Book Predictors of College Students  Dating Violence Perceptions and Help seeking Recommendations

Download or read book Predictors of College Students Dating Violence Perceptions and Help seeking Recommendations written by Kathleen M. Hutchinson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical and psychological aggression in dating relationships is prevalent among college students (e.g., Kaura & Lohman, 2007; Shook, Gerrity, Jurich, & Segrist, 2000; Straus, 2008), and students experiencing dating IPV are most likely to speak to friends (Prospero & Vohra-Gupta, 2008). The current study investigated differences in perceptions of heterosexual dating IPV and help-seeking recommendations for a friend as a function of scenario type (e.g., male perpetrator/female victim and female perpetrator/male victim) and participant sex. The study also examined gender role attitudes and attitudes toward dating violence that have been associated with perceptions of dating IPV (e.g., Berkel et al., 2004; Coleman & Stith, 1997; Hillier & Foddy, 1993; Hilton, Harris, & Rice, 2003; Willis, Hallinan, & Melby, 1996). A college sample (N=200) read a dating IPV scenario depicting either male-to-female or female-to-male dating IPV. A series of 2x2 ANCOVAs, controlling for previous exposure to IPV and attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help, showed that women were more likely than men to hold more egalitarian gender role attitudes, be less accepting of dating violence, perceive the behaviors in the dating scenario as more serious, and be more likely to recommend that a friend seek help at the counseling center. Participants were more likely to recommend the counseling center for female victims than male victims. Path analysis results provided initial support for a theoretical model of counseling center help-seeking recommendations.

Book How Exposure to Parental Intimate Partner Violence Affects College Students  Dating Violence

Download or read book How Exposure to Parental Intimate Partner Violence Affects College Students Dating Violence written by Chu Chian Chong and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of childhood exposure to parental intimate partner violence (EPIPV) on dating violence (DV) were examined through two layers of mediations. Based on attachment theory, individuals who are exposed to parental intimate partner violence are less likely to experience secure parent-child attachment, which in turn transfers to insecure adult attachment that is prone to perceive significant others as less trustworthy and less reliable as well as higher likelihood of over-reacting and/or staying in an unhealthy relationship. In the second layer of mediation, insecure adult attachment would lead to biased SIP which in turn, would result in an increase of DV. A total of 327 university students participated in the study by voluntarily completing the research questionnaires. Among them, 253 reported having experienced mild to severe DV and were included in the final data set. The data analyses procedures included examinations of the measurement models and structural equation modeling (SEM) analyses. Findings from the final models best supported by the data indicated that EPIPV predicted both dating violence perpetration and victimization and that EPIPV predicted adult attachment anxiety and avoidance, both of which are consistent with existing literature. However, findings revealed that EPIPV did not predict SIP and SIP was not predictive of DV perpetration. In addition, neither adult attachment anxiety nor attachment avoidance was predictive of DV perpetration and victimization. For DV victimization SEM model, adult attachment anxiety predicted SIP, however, SIP did not predict DV victimization. Findings are discussed based on DV literature and attachment theory. Limitations, clinical implications, and future research directions are also outlined.

Book Violence in Dating Relationships

Download or read book Violence in Dating Relationships written by Jan E. Stets and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1989-05-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extremely valuable collection of fourteen chapters is divided into two sections, with the first section covering research on physical abuse in dating relationships and the second section covering the issue of sexual abuse in dating relationships. With the increasing public awareness of and concern about acquaintance rape, this is an excellent and timely book. It should be in the library of any researcher who studies violence against women and it would also be an invaluable resource for any college faculty or administrator who seeks to provide a healthy educational environment for all students. The Community Psychologist Fourteen significant articles on physical and sexual abuse in dating relationships provide a comprehensive, interdisciplinary review of the subject. The contributors to this anthology examine every aspect of the serious, but usually hidden social problems of dating violence. The articles create a theoretical framework for understanding physical and sexual abuse and chronicle the antecedents and consequences of different types of abusive behavior. State of the art research on dating violence provides the reader with extensive material. Each chapter ends with policy implications and directions for future research. Educators, researchers, and practitioners in sociology, criminology, psychology, psychiatry, and women's studies will find valuable information on this important subject. The first part of the collection presents statistical information and compares dating violence with cohabitating and marital violence. Such subjects as courtship aggression and the effects of gender identity and self-esteem on dating violence are explored. One study suggests two types of courtship violence--predatory violence and relational violence. Another addresses patterns in help seeking behavior by those abused. The second part of the book deals with sexual aggression in dating relationships. Victimization, as well as the prevalence, risk factors, and long term consequences of date rape are presented. Other topics include predictors of sexual aggression, dating behaviors and their relationship to the risk of date rape, and acquaintance rape.

Book Childhood Abuse  Emotion Regulation  Alcohol  and Dating Violence Victimization as Cross sectional and Longitudinal Predictors of Dating Violence Perpetration Among College Women

Download or read book Childhood Abuse Emotion Regulation Alcohol and Dating Violence Victimization as Cross sectional and Longitudinal Predictors of Dating Violence Perpetration Among College Women written by Ellen E. Haynes and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical and psychological dating violence is perpetrated by women at high rates on college campuses. Several risk factors have been identified that are associated with an increased risk of female-perpetrated dating violence, including a history of physical, sexual, and/or emotional abuse in childhood. Moreover, some research suggests that childhood abuse increases difficulties in emotion regulation, and these difficulties may be associated with a higher risk of perpetrating dating violence. Lastly, alcohol use and women’s psychological, physical, and sexual dating violence victimization in adulthood are consistent predictors of women’s dating violence perpetration.

Book Dissatisfaction with Relationship Power and Dating Violence Perpetration by Men and Women

Download or read book Dissatisfaction with Relationship Power and Dating Violence Perpetration by Men and Women written by Shelby Annette Kaura and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focuses on the relationship between dissatisfaction with ones power in dating relationships, parental violence, and dating violence perpetration. A sample of 352 male and 296 female undergraduate college students completed a dating violence survey, including selected subscales from the Revised Conflict Tactics Scales (CTS2) and the Relationship Power Scale. Findings show that relationship power dissatisfaction is associated with the use of violence in dating relationships by both men and women. More importantly, parental violence emerged as an even stronger predictor of dating violence perpetration. Findings also indicate that men's perpetration of dating violence is more strongly related to experiencing mother's violence, whereas women's perpetration of dating violence is more strongly related to experiencing father's violence. Results of this study suggest that it is important for researchers to recognize the impact of gender on dating violence perpetration.

Book An Application of Marital Horizon Theory to Dating Violence Perpetration

Download or read book An Application of Marital Horizon Theory to Dating Violence Perpetration written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An individual's desire to marry and ideal age of marriage, two elements of the marital horizon theory, are examined in relation to dating violence perpetration, both physical assault and psychological aggression, in the present study using a sample of 611 college students from a large Midwestern university. Looking at the possible predictive power that the marital horizon variables might have on dating violence perpetration, above and beyond other known predictors of dating violence, could reveal an important area of investigation in both the emerging adulthood literature and the dating violence literature. Results indicate that victimization of dating violence accounted for the vast majority of the variance in perpetration of dating violence. Desire to marry emerged as a significant predictor of women's perpetration of psychological aggression only when the victimization variables were excluded from the regression equation.

Book The Perceived Quality of Parent Child Relationships and Dating Violence Experiences Among a Predominantly Heterosexual  Female  and Hispanic Identified Sample of Emerging Adults

Download or read book The Perceived Quality of Parent Child Relationships and Dating Violence Experiences Among a Predominantly Heterosexual Female and Hispanic Identified Sample of Emerging Adults written by Amanda M Cummings and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence has been identified as a serious public health problem among adolescents and emerging adults. Recently, there has been an increase in research focused on identifying risk and protective factors for dating violence across the individual-, relationship-, community-, and societal-levels, yet studies exploring associations between parent-child relationships and dating violence have been lacking. The present study examined the associations between the perceived quality of mother-child relationships and father-child relationships and dating violence victimization and perpetration experiences among a sample of emerging adults. A cross-sectional sample of 454 undergraduate men and women from three universities were assessed at one time point via an online survey that employed empirically valid and reliable measures of parent-child relationship quality and past year dating violence experiences. Structural equation modeling was used to explore the relationship between these variables and included gender, country of birth, and sexual orientation as covariates in the models. Results indicated that individuals who reported higher quality relationships with their mothers and fathers had fewer victimization and perpetration experiences. There were significant differences on dating violence perpetration experiences by gender, with women reporting higher means for psychological aggression only. Individuals born in the USA reported higher victimization and perpetration experiences, specifically psychological aggression and physical assault, than those who identified as foreign-born. Similar trends were found for those who identified with a sexual orientation other than heterosexual. Differences in dating violence experiences between subgroups are explained in detail. Limitations as well as implications for future research and clinical practice are discussed.

Book Protective Factors Against Dating Violence Perpetration and Victimization

Download or read book Protective Factors Against Dating Violence Perpetration and Victimization written by Meagan L. Kunitzer and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence is a prominent problem among college students that can result in harmful physical and mental health outcomes. To date, much research has focused on risk factors, but less is known about protective factors that may decrease the likelihood of dating violence. As such, the current paper examines protective factors (e.g. religion, positive parental relationships) against perpetrating and/or experiencing dating violence and whether these protective factors operate similarly for both perpetration and victimization. Data were gathered in 2013-2014 at two large public universities using pencil and paper surveys (N = 1482). Bivariate results revealed that women have more protective factors than men. Multivariate results showed that religious attendance, lower entitlement, more positive maternal relationship quality, and having more close friends with lower rates of drinking were all protective against dating violence perpetration and victimization. Additionally, lower respondent drinking was also protective against both dating violence perpetration and victimization. These findings highlight the importance of positive friendships as protective factors against dating violence victimization and perpetration. Finally, current study findings also emphasize that abstaining from alcohol is protective against dating violence victimization and perpetration.

Book Acceptability of Violence  Gender  and Dating Violence

Download or read book Acceptability of Violence Gender and Dating Violence written by Shelby Annette Kaura and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study contains two separate, yet related research projects. The first is a study on dating violence perpetration, with the associations of relationship commitment and jealousy on dating violence perpetration examined. Acceptability of violence, another variable related to violence perpetration, was examined as a potential moderator of relationship commitment and jealousy on dating violence perpetration. Using a sample of 155 male and 417 female college students, t-tests showed that women reported higher perpetration levels than men. Hierarchical regression analyses found that only jealousy was associated with dating violence perpetration - and only for women. Neither relationship commitment nor acceptability of violence was associated with perpetration for either men or women. Additionally, acceptability of violence did not emerge as a significant moderator between for these relationships. However, the three-way interaction of acceptability of violence, relationship commitment, and jealousy for dating violence perpetration was significant. In addition, the two-way interaction between jealousy and relationship commitment was significant. However, when fully interactive models were run separately by gender, both of these interactions failed to reach statistically significant levels. The second study examined the effects of dating violence victimization. Two of the most often reported consequences of dating violence are its impact on the victim's satisfaction with their relationship with their abusive partner, and its impact on the victim's mental health. Research suggests that the strength of these relationships may be moderated by the degree to which dating violence is acceptable to the victim. However, studies of these relationships have been limited to samples of victimized women. Using the same sample as study 1, t-tests for gender differences found that men and women reported similar dating violence victimization levels. Hierarchical regression analyses found that for men, only mental health problems were significantly associated with higher levels of victimization. For women, dating violence victimization was associated with decreased relationship satisfaction and increased mental health problems. However, contrary to the hypothesis, acceptability of violence was not associated with the relationship between satisfaction and dating violence victimization or mental health problems and dating violence victimization for either men or women.

Book Daily Study of Drinking and Dating Violence Perpetration

Download or read book Daily Study of Drinking and Dating Violence Perpetration written by Catherine V.S. Andersen and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence, including physical, psychological, and sexual violence, is a prevalent and detrimental occurrence among college students. Although research has consistently shown a link between alcohol use and dating violence, not all college students who become intoxicated then become violent toward their dating partners. Therefore, there are likely other variables that impact the strength of the relationship between acute alcohol intoxication and dating violence. This is consistent with theoretical perspectives explaining the relationship between these two factors; and theoretical consideration also calls for the examination of these factors in a dyadic context. Therefore, this investigation endeavored to examine the moderating role that individual difference factors, specifically trait mindfulness and anger management, have on the relationship between alcohol and dating violence perpetration in college couples. Archival data from a 60-day daily diary study was used to ascertain whether the relationship between proximal alcohol use and dating violence perpetration varied in strength in individuals and couples depending on levels of trait mindfulness and anger management. Results indicated that couples’ conjoint mindfulness interacted with alcohol use to predict physical aggression perpetration, such that the alcohol use increased the odds of physical aggression perpetration for couples with low, but not high, conjoint mindfulness. Additionally, couples’ conjoint anger management interacted with alcohol use to predict sexual aggression perpetration. Specifically, this relationship was strongest for couples with high conjoint anger management. No other interactions were significant. Implications and directions for future research were discussed.

Book Relationship Dynamics and Perpetration of Intimate Partner Violence Among Female Chinese College Students

Download or read book Relationship Dynamics and Perpetration of Intimate Partner Violence Among Female Chinese College Students written by Jingshuai Du and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In China, most violence studies focus on male intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration and female victimization, and studies on dating violence and female IPV perpetration are less common. Although female IPV perpetration and gender symmetry in IPV in China has surfaced with very recent research, there have been limited studies examining the factors related to female perpetration in dating relationships in China. In the current research, we aim to examine how relationship factors, including anger management, communication problems, relationship conflict, and relationship distress are linked with female physical and psychological IPV perpetration. We included 857 female college students in three regions in China from the International Dating Violence database. A single path analysis model was performed to answer three questions: 1) Is the participants' level of anger management skills associated with lower levels of physical and psychological IPV perpetration; 2) Is the participants' level of communication problems, relationship conflict, and relationship distress associated with higher levels of physical and psychological IPV perpetration and; 3) Does the participants' level of anger management skills moderate the negative effects of relationship conflict and distress in predicting their self-reported level of IPV perpetration. We found that Chinese college women's anger management skills and communication problems were both significantly associated with physical and psychological abuse on both minor and severe levels, relationship conflict was significantly associated with minor physical, minor psychological and severe psychological abuse, and anger management skills moderated the negative effects of relationship conflict on female IPV perpetration. Our findings suggest that it may be important to explore the role of college women's anger management skills, communication problems and conflict resolution skills in their dating relationships, as well as to develop female-based intervention programs to increase Chinese college women's anger management, communication skills and conflict resolution skills, in order to reduce their levels of IPV perpetration.

Book Assessing Risks and Potential Protective Factors of Dating Violence Perpetration and Victimization

Download or read book Assessing Risks and Potential Protective Factors of Dating Violence Perpetration and Victimization written by Brian Ermon Tussey and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence is prevalent among college students. While past studies have used multiple theories to explain risks for dating violence perpetration and victimization, the literature on dating violence remains disjointed, using only one or two theoretical perspectives in their models of dating violence. In this study, I examine dating violence perpetration and victimization from four key theoretical perspectives: the background-situational model of dating violence, social learning theory, attachment theory, and the antisocial orientation perspective. Analyses demonstrated that elements of all four theoretical perspectives were associated with dating violence perpetration and victimization. In addition, religiosity and maternal relationship quality were important protective factors against dating violence. Implications of the study findings on practice and future research are discussed.
