NPOV

The in response section is extremely biased and not written with a NPOV. Michael H 34 (talk) 14:57, 28 January 2009 (UTC) Michael H 34[reply]

Agree: The effectiveness quotes alone cast doubt that the model works. For NPOV, the article needs a cleanup with emphasis on recent rigorous scientific studies bearing more weight. Its founder casts doubt that the model had confirmation bias at the end of the article: “ Eventually, we realized that we were finding what we had already predetermined to find."[20]”

Article does not describe the Duluth model

This article, despite being almost a page long, completely fails at the basic task of an encyclopedia: Properly describing the subject.

All we get is one sentence: "This experimental program, conducted in Duluth, Minnesota in 1981, coordinated the actions of a variety of agencies dealing with domestic conflict". We also learn that it "is based on a "violence is patriarchal" model".

This is not nearly enough. What does the Duluth model actually do? How would I notice the Duluth model being implemented? Who would act differently if the Duluth model was implemented?

As a reader who did not know the Duluth model before visiting this page, I feel that I learned nothing. --Xeeron (talk) 15:58, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I came here to say the same thing. This page never actually describes the Duluth model or what it is. Srnec (talk) 16:09, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to make it clearer Aapjes (talk) 11:10, 2 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added an implementation section to help alleviate this problem. I don't know enough about the practical implications of a legal system which follows the Duluth model however the fact that I cannot find such information on this page shows that such a section is required. 71.246.206.64 (talk) 04:24, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Agree a basic description of the model is needed. Is the model non biased, or does it favour one group of victims?

Multiple references to one newspaper article

And no reference to the actual studies that article refers to. Has no-one managed to *find* these studies? jae (talk) 10:20, 7 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because it is a great reference page to study the Duluth model. The people requesting its deletion are ideologues who will split hairs until pigs fly. If they would like to add content from their own sources and perspectives they are free to do that. What they don't want are people educating themselves and learning about their model. I see that the person requesting deletion was writing about it being a coordinated community response and trying to split hairs about that. The reality is the it is less of a "community" response and more of a bureaucratic response. It is a system whereby the arrested are sold at auction to the nearest treatment bidder. There is plenty of valid criticism against the Duluth model, especially where it concerns LGBT issues. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.2.21.226 (talk) 06:15, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yep its probably Evergreen doing his best to coverup anything that makes brainwashed lefties look bad. Same with Cultural Marxism, which allegedy "Doesn't exist" ahahaha. Better delete this page!!! It's waking too many people up!!1 Let's all pretend Duluth model doesn't exist and isn't real !!!

The deletion discussion is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Duluth model, so that is where you should post your opinion. If you base your opinion there only on your personal belief about people being brainwashed you are unlikely to get much support, so you should base it on reliable sources.

Reference 17 Probably Needs Removal

Batteredmen.com has been taken over by a lingerie company, and the link is now to a list of fetish gear. Kakrofoon (talk) 00:49, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done, replaced with a link to the same paper on ResearchGate. the wub "?!" 00:53, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This entry is filled with incorrect information

The Duluth Model is the Coordinated Community Response, the most widely emulated approach to domestic violence on earth. It’s not one batterer program curriculum. It seems that someone who wants to sell a batterer program is highly invested in presenting inaccurate information on this page. Sharpcheeser (talk) 23:01, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain more? -- Python Drink (talk) 20:41, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Citation from 2006 in the lede

"As of 2006, the Duluth Model is the most common batterer intervention program used in the United States.[4]" This is minor compared to the other discussion on this page, but still: 2006 was sixteen years ago. Do we have a more recent source on this? If so, this might be worth updating. Fyrius (talk) 14:43, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reference 6 should have a disclaimer

Reference 6 is www.theduluthmodel.org, which is obviously going to be biased in favor of the model. It should probably noted somewhere in the article that Reference 6 is the official website. 174.242.133.62 (talk) 18:44, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed content

I ask Risky texter to discuss their preferred edits here rather than edit warring. Thanks, Generalrelative (talk) 21:30, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If the author of a specific model uses extremely strong language and scientifically valid arguments that "debunk" the model, it should be added since otherwise its not accurately displaying the scientific validity of the claims. Risky texter (talk) 21:47, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(the author and others authoritative instances/..) Risky texter (talk) 21:48, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you show that the preponderance of reliable secondary sources use this language? If so, I'll be on board. But a single source is not going to cut it. At most it might be due for an attributed opinion. Generalrelative (talk) 23:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
