Researchers examining court dispositions and domestic violence recidivism have argued that disposition effectiveness varies by offender characteristics. We extended this research with analyses of 3,662persons arrested for misdemeanor assaults on intimates in Hamilton County, Ohio. The incidence, prevalence, and time to rearrest are examined for arrestees with no filed charges, subsequently dropped charges, court-mandated treatment, probation, jail, and split sentences. No filed charges and probation correspond with significant differences in all outcomes across the entire sample. Moreover, every disposition coincides with differences in rearrest for particular subgroups of arrestees (distinguished by violent histories, substance abuse, cohabitation, race, education, residential stability, and characteristics of neighborhood populations).

Actual Life

Israel is a transitional society with a range of fluctuating social phenomena. Second couplehood in old age, as a case in point, can be located in the ambiguous space between non-normative and normative. The aim of this article is to describe and discuss how couples navigate that space. Data were collected within the framework of a larger qualitative study on second couplehood in old age among 20 couples in Israel. Forty individual semi-structured interviews were conducted, tape recorded and transcribed verbatim. Strategies of bridging between the normative script and the ambiguities surrounding actual life were identified. Bridging was achieved by accounts and secrecy. The discussion focuses on the transitional social context of second couplehood in old age in the Israeli society.
