这项研究以 92 名男性和 140 名女性大学生为样本,主要考察了亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 中的性别对称性以及之前研究中发现的性别歧视态度与 IPV 之间不一致的关系。结果表明,尽管在与亲密伴侣的关系中施暴和受害的男性和女性人数相当,但路径模型表明,女性的暴力往往是对男性暴力的反应,而男性往往先发起暴力,然后其伴侣以暴力回应。研究表明,善意的性别歧视对于防止男性对伴侣的暴力行为具有保护作用。研究结果强调了不仅在男性暴力的背景下而且在更广泛的社会文化背景下研究妇女暴力的重要性。
This study of a predominantly Hispanic sample of 92 male and 140 female college students examines both gender symmetry in intimate partner violence (IPV) and inconsistent relationships found in previous studies between sexist attitudes and IPV. Results indicate that although comparable numbers of men and women perpetrate and are victimized in their relationships with intimate partners, the path models suggest that women's violence tends to be in reaction to male violence, whereas men tend to initiate violence and then their partners respond with violence. Benevolent sexism was shown to have a protective effect against men's violence toward partners. Findings highlight the importance of studying women's violence not only in the context of men's violence but also within a broader sociocultural context.
