“…This relationship has been identifi ed in the general population (Caetano et al, 2005), clinical populations (Fals-Stewart et al, 2005), and among college students (Nicholson et al, 1998;Shook et al, 2000;Williams and Smith, 1994). IPV perpetrators are fi ve times more likely than nonperpetrators to consume alcohol (Luthra and Gidycz, 2006;O'Leary, 1989, 1996). Cogan and Ballinger (2006) found that men with alcohol problems were generally more likely to commit violence against their intimate partners.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective:The present research examined the role of self-determination theory in alcohol consumption and intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration among college students. We were interested in evaluating the extent to which individual differences in self-determination (i.e., autonomous and controlled orientations) may infl uence problematic alcohol use and male-to-female IPV perpetration and the extent to which problem drinking may mediate the associations between self-determination and IPV perpetration. Method: A total of 313 incoming heterosexual, male freshman drinkers at a large northwestern university between the ages of 18 and 21 years completed self-report measures of autonomous and controlled orientations, alcohol use, and IPV perpetration as part of a larger social norms intervention study. Analyses evaluated the infl uence of autonomous and controlled orientations on alcohol consumption, associated problems, and IPV perpetration. Results: The proposed model fi t the data relatively well, χ 2 (11, N = 313) = 32.19, p = NS, root mean square error of approximation = .079, normed fi t index = .95, nonnormed fi t index = .93, comparative fi t index = .96. Both autonomous and controlled orientations had signifi cant direct and indirect effects on perpetration through alcohol consumption. Although the model fi t the data well, it explained a relatively small amount of variance in both alcohol consumption (5%) and perpetration (7%). Conclusions: Findings support previous research implicating the role of alcohol in IPV perpetration. Additionally, our fi ndings suggest that self-determination theory may be a useful heuristic in the examination of individual characteristics that promote alcohol consumption and IPV perpetration.

“…Riggs and O'Leary (1989) proposed a comprehensive conceptual model of dating violence in which alcohol was one potential situational factor that could contribute to dating violence. In an empirical examination of this model, a partner's violent behavior, relationship length, and childhood abuse and neglect in addition to alcohol use contributed to dating violence perpetration (Luthra & Gidycz, 2006). These factors, along with other potential situational and contextual factors that may explain the violence that occurred in the absence of alcohol (e.g., reasons for violence, whether violence was perpetrated by both partners, which partner initiated violence), should be examined more thoroughly in future event-level studies.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: Alcohol intoxication has been associated with dating violence perpetration, defi ned here as psychological and/ or physical violence occurring between young adult dating partners. However, little is known about how the individual variability in the level of alcohol intoxication would infl uence dating violence perpetration and how sex and self-regulation might infl uence this association. Method: College-aged men and women (N = 146) from a large southwestern U.S. university completed background questionnaires, including the Brief Self-Control Scale, to assess self-regulation and then reported their dating violence perpetration and alcohol consumption using a 90-day Timeline Followback assessment. Their average estimated blood alcohol concentration (eBAC) and their daily deviation from this average were calculated for each of the 90 days to examine the between-and withinperson effects of alcohol consumption, respectively. Results: Results of a two-level generalized estimating equation suggest that increases in daily eBAC were associated with an increased likelihood of perpetrating dating violence; however, this association was stronger for those who had a low average eBAC compared with those who had a high average eBAC. For those who had a low average eBAC, higher self-regulation was associated with a lower probability of perpetrating dating violence, whereas among those with a high average eBAC, self-regulation was not associated with dating violence perpetration. Sex did not moderate the association between eBAC and dating violence perpetration. Conclusions: Findings highlight the importance of self-regulation in dating violence perpetration-particularly for those with low average eBACs-and the need for varied intervention strategies, depending on one's typical drinking pattern.

“…The fact that more females than males reported physical dating violence perpetration did not surprise us, however, as more than 15 prior studies have also found female adolescents to report more dating violence perpetration than males. 24,34,36,[57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69] As stated in the Introduction, it is our view that the prevention of "common" dating violence is important and merits research attention because of the potential for even non-severe physical violence to result in harm, and because it has the potential to normalize the use of physical assault in all types of interpersonal relationships.…”

Neighborhood-Level Factors Associated with Physical Dating Violence Perpetration: Results of a Representative Survey Conducted in Boston, MA

Neighborhood-level characteristics have been found to be associated with different forms of interpersonal violence, but studies of the relationship between these characteristics and adolescent dating violence are limited. We examined 6 neighborhood-level factors in relation to adolescent physical dating violence perpetration using both adolescent and adult assessments of neighborhood characteristics, each of which was aggregated across respondents to the neighborhood level. Data came from an in-school survey of 1,530 public high school students and a random-digit-dial telephone survey of 1,710 adult residents of 38 neighborhoods in Boston. Approximately 14.3% of the youth sample reported one or more acts of physical aggression toward a dating partner in the month preceding the survey. We calculated the odds of past-month physical dating violence by each neighborhood-level factor, adjusting for school clustering, gender, race, and nativity. In our first 6 models, we used the adolescent assessment of neighborhood factors and then repeated our procedures using the adult assessment data. Using the adolescent assessment data, lower collective efficacy (AOR=1.95, 95% CI= 1.09-3.52), lower social control (AOR=1.92, 95% CI=1.07-3.43), and neighborhood disorder (AOR=1.19, 95% CI=1.05-1.35) were each associated with increased likelihood of physical dating violence perpetration. However, when we used the adult version of the neighborhood assessment data, no neighborhood factor predicted dating violence. The implications and limitations of these findings are discussed.
