“…Some studies focused on the deterrent effect of criminal justice intervention on IPV (Berk, Campbell, Klap, & Western, 1992;Syers & Edleson, 1992;Tolman & Weisz, 1995), whereas other studies focused on psychological and behavioral interventions to reduce IPV perpetration (Browne, Saunders, & Staecker, 1997;Saunders, 1996;Taft, Murphy, King, Musser, & DeDeyn, 2003).…”

The concept of intergenerational transmission of intimate partner violence (IPV) has been an important topic of research. Experts have contended that this brutal path in which violence is transmitted to subsequent generations may be avoidable. This study examined whether public perceptions of the legal regulation of IPV and the certainty of sanction deter the prevalence of IPV. Data from 3,800 households were obtained from a nationwide survey conducted in South Korea. Due to a skewed distribution of the prevalence of IPV, this study applied a zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) model, which has been shown to address issues of skewed count variables. In addition, use of a ZIP model allowed us to examine factors associated with the occurrence and frequency of IPV. Results showed that child abuse experience and perceptions of the law were associated with the occurrence of IPV. Individuals who experienced child abuse were more likely to perpetrate IPV, whereas those aware of the law were less likely to perpetrate IPV. Witnessing IPV between parents was associated with an increased frequency of IPV. Results suggest that by increasing awareness of laws against domestic violence, IPV may be reduced or prevented.

“…6. Trauma-based approaches rest on the assumption that the men need to resolve their childhood traumas, in particular those from witnessing parental violence and being physically abused by parents (Browne, Saunders, & Staecker, 1997). One assumption is that they cannot empathize well with others because they are cut off from their own traumatic experiences.…”

“…Learning to become empathetic with others is often the final objective in psychodynamic work completed with not only men who batter, but adults who have experienced and witnessed domestic violence as children. Accepting past abuse helps men grieve their loss and eventually relinquish control over their parents (Browne, Saunders, & Staecker, 1997;Wexler, 1999).…”

This grounded theory inquiry aimed to elicit nonviolent adult sons' (N=13) perceptions of what helped them to recover from childhood exposure to domestic violence (CEDV). Analysis of participants' transcripts revealed five important themes related to this transformation process: 1) committing to a life of nonviolence, 2) understanding and accepting the realities of their childhood, 3) choosing to forgive parents, 4) navigating adult child-parental contact and 5) accessing informal and formal support networks. This study's findings may be translated by helping professionals into prevention efforts and intervention strategies for male child witnesses to stop the cycle of violence.
