一些研究描述了家庭暴力男子的类型。Holtzen-Munroe和Stuart（1994）最近提出了一个从人格“类型”预测暴力严重性和普遍性的理论模型。本研究使用833名确定的虐待男性的数据，对模型进行了测试。人格类型是通过对米隆临床多轴量表数据的聚类分析确定的，并产生了与Holtzle-Munroe和Stuart模型一致的三簇解决方案。三个主要的集群包括非病理性，反社会和被动的侵略依赖组。还发现了另外三种较小的类型。多变量和卡方分析比较其他变量的主要集群一般支持霍尔茨-门罗和斯图尔特模型。非病态男性的最大暴力和频率最低。他们的暴力行为主要限于亲密关系，与警察的接触最少。反社会和被动的侵略依赖的男人没有不同的最大暴力，但反社会的男人是最普遍的暴力，并有最多的警察接触。被动攻击依赖型男性的暴力频率最高。临床，理论和方法的影响进行了讨论。
A number of studies have described typologies of domestically violent men. Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart (1994) recently proposed a theoretical model for predicting violence severity and generality from personality “type.” The present study, using data from 833 identified abusive men, tested the model. Personality types were determined from cluster analysis of data from the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory, and resulted in a three-cluster solution consistent with the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart model. The three main clusters included nonpathological, antisocial, and passive aggressive-dependent groups. Three other, smaller types were also identified. Multivariate and chi-square analyses comparing the main clusters on other variables generally supported the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart model. Nonpathological men had the lowest maximum violence and frequency. They restricted their violence primarily to intimate relationships and had the fewest police contacts. Antisocial and passive aggressive-dependent men did not differ in maximum violence, but antisocial men were the most generally violent and had the most police contacts. Passive aggressive-dependent men had the highest frequency of violence. Clinical, theoretical and methodological implications are discussed.
