Binge Drinking in Couples and Intimate Partner Violence

描述（由申请人提供）：虽然频繁的大量饮酒模式与男性发生亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）有关，但对这些女性饮酒模式在IPV中的作用知之甚少。此外，几乎没有数据说明男女饮酒对两个成员的IPV犯罪和受害的共同影响。这项建议涉及三波纵向研究，旨在研究丈夫和妻子酗酒作为语言和身体的婚姻侵略的前瞻性预测。本研究强调执行性认知功能和负性情绪在酗酒与IPV关系中的调节作用。在方法上，这项应用涉及向社区抽样家庭邮寄调查表，以招募年龄在18至45岁之间的已婚或同居至少一年的夫妇。这些夫妇将接受关于丈夫和妻子饮酒行为的筛查。大约300个家庭，其中丈夫，妻子，双方，或都不符合酗酒的标准，将招募为期两年的纵向研究。这对夫妇将在基线和一两年后进行评估。评估将集中在执行认知功能，负面影响，言语和身体攻击，以及酒精相关的变量。此外，夫妇将接受采访，就最严重的语言和最严重的身体攻击事件的关系，以进行基于事件的分析。统计分析将探讨丈夫和妻子酗酒之间的关系，以及他们对丈夫和妻子的婚姻攻击的相互作用，以及是否ECF或负面影响调节这些关系。研究结果将提供重要的见解方面的作用，妇女的饮酒，单独和与男性的饮酒相结合，对IPV的发生。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Although frequent heavy drinking patterns are related to the occurrence of intimate partner violence (IPV) among men, the role of these women's drinking patterns in IPV is poorly understood. Moreover, there is little data that addresses the joint influence of men's and women's drinking on both members' IPV perpetration and victimization. This proposal involves a three wave longitudinal study designed to examine husband and wife binge drinking as prospective predictors of verbal and physical marital aggression. The project emphasizes the moderating influence of executive cognitive functioning and negative affect on the relationship between binge drinking and IPV. Methodologically, this application involves mailed questionnaires to a community sample of households to recruit couples who are married or have been living together for at least one year and are between the ages of 18 and 45. The couples will be screened with respect to husband and wife drinking behavior. Approximately 300 families in which the husband, the wife, both, or neither meet criteria for binge drinking will be recruited for a two year longitudinal study. The couple will be assessed at baseline and one and two years later. The assessments will focus on executive cognitive functioning, negative affect, verbal and physical aggression, and alcohol-related variables. In addition, couples will be interviewed with respect to the most severe verbal and most severe physical aggression events in the relationship in order to conduct event-based analyses. Statistical analyses will examine the relationships among husband and wife binge drinking, and their interaction on husband and wife marital aggression and whether ECF or negative affect moderate these relationships. The results will provide important insights with respect to the role of women's drinking, alone and in combination with men's drinking, on the occurrence of IPV.
