Same-sex intimate partner violence (SSIPV) is still under-investigated despite its spreading. Unique risk factors, such as internalized homonegativity, have been found to be related to physical SSIPV perpetration. However, the mechanisms that regulate this association are still unclear. Drawing from the psychological mediation framework (PMF), this paper aimed to explore the relationship between internalized homonegativity and physical SSIPV perpetration, assessing the mediating role of emotion dysregulation. In all, 139 gay and lesbian participants involved in same-sex relationships participated in the study by completing a self-administered online questionnaire. Mediation analyses were used to assess both the direct and indirect effects. Internalized homonegativity was not directly associated with physical SSIPV perpetration. However, internalized homonegativity was positively associated with emotion dysregulation, which, in turn, was positively associated with physical SSIPV perpetration. The indirect effect of internalized homonegativity on physical SSIPV perpetration through emotion dysregulation was also confirmed. The results that emerged extend the application of the PMF to SSIPV. The data found can inform both preventive interventions and treatments targeting SSIPV perpetrators to reduce the phenomenon and limit recidivism.
尽管同性亲密伴侣暴力(SSIPV)呈蔓延之势,但对其研究仍不足。研究发现,诸如内化性消极等独特风险因素与身体暴力形式的SSIPV犯罪行为有关。然而,调节这种关联的机制仍不明确。本文借鉴心理中介框架(PMF),旨在探讨内化性消极与身体暴力形式的SSIPV犯罪行为之间的关系,评估情绪失调的中介作用。共有139名处于同性关系中的男同性恋者和女同性恋者参与了这项研究,他们通过填写一份在线自填问卷来完成调查。中介分析用于评估直接效应和间接效应。内化性消极与身体暴力形式的SSIPV犯罪行为没有直接关联。然而,内化性消极与情绪失调呈正相关,而情绪失调又与身体暴力形式的SSIPV犯罪行为呈正相关。内化性消极通过情绪失调对身体暴力形式的SSIPV犯罪行为产生的间接效应也得到了证实。所得结果将PMF的应用扩展到了SSIPV领域。所发现的数据可为针对SSIPV犯罪者的预防干预措施和治疗方法提供参考,以减少这一现象并限制累犯行为。
