Guided by the attachment theory, this study tested the degree to which perspective taking mediates the effects of romantic attachment on the use of physical intimate partner violence (IPV) toward the partner. Participants consisted of 608 Chilean university students involved in a romantic relationship, among whom 44.2% of women and 34.7% of men reported inflicting at least one act of violence toward their partner during the previous year. Results from a structural equation model showed that the association between avoidance of intimacy and physical IPV is mediated by perspective taking for both men and women. However, perspective taking mediated the link between attachment anxiety and physical IPV in women only. Our findings underline the importance of the individual's sense of attachment security in relation to their ability to empathize with their partners, as well as prevent the perpetration of physical IPV against them.
本研究以依恋理论为指导，检验了换位思考在多大程度上中介了浪漫依恋对伴侣身体亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）使用的影响。参与者包括 608 名智利大学生，他们中有恋爱关系，其中 44.2%的女性和 34.7%的男性报告在过去一年中对伴侣至少实施了一次暴力行为。结构方程模型的结果表明，对于男性和女性来说，亲密关系回避与身体 IPV 之间的关联是由换位思考介导的。然而，只有女性的依恋焦虑与身体 IPV 之间的联系是由换位思考介导的。我们的研究结果强调了个体依恋安全感与其对伴侣共情能力的关系的重要性，以及防止对伴侣实施身体 IPV 的重要性。
