Childhood Perception as a Link Between Exposure to Interparental Violence in Childhood and Mental State in Adulthood
Professional literature emphasizes the harmful and long-term effects of childhood exposure to interparental violence on adult mental states. This study examines the perception of one’s own childhood (here: childhood perception) as a potential linking mechanism connecting these phenomena. Using structural equation modeling with a sample of 548 adults, the research tested whether childhood perception (defined as closeness to parents and positive ch…

Gender differences in intimate‐conflict initiation and escalation tendencies
According to gender motivation theory, men are driven by a desire to enhance their status; whereas, women are motivated by a desire to reduce risk, and the behavioral expressions of those motivations are context-dependent. In order to test this theory in the context of intimate relationships, this study compared men's and women's escalatory tendencies in the initial development of intimate conflict. These tendencies were conceptualized in terms o…
Critical Review of Hamby’s (2014) Article Titled “Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Research, Scientific Progress, Scientific Challenges, and Gender”
In a recent article, Hamby advocates the replacement of the “old” Conflict Tactic Scales used to measure physical partner violence (PV) with a new measurement instrument that represents and supports a thesis that gender use of physical PV is asymmetrical rather than symmetrical. This article takes a critical look at the logic, assumptions, arguments, examples, interpretations, and conclusions, presented in Hamby’s article, and in some cases disag…

Deterrence of Men from Using Aggression toward Female Partners
The study explored how men were deterred from using aggression toward a female partner by examining men's evaluation of their female partner's readiness to respond to their aggression (by involving formal and/or informal social agents and by threatening to leave or leaving the relationship). The data were obtained from 217 men. Findings show that the higher the men evaluate the women's readiness to respond to their aggression, the more severe the…

Women’s perspective on men’s control and aggression in intimate relationships
The relationship of men's self-control capability; their need to control their wives; and their use of verbal aggression, threats, and physical forms of aggression against their partners, as reported by women, were examined. Data were obtained from a stratified probability sample of 2,544 women drawn from the general population in Israel. Initially, structural equation modeling analysis showed that (a) men's need to control their partners and the…

Exploring the Intention to React to Aggressive Action Among Israeli Adolescents
The aim of the current study was to explore male and female adolescents' intentions to react to verbal and physical aggression issued by other males and females of the same age. The study is based on a sample of 292 male and female adolescents from 12 classes in four schools in northern Israel, two junior‐high and two high‐schools, 46.7% were males and 53.3% females. Sixteen short scenarios were presented to the interviewees, consisting of eight …
The Why and What of Intimate Conflict
Gender differences in the intention to react to aggressive action at home and in the workplace
This study explored gender differences in escalatory tendencies, defined as individuals' intentions to react when faced with the prospect of potential aggression from others. The escalatory tendencies are based on an interaction unit of analysis, which is a proxy representation of behavioral intention from planned behavior theory. This study consists of a convenience sample of 264 male and female participants who were asked to report their escala…
The First Israeli National Survey on Domestic Violence
The aim of the survey reported in this article was to assess the frequency and severity of violence against women in Israel and to identify some major risk factors associated with that violence. During 2000 and 2001, a structured self-report questionnaire was administered to a stratified probability sample drawn from the general population in Israel including 2,544 households, of which 2,092 included only women respondents and 452 included both m…
The Impact of Father-to-Mother Aggression on the Structure and Content of Adolescents’ Perceptions of Themselves and their Parents
This study examined the differential influence of the father’s level of aggression toward the mother on adolescents’ perceptions of their parents and of themselves and how these perceptions are interrelated. This study consisted of a probability sample of 1,014 Jewish Israeli youth between the ages of 13 and 18. The findings indicate that in cases in which there was no father-to-mother aggression, adolescents held a coherent image structure of th…

Choice and Empowerment for Battered Women Who Stay
This article examines the individual and social construction of empowerment for battered women who choose to stay with their abusers through a critical examination of the images of battered women who stay, constructed in the professional literature on various ecological levels, and a proposal of a constructivist model for empowering battered women who choose to stay that balances between their needs and rights. The model includes dimensions of ph…

Overdrawing and Balancing Accounts
This article attempts to develop a theoretical model addressing the structure and dynamics of the repository, or “archive,” from which partners draw memories contributing to the escalation to violence in intimate relationships. Sampling and data analysis followed the principles of grounded theory. The findings indicate two kinds of memories are stored in the archive: one raw, the other molded. Only molded memories are in use during the process of…

Reconstructing Intimate Violence
The purpose of this article is to explore the structure and content of recollections of violent events among cohabiting partners. The authors used qualitative methodology to examine 48 in-depth interviews. Content analysis of the interviews yielded two parallel and interrelated continua: One represented the life circumstances (staying in spite of violence) impinging on the recollections; the other dealt with the content of the memories of violent…
