“…The current study replicated the PTSD-IPV relation that has previously been found in a mixed-gender community sample (Christopher, Pflieger, Canary, Guerrero, & Holtzworth-Munroe, 2008), among women arrested for IPV (Stuart et al, 2006), community and clinical samples of men (Taft et al, 2007, 2008), and male veterans (Marshall et al, 2005). Unlike other studies, a substantial proportion of participants were recruited from relatively rural communities, adding to the generalizability of the observed PTSD-IPV relation and the sparse literature on the needs of rural populations.…”

“…The current sample was composed of approximately 75% women, which is representative of the PTSD sex ratio in the general population (Olff et al, 2007), and the processes examined in the current study did not differ as a function of gender, further extending generalizability of the findings. Furthermore, this is the first study to link PTSD and IPV perpetration in a mixed-gender community sample using the CAPS, rather than brief self-report inventories (Christopher et al, 2008; Taft et al, 2008). Such scales are typically intended to be used as screening instruments and do not demonstrate better positive predictive power than measures of general distress (Shalev, Freedman, Peri, Brandes, & Sahar, 1997).…”

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may produce internal “threats to the self,” which generate shame. Shame is theoretically and empirically linked to intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration. We examined relations among PTSD, cognitive processing of shame-relevant information, and IPV perpetration. Forty-seven community participants completed an emotional Stroop task with shame-relevant and neutral words. Stimuli were presented supraliminally (i.e., until vocal response) and subliminally (i.e., below an individualized threshold of conscious awareness). Facilitated color-naming of shame-relevant words (thought to reflect congruence between shame and self-schemas) mediated the relation between PTSD severity and IPV perpetration frequency. Mediation results for subliminal stimuli suggest that biased processing of shame cues may occur preconsciously and potentially catalyze processes (i.e., expectations of rejection in ambiguous situations with one's partner; avoidance that minimizes discomfort and protects self-image) that lead to IPV perpetration. Psychotherapeutic approaches to PTSD and IPV should consider the role of facilitated processing of shame cues.

“…Prior writings also suggest that sexual IPA by husbands may be fostered by a view that marriage brings entitlement to sexual pursuits (for a discussion see Martin et al 2007). Although more sexual IPA was perpetrated by husbands, the present findings also add to a small but growing literature suggesting that wife-perpetrated sexual coercion is not a rare occurrence (Christopher et al 2008;O'Leary and Williams 2006). In addressing this issue, some have suggested that women engage in verbal sexual coercion to achieve greater emotional intimacy with their partners (Schatzel-Murphy et al 2009).…”

“…The association between mental health problems and IPV have been examined as both a risk factor (Capaldi, 1997;Kim & Capaldi, 2004) and as a consequence of the violence (Christopher, 2008;Kar 2010, Laurent, Renner, Tran et al, 2012and Vaeth et al, 2010.…”

IntroductionBidirectional violence is not a recent phenomenon. Nonetheless, little attention has been given to the actual dyads of intimate violence. The aim of the present review is therefore to identify and examine research that involves both the male and female partner of couples experiencing problems with intimate partner violence (IPV).MethodA thorough literature search was conducted in the electronic databases PubMed and PsycINFO. This review includes only peer-reviewed articles conducting quantitative data analysis. The key inclusion criteria were the concept of bidirectional violence. Therefore, this review only includes studies where both partners participated in the study. A total of 70 studies were included.ResultsA wide variety of psychological, social, and interaction variables were identified. Especially challenges related to alcohol, attachment, communication, jealousy, mental health and relationship satisfaction were identified. Results sheds light on how conflicts escalate and are important aspects of how IPV patterns are developed.DiscussionThe present review demonstrates the importance of incorporating partner dynamics into our understanding of IPV. By putting less emphasis on the prevalence rates and instead focus more on the dynamics of the relationships, IPV appears to be a symptom of a variety of problems within the dyad. Therefore, it would be beneficial to target preventive efforts and interventions towards both members of the couple to directly address the unhealthy dynamics that are contributing to a pattern of IPV.
