Abstract
Purpose
Globally, many children are exposed to violent discipline in multiple settings. Interventions to prevent violent discipline are therefore highly needed. In the present study, the feasibility of the intervention Interaction Competencies with Children – for Parents (ICC-P), an additional module of a school-based intervention for teachers, was tested. The intervention aims to prevent violent discipline by changing attitudes towards such method and fostering supportive adult-child interaction through non-violent interaction skills.
Methods
In total, 164 parents (Mage= 39.55, range = 24 70, 72.3% female) from four public secondary schools in Tanzania participated in a four-day training conducted by six trainers (Mage= 44.67, range = 40–47, 50% female). Using a One-Group Pre-Post design, we measured the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of the intervention qualitatively and quantitatively. Parents were assessed via self-administered questionnaires before and six weeks after the intervention. Trainers rated the implementation of every workshop session.
Results
Based on descriptive statistics and Classical Content Analysis, implementing trainers and participants rated ICC-P as feasible. Participants indicated a high need for such interventions and showed high acceptance. They were able to integrate core aspects of the intervention in their daily interactions with children. Using t-tests, ICC-P proved to be preliminarily effective; parents reported applying less violent discipline and holding more critical attitudes about such measures after the intervention.
Conclusion
ICC-P is feasible intervention that showed initial signs of effectiveness. We recommend combining the parents’ training module with the teachers’ module to prevent violence in multiple settings.

Purpose: Among men, violence is pervasive and associated with poor mental health, but little is known about which men are most vulnerable. Our purpose is to address this gap by exploring mental health and social determinants of health (SDOH) including gender role conflict (GRC) in heterogenous groups of men with distinct patterns of cumulative lifetime violence (CLV) as target and perpetrator.
Methods: Latent class analysis was conducted using means of 64 indicators of CLV severity collected from a community sample of 685 eastern Canadian men, ages 19 to 65 years. Class differences by SDOH, and depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were explored with Chi-square and analysis of variance.
Results: A 4-class solution was optimal. Class 1 had the lowest CLV severity; were more likely to be better educated, employed, and have little difficulty living on their incomes; and had better mental health than other classes. Class 2, characterized by moderate psychological violence as both target and perpetrator, had mean depression and PTSD scores at clinical levels, and more difficulty living on income than Class 1. Classes 3 and 4 were typified by high severity CLV as target but differentiated by Class 4 having the highest perpetration severity, higher GRC, and being older. In both classes, mean mental health scores were above cut-offs for clinical symptomology and higher than Classes 1 and 2.
Conclusion: This is the first evidence that distinct patterns of CLV severity among men intersect with GRC and SDOH and are uniquely associated with mental health.

Purpose
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a global problem with severe health and human rights implications. However, prevention of IPV recidivism has proved difficult, with high levels of treatment non-adherence including failure to complete IPV perpetration programs.
Method
The present study involved gathering data from the records of 169 men convicted of perpetrating intimate partner violence in Northern Ireland. Using a hierarchical binary logistic regression, motivation/readiness to change, as measured by the pre-contemplative stage of the Rhode Island Change Assessment Scale (URICA), was investigated as a predictor of IPV intervention program completion. The analysis also included deception covariates (self-deception and impression management).
Results
The results show that higher scores on the pre-contemplative subscale of the readiness to change scale were significantly associated with failure to complete the program, with an odds ratio of OR 0.93 (inverted OR = 1.08). The covariate self-deception was also significant in the final model, with higher scores in self-deception leading to an increased chance of non-completion, with an odds ratio of 0.89 (inverted OR = 1.12). A post-hoc Chi-Square test was carried out that showed treatment completers were less likely than non-completers to breach their probation conditions χ2(1, n = 148) = 69.85, p = < 0.001.
Conclusion
Due to the potentially positive impact of completing an intervention program for IPV perpetrator outcomes, the present study is important in terms of indicating that motivational stage, as well as self-deception, are relevant to treatment compliance. This finding suggests that targeting areas such as treatment readiness and self-deception may lead to improved treatment adherence and IPV perpetrator rehabilitation.
目的亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)是一个全球性问题,对健康和人权有严重影响。本研究从北爱尔兰 169 名因实施亲密伴侣暴力而被定罪的男性的记录中收集数据。本研究采用分层二元逻辑回归法,通过罗德岛州改变评估量表(URICA)的前沉思阶段来衡量改变的动机/准备程度,并将其作为完成 IPV 干预计划的预测因素进行调查。分析还包括欺骗协变量(自我欺骗和印象管理)。结果结果表明,改变准备量表中沉思前分量表的得分越高,与未能完成项目的几率比为 OR 0.93(倒置 OR = 1.08)有显著关系。在最终模型中,协变量自我欺骗也具有显著性,自我欺骗得分越高,未完成计划的几率越大,几率比为 0.89(倒置 OR = 1.12)。结论由于完成干预计划对 IPV 施暴者的结果具有潜在的积极影响,本研究在表明动机阶段和自我欺骗与治疗依从性相关方面具有重要意义。这一研究结果表明,针对治疗准备和自我欺骗等方面进行干预可能会改善治疗的依从性和 IPV 施暴者的康复。

Purpose
Youth intimate partner violence (YIPV) is an under-researched topic within the field of domestic violence. This is particularly true of same-sex YIPV. In this article, the words of one young man, Philip, are analyzed to explore how he narrates his process of defining his sexual experiences as abuse and, consequently, himself as a possible victim of IPV.
Methods
The qualitative in-depth interview with Philip was conducted as part of a larger study on YIPV in Norway, with a specific focus on sexual YIPV. The article is framed both theoretically and methodologically by the assumption that narratives give meaning to our experiences. Meta-narratives and turning points are used as tools for narrative analysis.
Results
Important contextual issues in Philip’s storyline include his prior exposure to severe homophobic bullying, being forced to return to the closet as his partner had not yet come out, and no prior experience of serious romantic relationship. Influential cultural meta-narratives regarding IPV and gender that complicate his process of identifying his experiences as abuse include the violence of adult men towards adult women, the ever-present male sex drive, and the importance of physical violence and bodily size and strength. The findings are discussed in light of the theory of the ideal victim.
Conclusion
Schools need to include sexual minority youth when teaching about sex and relationships, and professionals working with youth need to actively ask them about experiences of violence and abuse in their relationships, regardless of their sexuality.

Purpose
Sexual assault is a widespread issue on college campuses, wherein men disproportionately perpetrate this form of violence against women. While cross-sectional research has helped identify salient risk factors related to sexual perpetration, it remains critical for researchers to understand how these risk factors vary over time; however, numerous challenges exist to conducting longitudinal research on sexual perpetration. The current study was conducted to address one of the logistical barriers to longitudinal research — linking data anonymously — by examining two methods for participant-generated study IDs. Further, the current study examines if specific predictors of sexual assault (i.e., trait aggression, sexual assault victimization, and perpetration history) are related to study retention and successful re-creation of study IDs over time.
Methods
Participants included 271 college students (95.1% men) who completed the baseline survey, with 56.1% (n = 152) of the total sample whose data was retained for analyses were randomly assigned to create type A IDs and 43.9% (n = 119) randomly assigned to create type B IDs.
Results
A total of 35.1% of the study sample (n = 95) completed the one-week follow-up survey and successfully matched their IDs across time-points. There were no differences between ID types in match rates. Further, results indicated that no differences were detected related to sexual assault-specific predictors on either successful matching of IDs across time, or in study retention.
Conclusions
While none of the individual difference variables significantly predicted study retention or successful ID matching across time, numerous practical implications for improving longitudinal research related to sexual assault are discussed.

Purpose
This paper examined risk for interpersonal violence (family or dating violence, sexual harassment, or sexual violence) perpetration using individual- and campus-level factors to understand how variations in campus culture and environment might shape risk of perpetration.
Method
We conducted a secondary data analysis of data collected from 23,389 students at 12 universities that participated in a bystander intervention program evaluation from 2016 to 2019. We used multilevel logistic regression to analyze individual- (e.g., gender, association with risky peers, binge drinking) and campus-level factors (e.g., campus diversity, perceived institutional intolerance for sexual misconduct). The primary outcome was interpersonal violence perpetration.
Results
Individual- and campus-level variables were associated with perpetration. Perpetration risk factors included being younger, a cisgender man, in a relationship, associating with risky peers, and having drinking problems. At the campus-level, increased ethnic diversity, higher perceptions of institutional intolerance for sexual misconduct, and being on a campus in which students reported more awareness of or exposure to sexual violence programming was associated with reduced perpetration risk.
Conclusions
These findings highlight how campus-level factors contribute to risk of interpersonal violence perpetration. We recommend campuses develop prevention programs that target campus-level structures, attitudes, and norms that may encourage interpersonal violence perpetration.
