The Relation of Interracial Relationships to Intimate Partner Violence by College Students

Abstract: This study explores the likelihood of physical violence perpetration against an intimate partner in same-race relationships in comparison with those in interracial relationships. The sample consists of 1,174 students at four American universities and one Canadian university. Results indicate little difference between racial groups in the percent who reported minor assaults but large differences in severe assaults. Students in interracial relationships did not report more intimate partner violence than same-rac… Show more

“…Interestingly, persons who reported their racial/ethnic identity as “Other” had greater odds of reporting all forms of IPV compared with White participants. These findings echo the discrepant findings on the effect of race/ethnicity on IPV (Field et al, 2015; Próspero & Kim, 2009; Raghavan et al, 2009).…”

“…One study of college-age couples found that 80% of participants reported experiencing IPV within their relationship, with LBGT participants couples reporting higher rates of IPV compared with their heterosexual counterparts (Graham et al, 2016). Furthermore, there is contradictory evidence in differences in rates of IPV by racial identity, with some racial groups experiencing greater rates of IPV compared with White populations while other studies show no differences in rates of IPV by racial identity (Barrick, Krebs, & Lindquist, 2013; Field, Kimuna, & Lang, 2015; Próspero & Kim, 2009; Raghavan, Rajah, Gentile, Collado, & Kavanagh, 2009).…”

“…While a majority of student populations in HBCUs are Black/African Americans, studies have noted that college students in HBCUs (Barrick et al, 2013;Hall & Jones, 2022) and Black/African American students in PWI settings are more vulnerable to IPV victimization and perpetration than their white counterparts (Gill et al, 2020). Field et al (2015) found that students attending two U.S. HBCUs (n = 364) were nearly twice as likely to perpetuate severe IPV toward a partner compared to those attending three U.S. and Canadian PWIs (n = 809). Additionally, Gill et al (2020) found racial differences in different types of IPV victimization in the past 12 months among female college students (N = 982) using data from seven PWI and HBCU colleges in Georgia.…”

“…Gender-based attitudes are significantly associated with higher approval of physical, psychological and sexual violence against women, lower levels of perceived seriousness for acts of interpersonal violence, initiation and perpetration of violence against women, and tacit acceptance of coercive marriages (Field, Kimuna, & Lang, 2015;Reyes et al, 2016;Scarduzio et al, 2016;Umana, Fawole, & Adeoye, 2014).…”
