研究表明，女性对男性实施亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 的比例很高，这一点一直存在争议，因为 IPV 通常被认为是由社会父权结构和男性对女性的统治造成的。约翰逊（Johnson，1995）对常见夫妻暴力（CCV）和亲密恐怖主义（IT）的分类试图解决这一争议，但他坚持认为，这是由父权制造成的，而且几乎完全是由男性实施的。这项研究调查了约翰逊的理论，该理论适用于 302 名遭受女性伴侣感染 IPV 并寻求帮助的男性样本，以及社区男性的比较样本。结果显示，男性求助者样本由信息技术受害者组成，男性受害者的暴力行为是约翰逊所说的暴力抵抗模式的一部分。社区样本中参与 IPV 的男性符合 Johnson 对 CCV 的描述。讨论了承认女性使用严重 IPV 并控制针对男性伴侣的行为对研究、政策和实践的影响。
Research showing that women commit high rates of intimate partner violence (IPV) against men has been controversial because IPV is typically framed as caused by the patriarchal construction of society and men's domination over women. Johnson's (1995) typology of common couple violence (CCV) and intimate terrorism (IT) attempted to resolve this controversy, but he maintained that IT was caused by patriarchy and committed almost exclusively by men. This study investigates Johnson's theory as it applies to a sample of 302 men who sustained IPV from their female partners and sought help, and a comparison sample of community men. Results showed that the male helpseekers sample was comprised of victims of IT and that violence by the male victims was part of a pattern of what Johnson labels violent resistance. Men in the community sample who were involved in IPV conformed to Johnson's description of CCV. Results are discussed in terms of research, policy, and practice implications of acknowledging women's use of severe IPV and controlling behaviour against their male partners.
