Half of all attempts to exit an abusive relationship later result in reunion with the aggressor.
“In fact, several studies have demonstrated that half of all the attempts to exit an abusive relationship later result in reunion with the aggressor (e.g., Anderson & Saunders, 2003;Lerner & Kennedy, 2000;Martin, Berenson, Griffing, Sage, Madry, Bingham & Primm, 2000).”

“Theoretical and empirical work (e.g., Miller and Rollnick, 1991; Prochaska and DiClemente, 1982, 1986) suggests that ambivalence is to be expected and may, if dealt with effectively, ultimately reinforce both the desire and the ability to overcome the obstacles to permanent change.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
