Research has revealed that forms of violence are interconnected, but less work focuses on the interconnection of victimization and perpetration, particularly with men. Subsequently, our understanding of the complexities of violence exposure in men's lives and related policies and treatments remains limited. The present study utilizes a sample of at-risk for violence involvement, college men, to examine the relationships between childhood victimization, adulthood victimization, and adulthood perpetration. Participants are 423 college men receiving course credit who completed a battery of standardized questionnaires via an anonymous web survey. Logistic regression is used. Results indicate that 27% of the men report polyperpetration (two or more types of perpetration), 43.5% report polyvictimization (two or more types of victimization), and 60% report experiencing both forms of victimization and perpetration in the past year. Childhood physical abuse has predictive power for perpetration (psychological aggression and polyperpetration) and victimization (sexual violence, psychological aggression, and polyvictimization) for the men in the past year. Childhood sexual abuse has strong predictive power for perpetration (physical violence, sexual violence, and polyperpetration) and victimization (physical violence and sexual violence) with the men in the past year. Finally, emotional abuse has predictive power for victimization (physical violence and psychological aggression), but not perpetration, for the men in the past year. Developmental psychopathology and the adverse childhood experiences frameworks are used to posit potential pathways explaining the relation between childhood abuse and the overlap between victimization and perpetration in adulthood for men. Implications of this study include the use of trauma-informed models of care with men and expanding the scope of study to examine experiences of both victimization and perpetration, and various types of violence, among men.
研究表明，各种形式的暴力是相互关联的，但较少的工作关注受害与施害之间的相互联系，尤其是男性。因此，我们对男性生活中暴力暴露的复杂性以及相关政策和治疗方法的理解仍然有限。本研究利用一个有暴力倾向的大学生样本，研究了童年期受害、成年期受害和成年期施害之间的关系。参与者是 423 名接受课程学分的大学生，他们通过匿名网络调查完成了一系列标准化问卷。采用逻辑回归分析。结果表明，27%的男性报告有多重施害行为（两种或两种以上的施害行为），43.5%报告有多重受害经历（两种或两种以上的受害经历），60%的男性报告在过去一年中同时经历了这两种受害和施害经历。童年期身体虐待对男性过去一年的施害行为（心理攻击和多重施害行为）和受害经历（性暴力、心理攻击和多重受害经历）具有预测力。童年期性虐待对男性过去一年的施害行为（身体暴力、性暴力和多重施害行为）和受害经历（身体暴力和性暴力）具有很强的预测力。最后，情感虐待对男性过去一年的受害经历（身体暴力和心理攻击）具有预测力，但对施害行为没有预测力。发展心理病理学和不良童年经历框架被用来提出潜在的途径，解释童年期虐待与成年期受害与施害之间重叠的关系。本研究的意义包括对男性使用以创伤为中心的护理模式，并扩大研究范围，以检查男性的受害和施害经历以及各种类型的暴力经历。
