“…While programs are available in many communities to try to ensure the safety of women in situations of violence, fewer resources have focused on interventions with the men who batter (Babcock, Greene, & Robie, 2004;Tilley & Brackley, 2005). As advocates, public health practitioners, and researchers, we might heed the words of the women in this program for our future work and develop and scientifically test more effective ways to include men in our work.…”

Violence against women is a major influence on women's mental health. We used popular education techniques to train 14 Spanish-speaking women as promotoras (community health workers) to increase awareness about violence against women in low income Texas communities. These women then conducted over 80 presentations in Spanish in local community settings. The impact of the program on the promotoras and on women attending the presentations was evaluated using qualitative methods. This research lends support to the idea that nurses working in community mental health settings must use innovative primary prevention strategies and evaluation mechanisms to change awareness about violence against women.

“…Another study simply observed that male perpetrators saw themselves as moral people whose violence occurred in the context of their fulfilling their role as the provider and protector for the family (Dempsey & Day, 2011). These studies, and others (e.g., Tilley & Brackley, 2005), provide consistent evidence that IPV offenders hold similar sets of core beliefs about themselves, the world, and their violence that can help to account for the continuation of IPV. These networks of beliefs that support, facilitate, or legitimize offending are considered to be key risk factors for offending and it has been suggested that different sets of belief are associated with different offense pathways.…”

The paucity of studies focused on the relational and contextual factors related to adolescent and young adult male interpersonal violence perpetration confounds efforts to develop effective prevention and intervention strategies (Silverman et al, 2001;Sturdevant et al, 2001;Wingood, DiClemente, McCree, Harrington, & Davies, 2001).…”

The purpose of the current study was to examine qualitatively the life contexts of young males enrolled in programs addressing perpetration of intimate partner violence (IPV). Semistructured interviews were conducted with 19 males recruited from these programs. Interviews were coded to examine life contexts and analyzed using a content analysis approach. Five themes emerged across interviews: ( a) disruptive home environment; ( b) lack of positive male role models; ( c) a peer context characterized by substance use, gang involvement, and behaviors supporting the sexual maltreatment of girls; ( d) school circumstances characterized by a lack of academic support; and ( e) community exposures to violence. These factors were often interrelated within the various contexts of participants. Further research is needed to provide insight into whether and how these issues may contribute to IPV perpetration. Efforts to support young males regarding a broad array of concerns should be included in programming to reduce IPV perpetration.
