Cluster B personality disorders of antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) and borderline personality disorder (BPD) have been implicated in predicting intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration. However, most studies include only male perpetrators and ignore the dyadic interactions among couples. The current study examines the interactive role of both partners' ASPD and BPD features to predict IPV perpetration with a dyadic perspective. Seventy-seven married heterosexual couples reporting recent partner violence participated in the study. Each partner completed the Revised Conflict Tactics Scales and the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-II. A considerable number of participants (53.25% of the men and 46.75% of the women for ASPD and 41.56% of the men and 42.86% of the women for BPD) scored higher than the diagnostic cutoff point. Actor-partner interdependence modeling examined the reciprocal influence of men's and women's personality disorder features on IPV perpetration in two separate actor-partner interdependence models. Results of the first model revealed that the IPV perpetration of both wives and husbands was predicted by their own ASPD scores. In the second model, men's IPV perpetration was predicted both by his own and his partner's BPD features, but this was not true of women's IPV perpetration. While ASPD was a consistent risk factor for IPV perpetration, there were gender differences in the influence of BPD on IPV perpetration. Women's BPD symptoms appear to put her at risk for victimization of IPV. Therefore, in couples experiencing IPV and having BPD symptoms, both partners may benefit from interventions to address emotional instability to prevent future IPV.
B类人格障碍中的反社会型人格障碍（ASPD）和边缘型人格障碍（BPD）与亲密伴侣暴力行为（IPV）的发生有关。然而，大多数研究仅纳入男性施暴者，而忽略了夫妻间的二元互动。本研究从二元视角考察了夫妻双方的ASPD和BPD特征在预测IPV发生中的交互作用。77对报告近期伴侣暴力行为的已婚异性恋夫妇参与了本研究。每一位伴侣都完成了修订版冲突策略量表和米隆临床多轴问卷-Ⅱ。相当数量的参与者（ASPD方面，53.25%的男性和46.75%的女性；BPD方面，41.56%的男性和42.86%的女性）得分高于诊断临界值。行为者-伴侣相互依赖模型在两个独立的行为者-伴侣相互依赖模型中考察了男性和女性人格障碍特征对IPV发生的相互影响。第一个模型的结果显示，妻子和丈夫的IPV行为都由他们自己的ASPD得分预测。在第二个模型中，男性的IPV行为由他自己和其伴侣的BPD特征共同预测，但女性的IPV行为并非如此。虽然ASPD是IPV发生的一个持续风险因素，但BPD对IPV发生的影响存在性别差异。女性的BPD症状似乎使她面临IPV受害的风险。因此，在经历IPV且有BPD症状的夫妻中，双方可能都能从解决情绪不稳定问题以预防未来IPV的干预措施中受益。
