Abstract: | Controlling behaviors have been found to be a significant predictor in IPV perpetration (IPV) for both males and females.
Studies have also revealed the relationship between IPV perpetration and masculinity among males; however, the literature
has not investigated the relationship between masculinity and IPV perpetration among females. Additionally, studies have not
explored the effects of controlling behaviors and masculinity on different types of IPV, such as physical and sexual perpetration.
The present study investigated the relationship between controlling behaviors, masculinity, past victimization, and three
types of IPV perpetration among 167 college students. Multivariate analyses revealed significant contributions of each factor
varied according to the type of IPV perpetration (psychological, physical, and sexual). Implications from the results include
the development of more inclusive violence prevention and intervention programs aimed addressing the perpetration of intimate
partner violence. |
