Abstract

The primary aim of this investigation was to examine the association between men's level of mindfulness and histories of alcohol consumption and sexual aggression toward intimate partners. Participants were 167 heterosexual drinking males who completed self‐report measures of mindfulness, frequency and quantity of alcohol consumption during the past 12 months and sexual aggression against intimate partners during the past 12 months. Results indicated that a history of consuming larger amounts when drinking was associated with more frequent sexual coercion/aggression among men who reported low, but not high, levels of mindfulness. However, drinking more frequently by itself was not associated with more frequent sexual coercion/aggression. These results support the attention‐allocation model and suggest implications for future intervention research aimed at reducing alcohol‐related aggression. Aggr.

  • Findings regarding the potential inhibiting role of adaptive emotion regulation strategy use are mixed.

    “However, while maladaptive emotion regulation is a well-established impelling factor of IPV perpetration, findings regarding the potential inhibiting role of adaptive emotion regulation strategy use are mixed, calling for further research (Gallagher et al., 2010; Maldonado et al., 2015; Maloney, Echkhardt, & Oesterle, 2023; McNulty & Hellmuth, 2008; Neilson et al., 2023; Puente-Martínez et al., 2”

    The Discussion (page unavailable) reports a conditional finding: mindfulness moderated the association of heavy, but not frequent, alcohol consumption with sexual coercion or aggression toward intimate partners. This supports a limited account of when mindfulness may inhibit aggression, but the paper does not establish that findings across adaptive emotion-regulation strategies are mixed. (LLM, conf=0.82)

  • Mindfulness can be either a temporary state or a stable trait, and it is a skill that can be strengthened.

    “Mindfulness can be a temporary state or a stable trait, but it is also a skill that can be enhanced (Gallagher, Hudepohl, & Parrott, 2010).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
