This study assessed 87 maritally violent men (MV), 42 maritally nonviolent, maritally discordant men (NVD), and 48 maritally nonviolent, maritally satisfied men (NVS) on the California Psychological Inventory (CPI), a test of the normal personality. A MANOVA and subsequent range tests indicated that the NVD and NVS groups had significantly higher scores than the MV group on 10 of the 18 subscales: Responsibility, Socialization, Self-Control, Tolerance, Achievement via Conformance, Achievement via Independence, Good Impression, Intellectual Efficiency, and Psychological Mindedness. A discriminant analysis contrasting the MV group with the combined NVD and NVS group correctly classified 68% of the subjects and accounted for 20.94% of the variance between groups. Along with previous findings, the data indicated that maritally violent males exhibit different personality characteristics than maritally nonviolent men in three general areas: intimacy, impulsivity, and problem-solving skills. Many of these problem areas were significantly correlated with childhood violence experiences.
本研究对87名婚姻暴力男性（MV）、42名婚姻非暴力但婚姻关系不和的男性（NVD）以及48名婚姻非暴力且婚姻关系融洽的男性（NVS）进行了加利福尼亚心理调查表（CPI）测试，该测试用于评估正常人格。一项多变量方差分析及随后的范围测试表明，在18个分量表中的10个上，NVD组和NVS组的得分显著高于MV组，这些分量表包括：责任、社会化、自我控制、宽容、通过顺从获得成就、通过独立获得成就、良好印象、智力效率和心理意识。一项将MV组与NVD组和NVS组合并组进行对比的判别分析正确地将68%的受试者分类，并解释了组间差异的20.94%。连同先前的研究结果，这些数据表明，婚姻暴力男性在三个总体方面表现出与婚姻非暴力男性不同的人格特征：亲密关系、冲动性和解决问题的能力。其中许多问题领域与童年暴力经历显著相关。
