摘要
Studies of individual attachment features have linked insecure attachment to intimate partner violence (IPV), but these studies have neither taken into account couple-level factors nor evidence of high rates of dual-partner perpetration. The current study examined three forms of IPV as a function of both partners' adult attachment characteristics in order to better understand the maintenance of relationship violence by using a dyadic statistical design. Heterosexual couples (n = 163) were recruited from the community. Results suggest that one's own attachment avoidance and a partner's attachment avoidance and anxiety was associated with perpetration of physical assault. Similarly, one's own attachment avoidance and a partner's attachment avoidance and anxiety was associated with perpetration of psychological aggression. Attachment anxiety influenced one's own perpetration of sexual coercion and their partner's perpetration. Thus, functional analysis of violence in terms of attachment and risk regulation may afford targeted interventions to certain types of couples.
