“…However, this finding corroborates several others showing no association between IPA status and changes in the intensity of angry feelings experienced in the moment (Babcock, Green, Webb, & Yerington, 2005;Barbour et al, 1998;Eckhardt, 2007). In part, these findings may result from specific problems that IPA perpetrators have with emotional clarity and awareness (Shorey et al, 2011), which could interfere with accurate self-report of these experiences.…”

Objective: Drawing on Finkel and Eckhardt’s I3 theory (Finkel & Eckhardt, 2013), this experimental study examined the effects of emotion regulatory efforts on aggressive verbalizations during anger arousal. Methods: Participants were 236 male and female college students with and without a history of intimate partner aggression (IPA) perpetration. Participants were randomized to 1 of 3 emotion regulation strategy conditions: cognitive reappraisal, expressive suppression, or no instruction. They were trained to use these strategies in response to emotionally evocative dating scenarios presented via the Articulated Thoughts in Simulated Situations (ATSS) paradigm. Participants’ aggressive verbalizations in response to these scenarios were coded. Results: A significant interaction emerged such that IPA perpetrators trained to use cognitive reappraisal articulated fewer aggressive verbalizations than did non-IPA perpetrators; IPA perpetrators instructed to use expressive suppression tended to articulate more aggressive verbalizations than did non-IPA perpetrators. Conclusions: Findings lend support to some of the major tenets of the I3 model, and suggest that emotion regulation strategies may be important treatment targets for IPA perpetration.

“…Finally, when the levels of psychopathic traits were compared between partner-violent men and non-violent men, conflicting results were achieved: while Babcock et al (2005Babcock et al ( , 2008, Holtzworth-Munroe et al (2000), and Walsh et al (2010) failed to demonstrate the utility of psychopathy to identify partner-violent men among community samples (non-violent men were as psychopathic as some subtype of partner-violent men), Theobald et al (2015) reported higher levels of psychopathic traits among partner-violent than non-violent men.…”

Do different facets of impulsivity predict different types of aggression?

The current study examined the relations between impulsivity-related traits (as assessed by the UPPS-P Impulsive Behavior Scale) and aggressive behaviors. Results indicated that UPPS-P Lack of Premeditation and Sensation Seeking were important in predicting general violence. In contrast, UPPS-P Urgency was most useful in predicting intimate partner violence. To further explore relations between intimate partner violence and Urgency, a measure of autonomic response to pleasant and aversive stimuli and facets of Neuroticism from the NEO PI-R were used as control variables. Autonomic responsivity was correlated with intimate partner violence at the zero-order level, and predicted significant variance in intimate partner violence in regression equations. However, UPPS-P Urgency was able to account for unique variance in intimate partner violence above and beyond measures of Neuroticism and arousal. Implications regarding the use of a multifaceted conceptualization of impulsivity in the prediction of different types of violent behavior are discussed.Much research has focused on the origins of aggression, and a host of relevant factors has been identified (Anderson & Bushman, 2002). Although individual violent behavior is undoubtedly a result of a complex series of thoughts, emotions, and contexts, personality characteristics play an important role in predisposing individuals to aggression. Previous research in the traits associated with aggression has focused on several candidate areas, including hypermasculinity (Parrott & Zeichner, 2003), narcissism (Bushman & Baumeister, 1998), entitlement (Campbell, Bonacci, Shelton, Exline, & Bushman, 2004), and self-control (Caspi, 2000;DeWall, Baumeister, Stillman, & Gailliot, 2007; Gottfredson & Hirschi, 1990). Meta-analytic results indicate robust associations with the broad personality dimensions of Neuroticism, Conscientiousness, and Agreeableness from the Five Factor Model (Bettencourt, Talley, Benjamin, & Valentine, 2006;Miller & Lynam, 2001).Given the robust relations to aggressive and delinquent behaviors, early appearance in development, and overlap with domains of general personality, increasing attention is turning to the area of trait impulsivity as a predictor of aggressive behavior (Caspi, 2000;Krueger, Caspi, Mofitt, White, & Stouthamer-Loeber, 1996;Murphy & Eisenberg, 1997). New, multifaceted conceptualizations of impulsivity have recently been introduced, which have proved useful in predicting a variety of risky behaviors (Cyders & Smith, 2010;Whiteside & Lynam, 2001;Zapolski, Cyders, & Smith, 2009). Despite considerable work in this area, little research has attempted to understand how various aspects of impulsivity are Corresponding Author: Karen J.
