Intersectional Minority Stress and Intimate Partner Violence: The Effects of Enacted Stigma on Racial Minority Youth Assigned Female at Birth

Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration Among Sexual Minority People and Associated Factors: A Systematic Review of Quantitative Studies

“…Cohabitation was associated with increased risk of IPV perpetration. Participants’ Internalized homonegativity was positively associated with IPV perpetration, while partner’s internalized homonegativity was not Swann et al ( 2021 ) Intersectional minority stress and intimate partner violence: the effects of enacted stigma on racial minority youth assigned female at birth USA N = 249 (FAB) Severe psychological violence, severe physical violence, and sexual IPV; SGM-Specific IPV tactics SGM-CTS2; SGM-Specific IPV Tactics Scale Heterosexist enacted stigma was positively related to psychological and sexual IPV perpetration, but not to physical or sexual and gender minority-specific IPV. Racist enacted stigma was positively related to physical and sexual IPV perpetration.…”

“…Thirty-nine studies assessed IPV perpetration with some version of the conflict tactics scale (CTS; Ayhan Balik & Bilgin, 2021 ; Bartholomew et al, 2008a , b ; Causby et al, 1995 ; Balsam & Szymanski, 2005 ; Chong et al, 2013 ; Craft & Serovich, 2005 ; Craft et al, 2008 ; Edwards & Sylaska, 2013 ; Edwards et al, 2021 ; Leone et al, 2022 ; Lewis et al, 2017 ; Li et al, 2019 , 2022 ; Li & Zheng, 2021 ; Gabbay & Lafontaine, 2017a ; Gabbay & Lafontaine, 2017b ; Jones & Raghavan, 2012 ; Kelley et al, 2014 ; Landolt & Dutton, 1997 ; Lewis et al, 2018 ; Mason et al, 2016 ; McKenry et al, 2006 ; Milletich et al, 2014 ; Oringher & Samuelson, 2011 ; Pepper & Sand, 2015 ; Pistella et al, 2022 ; Stephenson et al, 2011b ; Stults et al, 2021b ; Swan et al, 2021 ; Swann et al, 2021 ; Taylor & Neppl, 2020 ; Tognasso et al, 2022 ; Whitton et al, 2021 ; Wu et al, 2015 ; Stults et al, 2015b ; Stults et al, 2016 ; Waterman et al, 1989 ; Whitton et al, 2019 ; Zavala, 2017 ). Other used assessment tools were the Intimate Partner Violence Among Gay and Bisexual Men (IPV-GBM) Scale (10 studies; Davis et al, 2016 ; Jones & Raghavan, 2012 ; Sharma et al, 2021 ; Stephenson & Finneran, 2016 ; Stephenson & Finneran, 2017 ; Suarez et al, 2018 ; Wei et al, 2020a , b , 2021 ; Zhu et al, 2021 ); the Psychological Maltreatment of Women Inventory (three studies; Bartholomew et al, 2008a ...…”

“…Second, only 15 studies (Balsam & Szymanski, 2005 ; Davis et al, 2016 ; Edwards et al, 2021 ; Fortunata & Kohn, 2003 ; Jones & Raghavan, 2012 ; Sharma et al, 2021 ; Stephenson & Finneran, 2016 ; Stephenson & Finneran, 2017 ; Suarez et al, 2018 ; Swann et al, 2021 ; Wei et al, 2020a , b ; Whitton et al, 2019 ; Whitton et al, 2021 ; Zhu et al, 2021 ) included instruments or items that addressed abusive tactics specific to sexual minority people (e.g., threats of outing, homonegativity, and negative HIV-related attitudes). Furthermore, only slightly more than half of the studies were focused on the variables associated to the violence perpetrated within a same-sex relationship (40 studies; Ayhan Balik & Bilgin, 2021 ; Balsam & Szymanski, 2005 ; Bartholomew et al, 2008a , b ; Bartholomew et al, 2008a , b ; Carvalho et al, 2011 ; Chong et al, 2013 ; Craft & Serovich, 2005 ; Davis et al, 2016 ; Edwards & Sylaska, 2013 ; Fontanesi et al, 2020 ; Gabbay & Lafontaine, 2017a ; Gabbay & Lafontaine, b ; Jacobson et al, 2015 ; Jones & Raghavan, 2012 ; Kahle et al, 2020 ; Kelley et al, 2014 ; Landolt & Dutton, 1997 ; Leone et al, 2022 ; Lewis et al, 2017 ; Lewis et al, 2018 ; Li et al, 2019 , 2022 ; Li & Zheng, 2021 ; Longares et al, 2018b ; Mason et al, 2016 ; Milletich et al, 2014 ; Pepper & Sand, 2015 ; Pistella et al, 2022 ; Poorman & Seelau, 2001 ; Schilit et al, 1990 ; Sharma et al, 2021 ; Stephenson & Finneran, 2016 ; Stephenson et al,…”

“…Regardless of their self-identified sexual orientation, 17 studies recruited participants on the basis of their involvement in a same-sex relationship (Balsam & Szymanski, 2005 ; Craft & Serovich, 2005 ; Craft et al, 2008 ; Edwards & Sylaska, 2013 ; Jones & Raghavan, 2012 ; Kahle et al, 2020 ; Kelley et al, 2014 ; Leone et al, 2022 ; Li et al, 2019 , 2022 ; Li & Zheng, 2021 ; Milletich et al, 2014 ; Pepper & Sand, 2015 ; Stephenson et al, 2011a , b ; Suarez et al, 2018 ; Waterman et al, 1989 ; Wu et al, 2015 ), while twelve articles were focused on people who reported non-heterosexual sexual behaviors (Davis et al, 2016 ; Krahé et al, 2000 ; Miltz et al, 2019 ; Stults et al, 2015a , b , 2016 , 2021a , b ; Wei et al, 2020a , b , 2021 ; Zhu et al, 2021 ). In five studies, participants were recruited based on one of the criteria reported above (i.e., sexual orientation, same-sex relationship, sexual behaviors; Messinger et al, 2021 ; Swann et al, 2021 ; Whitton et al, 2019 , 2021 ; Wong et al, 2010 ). Five articles did not specify based on what criteria they defined their participants as sexual minority people (Carvalho et al, 2011 ; Causby et al, 1995 ; McKenry et al, 2006 ; Landolt & Dutton, 1997 ; Schilit et al, 1991 ).…”

Longitudinal Transitions in Intimate Partner Violence among Female Assigned at Birth Sexual and Gender Minority Youth

“…However, the work that has been done indicates that SGM are at greater risk of experiencing psychological, sexual, and physical IPV in comparison to their cisgender heterosexual counterparts during both adolescence (Dank et al, 2014; Luo et al, 2014; Olsen et al, 2017) and young adulthood (Blosnich & Bossarte, 2012; Porter & Williams, 2011). In contrast to cisgender heterosexual youth, SGM face unique risk factors, such as exposure to anti-SGM stigma (Carvalho et al, 2011; Swann et al, 2019) and less access to resources (Ford et al, 2013), which likely contribute to their differing experiences of IPV. Among SGM, those who are female-assigned at birth (FAB) have reported significantly higher rates of IPV compared to those who are male-assigned at birth (MAB) (Martin-Storey, 2015; Whitton et al, 2019b).…”
