“…For those couples, psychological intimate partner violence (P‐IPV) could result from the escalation of dysfunctional verbal interactions (Bartholomew & Cobb, ). P‐IPV, defined as the use of verbal and nonverbal communication with the intent to emotionally harm and/or exert control over one's partner (Breiding, Basile, Smith, Black, & Mahendra, ), has been recognized as one of the most frequent and debilitating form of interpersonal violence with regards to one's physical and psychological health (Rogers & Follingstad, ). Even in its less severe and often normalized forms (e.g., insulting, yelling), P‐IPV is considered as particularly detrimental as it tends to evoke retaliation and rapidly escalates into more severe violent behaviors (Winstok, ).…”

Prior research has suggested associations between cumulative childhood trauma (CCT), negative urgency, communication patterns, and psychological intimate partner violence (P-IPV), but no study has examined these links using a dyadic approach. This study examined the sequential mediation of negative urgency and communication patterns in the link uniting CCT and P-IPV in a sample of 501 heterosexual couples. Results suggest that more CCT events are associated with higher levels of negative urgency, which in turn are associated with a higher tendency to endorse a demand/withdraw and/or demand/demand communication pattern, and to perpetrate P-IPV. Findings support the need to assess CCT, emotional self-control, dyadic and communication patterns, and P-IPV perpetration and victimization in couples seeking help in order to select interventions that will take into account the individual and dyadic nature of P-IPV.

The psychological subtype of intimate partner violence and its effect on mental health: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

et al. 2019

Background/aim Psychological violence is estimated to be the most common form of intimate partner violence (IPV). Despite this, research on the independent effect of psychological violence on mental health is scarce. Moreover, the lack of a clear and consistent definition of psychological violence has made results difficult to compare. The present study therefore aims to consolidate knowledge on psychological violence by conducting a systematic review and random-effects meta-analysis on the association between psychological violence and mental health problems, when controlling for other types of violence (e.g. physical and sexual) and taking into account severity, frequency, and duration of psychological violence. Method The present study is registered in the International Prospective Register for Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO; #CRD42018116026) and the study design follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA; Additional file 1 ). A dual search will be conducted in the electronic databases PsycINFO, PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science. Data will be extracted using Endnote and Covidence and a meta-analysis will be conducted using Metafor-package in the programming language R. The Quality Assessment Tool for Quantitative Studies developed by the Effective Public Health Practice Project will be used to assess the quality of the included studies (i.e. weak, moderate and strong). Results and discussion The present review will help consolidate knowledge on psychological violence by evaluating whether frequency, severity or actual “type” of psychological violence produces the most harm. A thorough quality assessment will help overcome potential limitations regarding expected variations in terminology and assessment of psychological violence. Systematic review registration PROSPERO CRD42018116026 .

“…Results from the present study show that women who had a sex partner ever threaten violence against them , a sex partner ever attempt violence against them , a sex partner ever become violent or had unwanted sex with a partner self-reported 14 or more mentally unhealthy days more than women who had not experienced IPV in these forms. Being threatened by a sexual partner is a form of psychological abuse experienced by IPV victims ( Rogers & Follingstad, 2014 ). Rogers and Follingstad (2014) assessed whether or not psychological abuse predicted mental health outcomes and concluded that women can report symptoms of anxiety, depression, and even suicidal ideation if they are threatened by their partner.…”

In regard to physical violence, having a sexual partner ever attempt to become violent or become violent has a direct effect on the mental health of female victims ( Karakurt et al, 2014 ).…”

Background:In the United States (U.S.), intimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious public health concern, mainly affecting the health and well-being of women. The objective of this study was to identify the IPV and socio-demographic factors associated with mentally unhealthy days among women in the U.S. of ages ≥18 years.Methods: Data for this study were obtained from the 2007 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Multivariable analyses were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for factors associated with IPV and 14 or more mentally unhealthy days per month. Analyses were conducted using SAS 9.3.
