Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a highly prevalent public health challenge and human rights violation. Sociological theories address social structures to understand prevalence and dynamics of IPV against women. This systematic review aims (1) to identify, describe, categorize, and synthesize sociological theories that account for predictors of IPV against women, and (2) to compare and contrast sociological theories of predictors of IPV against women. Following a structured search of nine electronic databases, members of the review team screened title/abstract and full texts against inclusion and exclusion criteria, to identify studies that engaged with theory/ies of predictors of IPV. Review team members extracted data according to a data extraction template developed for the review. Results are presented using a narrative synthesis approach. Following review of 108 included articles, included articles were grouped into sub-theories. The sub-theories provide differing, yet overlapping, accounts of predictors of male perpetration of IPV and women's experience of IPV. Sociological theories primarily engage with exo- and macro-system levels of the social-ecological framework, yet some also address structural influences on individual behaviors. This systematic review fills a gap in theoretical syntheses of sociological theories of predictors of male-perpetrated IPV against women and also provides critical analysis of how these theories overlap and intersect. While sociological theories may not be able to fully explain all aspects of dynamics of male-perpetrated IPV against women, this overview indicates that there are several compelling components of sociological theory that hold explanatory power for comprehending how, where, and why IPV occurs.
亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）是一种普遍存在的公共卫生挑战和侵犯人权的行为。社会学理论通过研究社会结构来理解针对妇女的 IPV 的流行率和动态。本系统综述旨在：（1）识别、描述、分类和综合解释针对妇女的 IPV 预测因素的社会学理论；（2）比较和对比针对妇女的 IPV 预测因素的社会学理论。在对九个电子数据库进行结构化搜索之后，综述团队成员根据纳入和排除标准筛选标题/摘要和全文，以确定涉及 IPV 预测因素理论的研究。综述团队成员根据为该综述制定的数据提取模板提取数据。结果采用叙述性综合方法呈现。在审查了 108 篇纳入的文章之后，将纳入的文章分为子理论。这些子理论提供了对男性实施 IPV 和女性经历 IPV 的预测因素的不同但重叠的解释。社会学理论主要涉及社会生态框架的外生和宏观系统层面，但也有一些理论涉及对个体行为的结构性影响。本系统综述填补了针对针对妇女的男性实施的 IPV 预测因素的社会学理论综合理论的空白，还对这些理论如何重叠和交叉进行了批判性分析。虽然社会学理论可能无法完全解释针对妇女的男性实施的 IPV 的动态的所有方面，但这一概述表明，社会学理论中有几个引人注目的组成部分具有解释力，可以帮助理解 IPV 发生的方式、地点和原因。
