The article assesses three approaches to domestic violence: two that use the concept of ‘coercive control’ and one that uses ‘domestic violent crime’. These are: Stark’s concept of coercive control; Johnson’s distinction between situational couple violence and intimate terrorism, in which coercive control is confined to the latter; and that of domestic violent crime, in which all physical viole...

Flexible high-loading nanoparticle-reinforced polyurethane magnetic nanocomposites fabricated by the surface-initiated polymerization (SIP) method are reported. Extensive field emission scanning electron microscopic (SEM) and atomic force microscopic (AFM) observations revealed a uniform particle distribution within the polymer matrix. X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS) and differential the...

Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), with their high power density, efficiency, and thermal stability, are widely used nowadays. PMSM magnets composed of rare earth elements. However, elements subject to severe price fluctuations because limited availability the monopoly some countries. Therefore, extensive research on devoid has been conducted recently. Although a irreversible demagnet...

We propose and study coercive subtyping, a formal extension with subtyping of dependent type theories such as Martin-LL of's type theory 38] and the type theory UTT 30]. In this approach, subtyping with speciied implicit coercions is treated as a feature at the level of the logical framework; in particular, the meaning of an object being in a supertype is given by coercive deenition rules for t...

BACKGROUND Children with developmental disabilities who exhibit challenging behaviour are potentially subject to the use of coercive interventions. The aim of the study was to investigate the prevalence of the use of coercive measures by authorities, according to parents' reports. MATERIALS AND METHODS A postal survey was distributed, as a total population study, to 946 Finnish parents of chi...

Coercive subtyping is a useful and powerful framework of subtyping for type theories. The key idea of coercive subtyping is subtyping as abbreviation. In this paper, we give a new and adequate formulation of T [C], the system that extends a type theory T with coercive subtyping based on a set C of basic subtyping judgements, and show that coercive subtyping is a conservative extension and, in a...

Conflict between parents and adolescents involves reciprocal exchanges in which family members influence and shape each other's behavior. This study uses multilevel path analysis to examine interrelations in observed behavior during 15-min conflict discussions conducted by 103 family triads, looking specifically at parent coercive and youth avoidant behaviors. We also explore the moderating rol...

Abstract During the past 30 years, bureaucratic managerialism has reshaped how prison staff maintain order. Policies and graduated disciplinary models have replaced coercive methods, reducing use of force by against incarcerated people. Managerialism, however, disguises deep problems in interpretation enforcement use‐of‐force policies. Drawing on 131 semistructured interviews with Canadian corr...

Results In the group of 2,587 involuntarily admitted patients (average age: 38.2 y) coercive measures were used in 32.2% of them (in 55% of men and 45% of women). The frequency of the use of coercive measures in individual centers varied substantially between 9.1% in Slovakia and 59.2% in Poland. In the majority of patients more than one coercive measure was applied. In 9 centers the most frequ...
