Exposure to child maltreatment in the family-of-origin has consistently been linked to intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration in adulthood. Although the concept of a cycle of violence presumes that the transmission of violence is expressed directly across generations, some protective factors such as social support, self-esteem, and relationship quality with parents may ultimately be influential in nonviolent behavior in adult relationships. Using the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health data set, we tested protective factors to see if and to what extent they disrupted the association from early childhood maltreatment to experiencing violence later on in adult relationships. We found that there was a positive association between adolescence exposure to maltreatment and adult perpetration and victimization of IPV. Also, social support in adolescence was identified as a predictor of lower levels of violence in adult relationship. Clinical implications were discussed to help therapists intervene with adolescents in the hopes of reducing their propensity toward violent relationships in adulthood.
在原生家庭中遭受儿童期虐待一直与成年后的亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)行为相关。尽管暴力循环的概念假定暴力的传递是直接在代际间表现出来的,但一些保护因素,如社会支持、自尊以及与父母的关系质量,可能最终会对成年关系中的非暴力行为产生影响。利用青少年健康全国纵向研究数据集,我们测试了保护因素,以确定它们是否以及在多大程度上能够打破从幼儿期虐待到成年关系中经历暴力之间的关联。我们发现,青少年时期遭受虐待与成年后的亲密伴侣暴力行为及成为受害者之间存在正相关。此外,青少年时期的社会支持被确定为成年关系中暴力程度较低的一个预测因素。文中还讨论了临床意义,以帮助治疗师干预青少年,希望降低他们成年后陷入暴力关系的倾向。
