The association between alcohol use and substantiated incidents of nonmutual and mutual domestic violence between U.S. Army enlisted soldiers and their spouses was examined for the period 1998-2004. Maltreatment was always more severe in nonmutual incidents. Female victims experienced more severe maltreatment than males. Male offenders and victims were more likely to be drinking than females. For victims of both sexes, severity was greater when offenders were drinking. Older males were more likely to be offenders in nonmutual incidents. White males were more likely than Black or Hispanic males to be offenders in nonmutual incidents. There is a need for both domestic violence and alcohol treatment programs to focus on the increased risk of abuse when alcohol is involved.
对1998年至2004年期间美国陆军士兵及其配偶之间酒精使用与经证实的非相互和相互家庭暴力事件之间的关联进行了研究。在非相互事件中虐待行为总是更严重。女性受害者遭受的虐待比男性更严重。男性犯罪者和受害者比女性更有可能饮酒。对于男女受害者来说,当犯罪者饮酒时,虐待的严重程度更高。年龄较大的男性在非相互事件中更有可能成为犯罪者。在非相互事件中,白人男性比黑人或西班牙裔男性更有可能成为犯罪者。家庭暴力和酒精治疗项目都需要关注饮酒时虐待风险增加的问题。
