Personality disorder features have been an important basis of many batterer typologies (Babcock et al. J Fam Violence 15:391–409,
2000; Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart Psychol Bull 116:476–497, 1994), most notably Antisocial and Borderline Personality Disorders. Aggression that partner violent men commit has also been
found to be heterogeneous, motivated by the need to control (proactive) or enacted out of emotion (reactive). In the present
study, men who were physically abusive towards their female partner (N = 124 couples) were administered the SCID-II diagnostic interview for Antisocial (ASPD) and Borderline Personality Disorder
(BPD). It was hypothesized that partner violent men diagnosed with ASPD would show highest levels of proactive violence whereas
men diagnosed with BPD (alone or comorbidly with ASPD) were expected to be reactively violent. Results suggest that violence
perpetrated by men with different personality disorders differs in its function. Within the context of intimate relationships,
BPD/comorbid men appear to use violence more reactively, while ASPD men tend to use violence both proactively and reactively.
Implications for treatment are discussed.

Research investigating women’s risk assessments for intimate partner violence (IPV) shows that women can predict future violence
with relative accuracy. Limited research has investigated factors that are associated with perceived risk and the potential
behavioral consequences of victim risk perception. Results from a survey of women in a domestic violence shelter (N = 56) indicated that women perceive lower risk of future violence if the abusive relationship were to end and higher risk
of violence if it were to continue. Certain abuse experiences were related to elevated perceptions of personal risk for future
violence. Further, perceived personal risk predicted the women’s intention to terminate their relationship upon leaving shelter.
Results are discussed as they may inform interventions preventing IPV.

The Migrant Clinicians Network’s Familias con Voz (Families with a Voice) project aims to train migrant men and women to become intimate partner violence (IPV) peer educators
in their communities. In preparation for implementing educational activities, a community survey was conducted with 298 participants
in three Texas border counties. Verbal abuse, such as name calling, was the most frequent type of violence reported. Men perceived
anger as a cause of partner violence significantly more than women. Only 22% of respondents reported knowing of a shelter
they could turn to for help. Surprisingly, a majority of participants cited “seeking help from the police” when asked about
ways to decrease partner violence. Survey results offer insight into developing effective intervention programs by capturing
the intended audiences’ beliefs and attitudes. Additionally, survey results reveal possible strategies for how to tackle IPV
in U.S.-Mexico border migrant farmworker communities.

The Revised Conflict Tactics Scales (CTS2) are widely used to measure intimate partner aggression. Various aspects of the
CTS2 and its subscales have been examined, e.g. factor structure, internal consistency, and validity, but little or no evidence
exists regarding the stability of the self-report of aggression on the CTS2 This study examines the stability of reports of
aggression against a partner on the CTS2 among 82 men court-mandated to a batterer intervention program. At both testing times
men reported on aggression occurring in the year prior to beginning treatment. Using variety scores, stability of report was
strong for psychological aggression (r = 0.69), physical assault (r = 0.76), injury (r = 0.70), and negotiation (r = 0.60), but weaker for sexual coercion (r = 0.30). Implications for the use of the CTS2 in court-mandated populations are discussed.

This representative national survey examined incidence of husband-to-wife violence in the past year, lifetime exposure to
parental violence, and the relationships between victimization experiences of family violence and mental health among South
Korean women (N = 1,079). The major findings were that incidence rate of husband-to-wife violence among Korean women was 29.5%, which was
much higher than those of other nations, and that their experiences of physical violence by husbands in the last year and
lifetime verbal abuse by parents had strong associations with the mental health of victims. The findings suggest that preventive
intervention programs for male perpetrators as well as domestic violence victims with mental health problems and comprehensive
interventions for Korean couples are urgently needed. In addition, parents should be educated about how to modify their children’s
behavior without physical punishment or verbal abuse.

This study examined self-reported early exposure to violence in the family of origin and positive attitudes towards marital
violence as risk factors in court-referred Chinese immigrant male batterers (N = 64) versus controls (N = 62). Early exposure to violence was positively correlated with marital violence, but it alone did not differentiate the
batterers from the controls, as both groups were widely exposed to it. While it was significantly correlated with marital
violence in the batterer group, it was significantly correlated with depression in the control group. Positive attitudes towards
marital violence were not only correlated with marital violence but also sufficient to differentiate the batterers from the
controls. It also partially mediated the effect of early exposure to violence on marital violence. These two risk factors
together accounted for 21.9% of the variance in marital violence over and above sociodemographic variables and marital dissatisfaction.
Research and treatment implications based on these findings were outlined.

Intimate partner violence (IPV) by women against men has been the subject of much debate. Feminists typically argue that IPV
is committed only by men against women. Others argue that violence is a human problem and women also commit much IPV. To resolve
these debates, IPV has been classified into two categories: common couple violence captured by population-based studies, and
patriarchal terrorism, captured by studies of battered women. This typology ignores male victims of extreme IPV. The current
study addresses this omission by describing 190 male callers to the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men. All callers experienced
physical abuse from their female partners, and a substantial minority feared their wives’ violence and were stalked. Over
90% experienced controlling behaviors, and several men reported frustrating experiences with the domestic violence system.
Callers’ reports indicated that their female abusers had a history of trauma, alcohol/drug problems, mental illness, and homicidal
and suicidal ideations.

Growing up in a violent home predisposes children to a host of behavioral and emotional difficulties. This study examined
whether perpetrator and victim gender have an impact on depressive symptoms and aggressive behavior for victims of child physical
abuse (CPA) and also with regard to witnessing interparental violence (IPV). This study also examined whether witnessing siblings
being abused would elicit high levels of depressive symptoms and aggressive behavior. College students (n = 675) were assessed for both exposure to IPV and child physical abuse prior to age 18. Participants completed measures of
depression and aggression. With regard to victims of CPA, participants victimized by both parents and those victimized by
mothers only had significantly higher levels of aggression. For depressive symptoms, females having both parents as perpetrators
or fathers only had significantly higher depressive symptoms. With regard to witnessing IPV, being abused by both parents
was associated with endorsement of more aggression and depressive symptoms. With regard to witnessing sibling violence, the
results were similar to those found for victims of CPA.

Animal abuse and family violence appear to be “linked” and tend to co-occur in the same households. Companion animals are
often regarded as family members, if not by the abuser, then by others within the family. Consequently, in families where
any given form of violence exists, animal abuse is also more likely to exist. This paper examines animal abuse in the context
of abusive home environments, and the relationship between an abusive home in childhood and the range of behavioral problems
that may extend into adulthood. Existing investigations are reviewed with reference to prevalence, epidemiology, and child
development theory. It appears that holistic interventions to counter abusive home environments may represent the most effective
way to break the association between animal cruelty and interpersonal violence, by addressing the shared situational characteristics
common to a range of violent behaviors.

Using four categories of accuracy (true positive, false positive, true negative, false negative), this study explored (1)
how accurately intimate partner violence (IPV) victims are able to assess their risk of re-abuse; and (2) potential predictors
of accuracy. Women seeking help for IPV (N = 246) rated the likelihood that they would experience physical re-abuse in the coming year and then reported 18 months later
whether those risks had been realized. Victim assessments were more likely to be right than wrong, and were subject to neither
a pessimistic nor optimistic bias. In the multivariate analysis, significant/marginally significant predictors of the accuracy
categories were the history of violence from this and former partners, level of substance use, PTSD symptoms, and the recency
of the violence. Among the more robust findings were the connection between level of stalking and true positives, and between
substance use and false negatives. This study suggests that victim assessments have significant potential to inform practice,
and deserve further exploration.

While separate evidence exists that married military women have high rates of both intimate partner violence victimization
and aggression, little is known about the context of this violence, including the extent to which the violence committed toward
and by military women is physical, psychological or sexual, whether the violence is unilateral or bi-directional, and the
extent of injury sustained or inflicted. In order to gain a more multi-dimensional understanding of the violence in the lives
of military women, this study involved 248 enlisted females who completed a self-report survey about themselves and their
spouses’ behavior. Results indicate that the majority of violence reported was bi-directional and symmetrical in terms of
type and level of severity. However, enlisted females were more than three times as likely to be victims of unilateral severe
violence as their male civilian spouses. Demographic factors associated with these patterns of violence were also identified.

Scholarship, policy and practice relating to domestic violence have all seen many changes in the recent past. The definition
of domestic violence is often wide ranging describing physical violent within an adult (married) couple to the inclusion of
intergenerational abuse and violence. As a result of feminist interventions a gender-based approach to domestic violence is
now well established. Most research using this model shows that the majority of victims are women and most perpetrators are
men. This impacts upon the policies, initiatives and service provision. One consequence is that it fails to explore the possibility
of women’s different experiences of domestic violence. The point of departure for this paper is that it fails to take account
of domestic violence in lesbian partnerships. Using data generated by way of an annual analysis of counselling cases of generated
by a German lesbian specific social services agency and data from focussed interviews with 20 lesbians who have been violent
to their lesbian partners this article offers a range of new insights into the nature and experiences of domestic violence
in same sex domestic relationships and considers the significance of this data in relation to policing and other modes of
intervention to bring that violence to an end.

A total of 31 Chinese community members (8 males and 23 females) were recruited from three social service agencies in San
Francisco (Donaldina Cameron House, Richmond Area Multi-Services, and St. Mary’s Chinese Center) to participate in a study
examining the relationship between problem gambling and intimate partner violence (IPV). A survey approach was taken which
assessed the participants’ demographic characteristics including age, gender, country of birth, and employment, as well as
factors relating to their intimate partners, including partner’s alcohol abuse and problem gambling. Younger participants
and those whose partners were problem gamblers were more likely to experience IPV. However, partner’s problem gambling was
a significant predictor only at the ten-point cutoff on the South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS) (Lesieur and Blume, American Journal of Psychiatry, 1987) and not at the five-point cutoff. Chinese participants whose partners were problem gamblers (SOGS ≥ 10) were 27.5 times
more likely to experience IPV. Findings are discussed and social work practice, policy, and research implications are highlighted.

Dating Violence Victimization,Relationship Satisfaction,Mental Health Problems,and Acceptability of Violence: A Comparison of Men and Women 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two of the most common reported consequences of dating violence are its impact on the victim’s satisfaction with their romantic
relationship and its impact on the victim’s mental health. Recent research suggests that the strength of these relationships
may be moderated by the degree to which the dating violence is acceptable to the victim. However, studies of these relationships
have been limited to samples of women. The purpose of the present research was to examine the relationships among dating violence
victimization, relationship satisfaction, mental health problems, and acceptability of violence for a sample that includes
not only female victims, but also male victims. Using a sample of 155 male and 417 female college students, hierarchical regression
analyses found that dating violence victimization is associated with relationship satisfaction and mental health problems
for both men and women. For men, acceptability of violence moderated the relationship between dating violence victimization
and the mental health problems of depression, anxiety, and somatization. For women, acceptability of violence moderated the
relationship between dating violence victimization and relationship satisfaction only.

This paper introduces the concept of “altruism born of suffering,” and provides a review and integration of relevant research
and theories from various disciplines. In contrast to the well-supported notion that prosocial behavior is rooted in positive
experiences, whereas violence and adversity often contribute to further violence and antisocial behavior, it is proposed that
suffering may actually enhance the motivation to help other disadvantaged members of society, including outgroups. A motivational
process model is presented that includes a typology of altruism born of suffering, integrates clinical and social psychological
perspectives on underlying processes, and proposes potential mediators and moderators. Relevant empirical studies are reviewed
that provide initial support for this model. A particular emphasis is placed on victims of group-based violence, and implications
for intergroup relations and social justice.

A quasi-experimental study was conducted to investigate the impact of referral to supplemental mental health treatment for
batterer program participants who screened positive for mental health problems. The principal outcome measure was re-assault
reported during a periodic 12-month follow-up with female partners (n = 308). Batterer program completion and other abuse indicators were also considered. Mandatory court referral to mental health
treatment produced no significant improvement in batterer program completion, re-assault and other abuse indicators. These
results may be influenced by the low compliance to the referral, since the select number of men who did comply with a mental
health evaluation (n = 48 of 148) and those who received treatment (n = 28 of 148) did better than those who did not. Simplified referral procedures or integrated treatment services might prove
to be a more effective approach.

This article employs a developmental risk and resilience framework to examine the impact of exposure to intimate partner violence
on young children, particularly those facing economic hardship. In doing so, it reviews and weaves together two separate literatures,
one on emotional and behavioral development in high-risk settings and the other on children exposed to adult domestic violence.
The article ends by pointing to the need for further research and the promise that early interventions hold for helping children
who are exposed to intimate partner violence and living in poverty.

This study proposes an empirical analysis of the relation between the prices of illegal drugs and the use of violence to administrate
the markets of illegal drugs. The study hypothesizes that the prices of illegal drugs affect the level of violent crime, since
changes in profitability of the drugs’ markets affect the offenders’ expected utility of using violence to operate in these
markets. An increase (or decrease) in prices would raise (or reduce) the offenders’ expected utility of making use of violence,
for instance, to solve disputes over drugs, to conquer more market shares, to defend ones own market share, in short to make
use of systemic violence (Goldstein, P.J. Journal of Drug Issues, 39:143–179, 1985). The study will analyze the relation between the dynamics of cocaine and heroin’s prices and systemic violence in the United
States of America and in Europe over two decades. The correlational and inferential analyses do support the hypothesis for
certain offenders’ profiles and certain murders’ circumstances.

The stereotype of the strong, independent, and invulnerable African American woman may have implications in violent intimate
partner relationships. More specifically, one behavioral manifestation of this stereotype is that African American women may
be more likely to “fight back” in domestic violence situations. However, little is known about the consequences of these self-protective
behaviors for African American women. To this end, this study will address whether forceful and nonforceful acts of resistance
result in the desired effect of avoiding injury. Using a sample of incarcerated African American women, this study examines
the effects of self-protective behaviors on injury for a marginalized population at a high risk of violence.
