亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）是一个普遍的社会问题，影响受害者，家庭和社区。从承认这种现象是一个社会问题开始，调查试图回答有关程度，流行程度以及影响这种行为的可能社会和心理因素的问题。本研究提出了一种基于统一概念的IPV问题的方法：社会隔离。作者认为，社会隔离概念的效用在于它能够概括IPV的关键社会结构和社会心理相关因素。这项研究的主要目的是研究在何种程度上的作用，社会隔离预测IPV不同的城市/农村背景。关键变量的测量数据来自全国家庭和住户调查的第一波和第二波以及1990年人口普查。多变量分析的结果表明，只有一些措施的社会支持（隔离）有统计学意义，只有在农村（非大都市）县的家庭。
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a pervasive social problem that affects victims, families, and communities. Beginning with the acknowledgment of this phenomenon as a social problem, investigations have attempted to answer questions regarding the extent, prevalence, and the possible contributing social and psychological factors that influence this behavior. This study proposes an approach to the problem of IPV based on a unifying concept: social isolation. The authors argue that the utility of the concept of social isolation lies in its ability to encapsulate critical social-structural and social-psychological correlates of IPV. The main objective of the study is to examine the extent to which the role of social isolation in predicting IPV varies by urban/rural context. Measures of key variables were obtained from Waves 1 and 2 of the National Survey of Families and Households and the 1990 census. Results of multivariate analyses indicate that only some measures of social support (isolation) are statistically significant and only for families within rural (nonmetropolitan) counties.
