A meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the association between internalized homophobia and intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration and victimization in same-sex relationships. The literature search and the application of the inclusion criteria made it possible to identify 10 studies, 2 of which were excluded due to missing data. Therefore, eight studies were finally included in the meta-analysis. The results showed positive and statistically significant associations between internalized homophobia and IPV perpetration and victimization, indicating that higher levels of internalized homophobia were related to higher levels of IPV. Specifically, the pooled effect size for the relationship between internalized homophobia and IPV perpetration (all forms), it was = .147, 95% confidence interval (CI) = [.079, .214]; for the association between internalized homophobia and physical/sexual IPV perpetration, it was = .166, 95% CI [.109, .221]; < .0001; for the relationship between internalized homophobia and psychological IPV perpetration, it was = .145, 95% CI [.073, .216]; and for the association between internalized homophobia and any type of IPV victimization, it was = .102, 95% CI [.030, .173]. Implications of these results for clinical practice and future research are discussed.
进行了一项荟萃分析，以调查内化同性恋恐惧与同性伴侣暴力（IPV）实施和受害之间的关联。通过文献检索和应用纳入标准，确定了 10 项研究，其中 2 项因缺失数据而被排除。因此，最终有 8 项研究纳入荟萃分析。结果表明，内化同性恋恐惧与 IPV 实施和受害之间存在正相关且具有统计学意义，表明内化同性恋恐惧程度越高，与 IPV 程度越高相关。具体来说，内化同性恋恐惧与 IPV 实施（所有形式）之间的关系的合并效应大小为 =.147，95%置信区间（CI）=[.079，.214]；内化同性恋恐惧与身体/性 IPV 实施之间的关联为 =.166，95%CI [.109，.221]；<.0001；内化同性恋恐惧与心理 IPV 实施之间的关系为 =.145，95%CI [.073，.216]；内化同性恋恐惧与任何类型的 IPV 受害之间的关联为 =.102，95%CI [.030，.173]。讨论了这些结果对临床实践和未来研究的意义。
