The association between alcohol consumption and intimate partner violence (IPV) has been reiterated in numerous studies. Some authors have found higher levels of risk factors in intimate partner violence offenders (IPVOs) with alcohol problems than in IPVOs without such problems.
The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship of contextual variables with harmful alcohol use in a sample of IPVOs.
This cross-sectional research analyzes data from 231 IPVOs. In addition to demographic data, information was collected on alcohol use, ethnicity, accumulation of stressful life events and perceived social support and rejection. The sample was divided into hazardous and nonhazardous alcohol users, according to the AUDIT test scale.
No differences were found between groups on demographic variables. The results of a hierarchical logistic regression analysis supplemented with ROC curves revealed that Latin American immigrants as opposed to Spanish nationality, accumulating stressful life events, and perceiving low social support significantly increased the likelihood of alcohol abuse, with adequate predictive power.
Contextual variables such as ethnicity, accumulation of stressful life events, and lack of social support may explain harmful alcohol consumption. These variables should be taken into account in batterer intervention programs in order to reduce one of the most relevant risk factors of IPV: alcohol abuse.
大量研究反复强调了饮酒与亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）之间的关联。一些作者发现，有酒精问题的亲密伴侣暴力犯罪者（IPVOs）比没有此类问题的IPVOs存在更高水平的风险因素。
本研究旨在分析IPVOs样本中情境变量与有害饮酒之间的关系。
这项横断面研究分析了231名IPVOs的数据。除了人口统计学数据外，还收集了关于饮酒、种族、应激性生活事件的累积以及感知到的社会支持和排斥的信息。根据酒精使用障碍识别测试（AUDIT）量表，将样本分为有害饮酒者和无害饮酒者。
两组在人口统计学变量上未发现差异。补充ROC曲线的分层逻辑回归分析结果显示，与西班牙国籍相比，拉丁美洲移民、累积应激性生活事件以及感知到低社会支持显著增加了酒精滥用的可能性，且具有足够的预测能力。
种族、应激性生活事件的累积和社会支持缺乏等情境变量可能解释有害饮酒行为。在施暴者干预项目中应考虑这些变量，以减少IPV最相关的风险因素之一：酒精滥用。
