这项研究调查了男性针对儿童母亲的性亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)是否与儿童的适应问题有关，以及性IPV是否增加了儿童适应问题的风险，而不是仅仅与身体IPV相关的风险。参与者是539名母亲和她们的孩子(7-10岁)的社区样本。母亲和儿童报告了儿童的外化和内化问题。母亲们报告了最近男性犯下的身体和性IPV以及她们自己的心理困扰(抑郁症状、关系不满意)。根据母亲对IPV的报告，形成了四个小组：非暴力、仅限身体、仅限性行为和性+身体。与非暴力组的儿童相比，仅限身体、仅限性和性+身体组的儿童表现出更高水平的外化问题。仅限身体和仅限性行为的儿童的外化问题水平没有差异。将性IPV纳入儿童接触IPV的概念中，可能会更全面地了解儿童如何受到IPV的影响。
This study examined whether male-perpetrated sexual intimate partner violence (IPV) directed at a child’s mother is associated with children’s adjustment problems and if sexual IPV increases risk for children’s adjustment problems over and above the risk associated with physical IPV alone. Participants were a community sample of 539 mothers and their children (age 7–10 years). Mothers and children reported on children’s externalizing and internalizing problems. Mothers reported on recent male-perpetrated physical and sexual IPV and on their own psychological distress (depressive symptoms, relationship dissatisfaction). Four groups were formed on the basis of mothers’ reports of IPV: nonviolent, physical only, sexual only, and sexual+ physical. Children in the physical-only, sexual-only, and sexual+ physical groups exhibited greater levels of externalizing problems than did children in the nonviolent group. Levels of externalizing problems among children in the physical-only and sexual-only groups did not differ. Including sexual IPV in the conceptualization of children’s exposure to IPV may offer a more comprehensive understanding of how children are affected by IPV.
