School Bullying Perpetration and Other Childhood Risk Factors as Predictors of Adult Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration

Factors associated with physical or sexual intimate partner violence perpetration by men attending substance misuse treatment in Catalunya: A mixed methods study

“…The importance of negative childhood experiences was also consistent across models. This fits with previous research that has suggested that parental separation/divorce (Dutton and Golant, ) and experiencing childhood sexual or physical abuse (Falb et al, ) are associated with later partner violence. It may be that this is mediated through substance misuse.…”

Examining the Relationship between Bullying Experiences, Parental Partner Violence, and Partner Violence in Young Adulthood

“…Our next hypothesis was partially supported as well. Frequency of bullying perpetration in adolescence was significantly associated with IPV perpetration in young adulthood, which is consistent with previous research supporting a relationship between the two (Falb et al, 2011).…”

The prevalence and factors associated with ever perpetrating intimate partner violence by men receiving substance use treatment in Brazil and England: A cross‐cultural comparison

“…This relationship could be mediated through substance use, with more severe dependence reported by substance users who have experienced childhood abuse . Forty percent of male IPV perpetrators are also violent towards their children which is a significant risk factor for IPV perpetration, mental health and substance use problems in adulthood .
