“…There are many factors that can lead to divorce in a cross-cultural relationship. Societal pressures and expectation may cause an increased disapproval of one's mate choice, and this influences how successful the marriage will be (Robinson, 2017). All the potential problems that can arise in any given relationship, however especially those mentioned above, can all be factors of divorce.…”

Cross-cultural intimate relationships can bring about positives changes to society as a whole. Although many cross-cultural couples face a plectrum of challenges, many of them overcome those challenges. Differing of opinions, morals, and values can strain relationships and bonds. There are many stereotypes associated with different religious, racial, and ethnic backgrounds. Cross-cultural relationships go against the status quo by introducing new ideas and perspectives to different demographics. Children who are products of cross-cultural matches introduce new identities to society, creating more diversity.

“…Interracial relationships are becoming more common (Buggs, 2019; Robinson, 2019). It’s been half a century since the U.S. Supreme Court decriminalized interracial marriage (Robinson, 2017). Since then, the share of interracial and interethnic marriages in the United States has increased fivefold, from 3% of all weddings in 1967 to 17% in 2015 (Pew Research Center, 2017).…”

Interracial violence is a high-profile issue in the United States; however, there is little empirical research on interracial intimate partner violence (IPV). Interracial relationships are becoming more common. However, interracial couples continue to face stressors (e.g., discrimination) that likely impact the relationship (e.g., IPV) than their monoracial counterparts. Research indicates that military populations more likely oppose interracial marriages than nonmilitary counterparts. Yet, no study to date has investigated IPV within military monoracial and interracial couples. To understand the intersecting effects of race/ethnicity among military couples, this study investigates male perpetrated IPV in interracial and monoracial relationships. Using structural equation modeling, this study sample contains information about 449 male veterans from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (1994-2008): Waves I and IV. Findings indicate that (a) White and Black veterans are more violent in monoracial relationships, meanwhile, Latino veterans have a higher IPV prevalence in interracial relationships; (b) Black and White veterans were more likely to use alcohol and other drugs (AOD) after IPV perpetration in interracial relationships, in contrast to Latino veterans’ post IPV perpetrations AOD use in monoracial relationships; (c) veteran mental health status was affected after perpetration of IPV, similar to the effects experienced after combat. In an attempt to address the lack of research on the characteristics associated with interracial violence this study addresses the following questions: (a) Are veterans in interracial families more likely to commit IPV and use of alcohol and other drugs (AOD) than in monoracial families? (b) Among the military samples, is AOD a facilitator for IPV? (c) How does mental health status affect IPV perpetration?
