This study describes partner violence in a representative sample of young adults. Physical violence perpetration was reported by 37.2% of women and 21.8% of men. Correlates of involvement in severe physical violence differed by gender. Severe physical violence was more strongly associated with unemployment, low educational attainment, few social support resources, polydrug use, antisocial personality disorder symptoms, depression symptoms, and violence toward strangers for men than for women. Women who were victims of severe physical violence were more likely than men who were victims to experience symptoms of anxiety. The findings converge with community studies showing that more women than men are physically violent toward a partner and with clinical studies highlighting violence perpetrated against women by men with deviant characteristics.
本研究描述了一个具有代表性的年轻成年人样本中的伴侣暴力情况。报告称，37.2%的女性和21.8%的男性实施过身体暴力。参与严重身体暴力的相关因素因性别而异。与女性相比，严重身体暴力与男性的失业、低教育程度、社会支持资源少、多种药物使用、反社会人格障碍症状、抑郁症状以及对陌生人的暴力行为之间的关联更强。遭受严重身体暴力的女性比男性受害者更有可能出现焦虑症状。这些发现与社区研究一致，表明对伴侣实施身体暴力的女性多于男性，也与临床研究一致，后者强调具有异常特征的男性对女性实施的暴力行为。
