Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals experience intimate partner violence (IPV) at high rates, even bidirectionally, yet no studies to date have investigated IPV among LGBT individuals in Latin America. Thus, this study explored discrimination and IPV victimization and perpetration among LGBT individuals in Latin America. Participants ( = 99) were recruited for this online, cross-sectional survey via convenience sampling and completed measures of LGBT discrimination and lifetime IPV victimization and perpetration. Results indicated that 60.61% of the sample reported at least one form of IPV victimization at some point in their life, and 56.57% reported at least one form of perpetration. Psychological aggression was the most common type of IPV victimization and perpetration. Physical assault victimization was positively correlated with work/school heterosexism. Perpetration and victimization of physical assault, psychological aggression, and sexual coercion were correlated with the "other" heterosexism subscale. Cluster analysis revealed a three-cluster solution: participants in Cluster 1 were high in IPV victimization and perpetration; Cluster 2 participants were low in IPV victimization and perpetration; and Cluster 3 participants were moderate on psychological aggression perpetration and victimization, but low on the other three forms of IPV. Cluster 1 participants had a higher score for the "other" heterosexism subscale than Cluster 2. This study highlights the need to address certain aspects of IPV, such as bidirectionality, in clinical encounters such as safety planning. Future research should examine the role of Latinx identity in LGBT individuals' experiences of discrimination and IPV.
女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者(LGBT)人群经历亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)的比例很高,甚至是双向的,但迄今为止,还没有研究调查过拉丁美洲 LGBT 人群中的 IPV 问题。因此,本研究探讨了拉丁美洲 LGBT 人群中的歧视和 IPV 受害和施暴情况。通过便利抽样,本项在线横断面调查招募了参与者(n=99),他们完成了 LGBT 歧视和终生 IPV 受害和施暴的测量。结果表明,该样本中有 60.61%的人在其一生中的某个时候至少经历过一种形式的 IPV 受害,56.57%的人报告至少经历过一种形式的 IPV 施暴。心理攻击是最常见的 IPV 受害和施暴形式。身体攻击受害与工作/学校异性恋歧视呈正相关。身体攻击、心理攻击和性胁迫的施暴和受害与“其他”异性恋歧视亚量表呈正相关。聚类分析显示了三种聚类解决方案:集群 1 的参与者在 IPV 受害和施暴方面得分较高;集群 2 的参与者在 IPV 受害和施暴方面得分较低;集群 3 的参与者在心理攻击施暴和受害方面得分中等,但在其他三种形式的 IPV 方面得分较低。集群 1 的参与者在“其他”异性恋歧视亚量表上的得分高于集群 2。本研究强调了在临床环境(如安全规划)中需要解决 IPV 的某些方面,如双向性。未来的研究应该研究拉丁裔身份在 LGBT 个体的歧视和 IPV 经历中的作用。
