“…Peer deviance was assessed by six items ( α = .94) previously created to assess conduct disorder and peer deviance 38 . Items asked how many friends the participant regularly interacted with exhibited potentially deviant behaviors within the past year (e.g., smoked cigarettes, been in trouble with the law).…”

Objective This study examined the prevalence and correlates of sexual assault (SA) pre-college, college onset, and repeat SA within a representative student sample. Participants A representative sample of 7,603 students. Methods Incoming first year students completed a survey about their exposure to broad SA prior to college, prior trauma, personality, relationships, and mental health. Broad SA was then re-assessed each spring semester while enrolled. Results Nearly 20% of the sample reported experiencing broad SA, with women endorsing significantly higher rates compared to males. Prior victimization before coming to college was related to a greater risk of victimization in college and there was no statistically significant difference between males and females who reported revictimization. Correlates of college onset broad SA were found and are discussed. Conclusions Given the need for SA intervention and prevention on college campuses, identification of factors potentially contributing to exposure within this population is essential.

“…Peer deviance was measured using items from the Virginia Adult Twin Study of Psychiatric and Substance Use Disorders (Kendler et al, 2008). At baseline, participants were asked 12 items about how many of their friends in the past year had used drugs other than alcohol, had used alcohol, or had engaged in antisocial behavior.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective:We examined the associations between romantic relationship status and alcohol use and problems in a large sample of fi rst-year college students. Method: Participants (n = 2,056) came from a longitudinal study of college students who answered questions about relationship status (single, in an exclusive relationship, or dating several people), alcohol use, and alcohol problems at two time points across their fi rst year. Results: After we controlled for a number of covariates (parental alcohol problems, high school conduct problems, peer deviance, and extraversion), we found that dating several people was associated with higher alcohol use and problems, compared with being single or being in an exclusive relationship, at the follow-up assessment only, with modest effect sizes. Being in an exclusive relationship was not associated with lower alcohol use or problems compared with being single. Relationship dissolution was associated with a modest longitudinal increase in alcohol problems. Conclusions: It is important to consider alternative relationship statuses (e.g., dating several people) for understanding the association of romantic status with alcohol use and problems in college-aged samples. Involvement in an exclusive romantic relationship (vs. being single) in this age group is not associated with the behavioral health benefi ts documented in older-adult samples. College students dating several people may be at risk for high levels of alcohol use or problems and may benefi t from targeted interventions. Those who have recently experienced a breakup also may be at risk for increases in alcohol problems, although the clinical relevance of this fi nding should be tempered by the small observed effect size.

“…The individual differences encapsulated by psychopathy include sensation seeking, risk taking, impulsivity, antisociality, and interpersonal callousness (e.g., Hare, 2003;Harris, Skilling, & Rice, 2001;Lalumière, Mishra, & Harris, 2008;Rice & Harris, in press). These are enduring traits that appear in early childhood (Baker, Jacobson, Raine, Lozano, & Bezdjian, 2007;Bersani, Nieuwbeerta, & Laub, 2009;Broidy et al, 2003;Frick et al, 2003;Glenn, Raine, Venables, & Mednick, 2007), and exhibit considerable genetically based stability through the life course (Burt, McGue, Carter, & Iacono, 2007;Hicks et al, 2007;Kendler, Jacobson, Myers, & Eaves, 2008;Loney, Taylor, Butler, & Iacono, 2007;Lynam, Caspi, Moffitt, Loeber, & Stouthamer-Loeber, 2007;Sadeh et al, 2010). Enduring antisocial (sometimes called "externalizing") traits and/or psychopathy exhibit high heritability, and the shared environment appears to have considerably smaller additive effects on their expression (Baker et al, 2007;Bornovalova, Hicks, Iacono, & McGue, 2010;Ferguson, 2010;Forsman, Lichtenstein, Andershed, & Larsson, 2008;Johannson et al, 2008;Kreuger et al, 2002;Larsson et al, 2007;Larsson, Andershed, & Lichtenstein, 2006;Larsson, Viding, & Plomin, 2008;Rhee & Waldman, 2002;Slutske et al, 2008;Taylor, Loney, Bobadilla, Iacono, & McGue, 2003).…”

Explaining the Frequency of Intimate Partner Violence By Male Perpetrators

The authors measured potential causes of prolonged male violence against female intimate partners in four domains: enduring antisocial traits, perpetrator's attitudes and values, aspects of the relationship, and neighborhood characteristics. They also examined perpetrators' substance abuse and the couples' socioeconomic status as possible causes of prolonged intimate partner violence. The dependent variable was the total number of instances of violence against a female intimate partner recorded for each male perpetrator in comprehensive police and criminal justice archives. As expected, antisocial traits (especially psychopathy) gave the best evidence of causal status. Variables in each other domain exhibited some explanatory power, but some of the apparent causal role could be attributable to enduring antisociality.
