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2013, vol.22, n.2, pp.95-104. ISSN 2173-4712. https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/in2013a12.
Adherence to treatment in intervention programs for male perpetrators of intimate partner violence is one of the most relevant factors of the effectiveness of prevention of intimate partner violence. Despite controversies arising from different studies on this subject, there is unanimity in highlighting the key role that participants' motivation plays in adherence to treatment and program completion. Techniques ensuring participants' motivation in therapeutic programs include proactive retention techniques. In this paper we analyze the effect of proactive retention techniques at the beginning and throughout the treatment sessions in an intervention program for male perpetrators of intimate partner violence. The results indicate that both proactive retention techniques and support influence adherence to treatment.
