Development of the Partner Violence Perpetration Among *

正如要求提出这些建议的呼吁中明确表示的那样，关于促使成年男性实施亲密伴侣暴力的风险和保护因素的数据非常缺乏。在这一领域的少数以前的研究没有包括IPV的主要社会背景，通常包括这些生态层内的一个非常狭窄的范围内的因素，并没有检查保护因素。查明保护因素被认为对制定有效的预防方案特别重要。我们提出了一项混合方法的回顾性队列研究，研究对象为18-35岁（年龄 Iroup发现犯下IPV在最高的利率; N=4000）参加八个社区健康中心内的种族/伦理多元化的社区在波士顿地区评估风险和保护因素犯下IPV。将收集关于发展途径和社会背景（包括个人，家庭，同伴和社区层面）的定量调查数据，假设与IPV犯罪有关。此外，我们将收集定性数据，从深度访谈的男子（n=80）参与定量调查选择的两个犯非犯IPV，但报告类似的风险概况，以阐明保护因素/机制，并提供定量数据的背景/意义。我们还将利用这个混合数据集来评估IPV犯罪和其他形式的犯罪的相互关系。 暴力（自杀、性暴力、虐待儿童、一般暴力）。最后，我们将评估IPV发病的风险和保护因素与接受治疗的男性人群的相关性，即，通过对参与社区卫生中心服务的社区内的五个打人者干预方案的18-35岁男子（n=450）进行定量调查，从这些社区登记参加打人者干预方案。这种比较对于确定所确定的风险和保护因素是否与目前针对殴打女性伴侣的男性的干预措施有关至关重要。

As clearly expressed in the call for these proposals, data on the risk and protective factors that contribute to the development of intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration among adult males are woefully lacking. The small number of previous studies in this area have failed to include major social contexts for IPV, have typically included a very narrow range of factors within these ecologic strata, and have failed to examine protective factors. Identifying protective factors is considered especially critical to constructing effective prevention programming. We propose a mixed-methods retrospective cohort study of men ages 18-35 (age Iroup found to perpetrate IPV at the highest rates; N=4000) attending eight community health centers within racially/ethically diverse neighborhoods in the Boston area to assess risk and protective factors for perpetration of IPV. Quantitative survey data will be collected regarding developmental pathways and social contexts (including individual, family, peer, and community levels) hypothesized to relate to IPV perpetration. Additionally, we will collect qualitative data from in-depth interviews of men (n=80) participating in quantitative surveys selected for both perpetration non-perpetration of IPV, but reporting similar risk profiles to elucidate protective factors/mechanisms and provide context/meaning for quantitative data. We will also utilize this mixed dataset to assess interrelations of IPV perpetration and perpetration of other forms of violence (suicide, sexual violence, child maltreatment, general violence). Finally, we will assess the relevance of findings regarding risk and protective factors for IPV perpetration to the population of men in treatment, i.e., enrolled in batterer intervention (BI) programs from these same communities via quantitative surveys of men ages 18-35 (n=450) participating in five BI programs situated within communities served by participating community health centers. This comparison will be vital to determining whether the risk and protective factors identified are relevant to present interventions for men who batter their female partners.
