“…According to numerous authors, the expression “IPV” represents a form of violence that both men and women can enact, with no regard to age, marital status, or sexual orientations (Capaldi et al, 2007; Ali et al, 2016). The consequences of IPV on mental health and general wellbeing have also been outlined in numerous studies (Campbell, 2002; Anderson et al, 2008; Murray and Mobley, 2009; Giordano et al, 2014; Costa et al, 2015). …”

When Intimate Partner Violence Meets Same Sex Couples: A Review of Same Sex Intimate Partner Violence

et al. 2018

Over the past few decades, the causes of and intervention for intimate partner violence (IPV) have been approached and studied. This paper presents a narrative review on IPV occurring in same sex couples, that is, same sex IPV (SSIPV). Despite the myth that IPV is exclusively an issue in heterosexual relationships, many studies have revealed the existence of IPV among lesbian and gay couples, and its incidence is comparable to (Turell, 2000) or higher than that among heterosexual couples (Messinger, 2011; Kelley et al., 2012). While similarities between heterosexual and lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) IPV were found, unique features and dynamics were present in LGB IPV. Such features are mainly related to identification and treatment of SSIPV in the community and to the need of taking into consideration the role of sexual minority stressors. Our findings show there is a lack of studies that address LGB individuals involved in IPV; this is mostly due to the silence that has historically existed around violence in the LGB community, a silence built on fears and myths that have obstructed a public discussion on the phenomenon. We identified the main themes discussed in the published studies that we have reviewed here. The reviews lead us to the conclusion that it is essential to create a place where this subject can be freely discussed and approached, both by LGB and heterosexual people.

“…This is intuitive as hospital in-take records, crime surveys, police logs, and shelter data demonstrated that women typically are the victims of the most severe violence (e.g., Dobash and Dobash, 2004). Yet researchers examining survey data (e.g., Straus, 2008, 2010; Rhoades et al, 2010; Whitaker et al, 2007) including the TARS (e.g., Alvira-Hammond et al, in press; Johnson et al, 2014), and relying on the Revised Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS2) (Straus et al, 1996), found that many women reported that they were violent toward their partners or were involved in bidirectional or reciprocal violence suggesting that victims could be men as well as women. Whitaker, Haileyesus, Swahn, and Saltzman (2007) analyzing the Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) found that women comprised 70% of perpetrators reporting nonreciprocal violence.…”

“…Fergusson, Horwood, and Ridder (2005), specifically analyzing young adults (n = 828), also found that victimization increased men and women’s depressive symptoms. Further, Johnson et al (2014) concluded that any intimate partner aggression (i.e., self-reports of perpetration, victimization, or bidirectional) from early adolescence through young adulthood increased depressive symptoms for both men and women. Thus, based on these studies one conclusion that could be drawn is that victimization leads to depressive symptoms.…”

“…Age, race/ethnicity, social class background, family structure, neighborhood poverty while growing up, educational level and employment status are associated with the risk of victimization as well as depressive symptoms (Johnson et al, 2014), and religiosity (Smith et al, 2003) may be an especially relevant personal resource for victimized individuals (DeWall et al, 2012). We controlled for these factors in our analyses.…”

Examining longitudinal data from the Toledo Adolescent Relationships Study (TARS) (n = 927), we assessed associations between physical victimization by an intimate partner, indicators of poor relationship quality, and depressive symptoms among young adult men and women in casually dating, exclusively dating, cohabiting, and marital relationships. In zero-order models, we found that physical victimization increased depressive symptoms. In multivariate models, victimization was a risk factor for depressive symptoms with the inclusion of prior depressive symptoms, family factors reflecting the intergenerational transmission of violence, sociodemographic background, and relationship characteristics including union status. Yet with the additional inclusion of indicators of poor relational quality, victimization was not a significant predictor of depressive symptoms. Arguing and poor communication influenced victimization and depressive symptoms. The associations between victimization and depressive symptoms did not differ by gender, nor were the effects of poor relationship quality on depressive symptoms conditional on gender. Thus, depressive symptoms are similarly responsive to intimate partner victimization, and for both women and men these associations were not significant with the inclusion of indicators of poor relationship quality. Findings underscored that victimization often occurs within relationship contexts characterized by a range of negative dynamics; thus multifaceted relationship-centered prevention and intervention efforts are likely to be more useful than those focusing only on negative messages about the use of aggression with an intimate partner.

“…Moreover, personal and interpersonal resilience and thriving depend on the degree to which romantic relationships are either enriching or disruptive (Dmytro, Luft, Jenkins, Hoard, & Cameron, 2013;Friedlander, Connolly, Pepler, & Craig 2013;Johnson, Giordano, Longmore, & Manning, 2014). Much of the current literature on adolescent romantic relationships is focused on the problem of dating aggression and violence, where the perpetrators in heterosexual relationships are usually male.…”

Abstract:In this study we examined the negotiation of romantic relationships by urban youth, as discussed in focus groups, in a multicultural community. We compared these urban-student findings for an emergent fit with previously reported findings from more homogeneous groups of rural students. The unifying category, wrestling with gender expectations, which was identified in the rural studies, also emerged in the present study. A new unifying category represented urban participants' balancing cultural expectations in the contexts of their families and social groups. Three categories from the former rural studies emerged in the present urban study: making sacrifices, showing respect, and standing up for oneself; and a new category emerged: communicating. While the rural students identified media as critical contextual conditions for romantic relationships, the current urban teens identified digital and social media as crucial contextual conditions in dating relationships. Together, these findings suggest the importance of considering cultural and contextual aspects of youths' dating processes for developing a grounded theory that reflects aspects of teens' relational lives. Implications of this emergent theory are explored, and directions for future research are suggested.
