This article explores women's use of physical violence in the context of experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV). Data were drawn from the New Zealand Violence Against Women Study, a cross-sectional household survey conducted using a population-based cluster-sampling scheme. Multinomial logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with women's use of physical violence against their partners when they were being physically hurt. Of the 843 women who had experienced physical violence perpetrated by an intimate partner, 64% reported fighting back at least once or twice whereas 36% never fought back. Analyses showed that women's use of violence more than once or twice was associated with experience of severe IPV, IPV that had "a lot of effect" on their mental health, and with children being present when the woman was being physically abused. Women's use of physical violence only once or twice was associated with both partners having alcohol problems and both having been exposed to violence as a child. Of the women who fought back, 66% reported that this did not result in the violence stopping.
本文探讨了女性在遭受亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的情况下使用身体暴力的情况。数据来自新西兰妇女遭受暴力研究，这是一项采用基于人群的整群抽样方案进行的横断面家庭调查。多项逻辑回归用于确定女性在遭受身体伤害时对伴侣使用身体暴力的相关因素。在843名曾遭受亲密伴侣身体暴力的女性中，64%报告至少反击过一两次，而36%从未反击过。分析表明，女性多次使用暴力与严重的亲密伴侣暴力经历、对其心理健康有“很大影响”的亲密伴侣暴力以及女性遭受身体虐待时有孩子在场有关。女性仅一两次使用身体暴力与双方都有酒精问题以及双方童年时都曾遭受暴力有关。在反击的女性中，66%报告这并未导致暴力停止。
