battered person syndrome
Battered person syndrome is a physical and psychological condition of a person who has suffered (usually persistent) emotional, physical, or sexual abuse from another person.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=battered-person syndrome legal definition )〕 It is classified as ICD-9 code "Battered person syndrome" not elsewhere classified (NEC).
The condition is the basis for the battered spouse defense that has been used in cases of physically and psychologically abused spouses who have killed their abusers. The condition was first researched extensively by Lenore E. Walker, who used Martin Seligman's learned helplessness theory to explain why abused spouses stayed in destructive relationships.〔Walker, Lenore E. (1979). ''The Battered Woman''. New York: Harper and Row.〕
==Diagnosis==
ICD9 code 995.81〔ICD-9-CM: International Classification of Diseases, 9th revision; Clinical Modification, 6th edition, 2006 / Practice Management Information Corporation (PMIC). Published Los Angeles, CA : PMIC, C2005. Online Edition.
http://icd9.chrisendres.com/index.php?action=search&srchtext=995.81〕 shows the syndrome as including "battered person/man/spouse syndrome NEC", and any person presenting with identified physical descriptors rather than psychological descriptors falls under the general heading of "Adult physical abuse", classified under "Injury and Poisoning".〔http://icd9.chrisendres.com/index.php?action=child&recordid=7942〕 DSM-IV-TR does not provide a distinct diagnostic category for reactions to battering. Rather the diverse reactions of battered people are treated as separate diagnoses, for example, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or depression.〔Roth D. L. & Coles E. M. (1995).
