: Intimate partner violence (IPV) remains a critical social issue, with gender perspectives offering valuable insights into its dynamics. Recent studies suggest that alexithymia, or the inability to identify and express emotions, may play a significant role in exacerbating IPV, especially in peri-urban areas. The general objective of this study was to determine the moderating role of gender in the relationship between alexithymia and intimate partner violence among adults in populated centers in Trujillo in 2024. : A correlational research design with explanatory scope was employed, including moderation analysis. The sample consisted of 108 adults aged 18 to 35 from populated centers. The instruments used included the Intimate Partner Violence Scale, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, and a sociodemographic questionnaire. : Results indicated that, in the alexithymia variable, females predominated with a high level (78%), followed by a medium level (19%). In the intimate partner violence variable, females also predominated, with 48% at a high level and 39% at a medium level. Additionally, a positive, moderate-to-high, and significant correlation (ρ = 0.78, < 0.001) was found between alexithymia and intimate partner violence. : The study concluded that gender does indeed serve as a moderating variable (E = 1.42, < 0.001) in the relationship between alexithymia and intimate partner violence in adults from populated centers.
亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）仍然是一个关键的社会问题，性别视角为其动态变化提供了有价值的见解。最近的研究表明，述情障碍，即无法识别和表达情绪，可能在加剧亲密伴侣暴力方面发挥重要作用，尤其是在城郊地区。本研究的总体目标是确定2024年在特鲁希略人口密集中心的成年人中，性别在述情障碍与亲密伴侣暴力关系中的调节作用。：采用了具有解释性范围的相关研究设计，包括调节分析。样本由来自人口密集中心的108名18至35岁的成年人组成。使用的工具包括亲密伴侣暴力量表、多伦多述情障碍量表和一份社会人口学调查问卷。：结果表明，在述情障碍变量中，女性占主导地位，高水平占78%，其次是中等水平占19%。在亲密伴侣暴力变量中，女性也占主导地位，高水平占48%，中等水平占39%。此外，述情障碍与亲密伴侣暴力之间存在正相关、中等到高度显著的相关性（ρ = 0.78，< 0.001）。：研究得出结论，在人口密集中心的成年人中，性别确实在述情障碍与亲密伴侣暴力的关系中起到调节变量的作用（E = 1.42，< 0.001）。
