Research on risk factors for men's perpetration of intimate partner violence (IPV) has shown a high correlation with problem alcohol use. Additional studies, however, indicate that the alcohol-IPV link is neither simple nor necessarily direct and that a range of factors may moderate this relationship. Using a national, community-based sample of 255 men, the present study examined the moderating effects of ambivalent sexism (i.e., hostile and benevolent sexism) on the relationship between alcohol use and IPV perpetration. The findings show that both greater alcohol consumption and high hostile sexism are positively associated with IPV perpetration, and that hostile sexism moderates the alcohol-IPV relationship for perpetration of physical IPV, but not for psychological IPV. Moreover, high levels of alcohol consumption have a greater impact on physical IPV perpetration for men low in hostile sexism than for men high in hostile sexism, lending support to the multiple threshold model of the alcohol-IPV link. Implications of the findings for prevention, intervention, and future research are discussed.
关于男性实施亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的风险因素的研究表明，其与酗酒问题高度相关。然而，其他研究表明，酒精与 IPV 之间的联系既不简单也不一定直接，一系列因素可能会调节这种关系。本研究使用一个全国性的、基于社区的 255 名男性样本，检验了矛盾性别观（即敌意性别观和仁慈性别观）对酒精使用与 IPV 实施之间关系的调节作用。研究结果表明，饮酒量越大、敌意性别观越高，与 IPV 实施呈正相关，敌意性别观对身体 IPV 的实施调节了酒精与 IPV 的关系，但对心理 IPV 没有影响。此外，对于敌对性别观程度较低的男性，高水平的酒精摄入对身体 IPV 的实施影响更大，这支持了酒精与 IPV 联系的多阈值模型。讨论了这些发现对预防、干预和未来研究的意义。
