Abstract
Professionals must consider the issues of the woman's degree of learned helplessness, her system of causal attribution, and her locus of control in assessing a battered woman's psychological readiness for treatment. An appraisal of those dynamics has great implication for efficacy and efficiency of treatment.Keywords
