Problem drinking significantly predicts intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration and victimization for both men and women. Partner drinking and relationship dissatisfaction play key roles in mediating these effects, particularly for women.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Sociology
  • Criminology

Background:

  • Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a significant public health issue.
  • The role of problem drinking in IPV perpetration and victimization requires further investigation.
  • Understanding mediating factors like relationship dissatisfaction and partner drinking is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the relationship between problem drinking and IPV perpetration and victimization in men and women.
  • To determine if this relationship is spurious.
  • To assess the mediating roles of relationship dissatisfaction and partner drinking.

Main Methods:

  • Longitudinal data from 725 nonclinical participants (aged 12-31) were analyzed across five waves.
  • Regression analyses controlled for eight common risk factors.

  • Mediating effects of relationship dissatisfaction and partner drinking were assessed.

    • Main Results:

    • Problem drinking significantly predicted IPV perpetration and victimization for both genders.
    • For women, partner drinking fully mediated the effects of problem drinking on perpetration.
    • Relationship dissatisfaction fully mediated perpetration for both genders and partially mediated male victimization.

    Conclusions:

    • The link between problem drinking and IPV is not spurious.
    • Partner drinking increases risk for women, mediating their own problem drinking's effect on perpetration.
    • Interventions targeting problem drinking in young men may reduce IPV.
