PURPOSE
Perpetration of violent behavior begins to increase in adolescence and peaks in young adulthood (e.g., age 18-29) before decreasing by the early 30s. Considerable variability in reported perpetration, targets, and severity of violence suggests youth may change their violent behavior patterns over time.
METHODS
We use latent transition analysis to describe profiles of violent behavior against partners and nonpartners in an at-risk sample of young adults (N = 599; 59% male; 61% African-American) over a period of 2 years.
RESULTS
A four-class solution provided the best fit to the data, with classes corresponding to (1) nonviolent behavior (48.3% of the sample); (2) violent only toward nonpartners (22.3%); (3) violent only toward partners (16.0%); and (4) violent toward nonpartners and partners (13.4%). Participants' sex, race, age, previous violent injury, antisocial behavior, alcohol dependence, and possession of firearms were associated with baseline class membership.
CONCLUSIONS
Implications for prevention are discussed.
目的
暴力行为的实施在青少年时期开始增加，并在年轻人（例如 18-29 岁）达到高峰，然后在 30 岁出头前下降。针对伴侣和非伴侣的暴力行为报告存在相当大的变异性，这表明年轻人的暴力行为模式可能随时间而变化。
方法
我们使用潜在转变分析来描述处于风险中的年轻成年人（N=599；59%为男性；61%为非裔美国人）在两年期间针对伴侣和非伴侣的暴力行为模式。
结果
四项分类为数据提供了最佳拟合，类别对应于（1）非暴力行为（样本的 48.3%）；（2）仅对非伴侣的暴力行为（22.3%）；（3）仅对伴侣的暴力行为（16.0%）；以及（4）对非伴侣和伴侣的暴力行为（13.4%）。参与者的性别、种族、年龄、先前的暴力伤害、反社会行为、酒精依赖和持有枪支与基线分类成员有关。
结论
讨论了预防的影响。
