Abstract

A systematic review of risk factors for intimate partner violence IPV was conducted. Inclusion criteria included publication in a peer-reviewed journal, a representative community sample or a clinical sample with a control group comparison, a response rate of at least 50%, use of a physical or sexual violence outcome measure, and control of confounding factors in the analyses. A total of 228 articles were included (170 articles with adult and 58 with adolescent samples). Organized by levels of a dynamic developmental systems perspective, risk factors included (a) contextual characteristics of partners (demographic, neighborhood, community, and school factors), (b) developmental characteristics and behaviors of the partners (e.g., family, peer, psychological/behavioral, and cognitive factors), and (c) relationship influences and interactional patterns. Comparisons to a prior review highlight developments in the field in the past 10 years. Recommendations for intervention and policy along with future directions for IPV risk factor research are presented.

  • Social norms and social processes are important in enforcing IPV.

    “highlights the importance of social norms and social processes in enforcing IPV (cf. Capaldi et al., 2012; Yakubovich et al., 2018).”

    From Theoretical Analysis of the Cycle of Intimate Partner Violence: A Systematic Review (2025) · cites this paper as Capaldi et al., 2012

    The Results (page unavailable) link attitudes approving of violence and neighborhood norms of nonintervention with IPV, and describe aggressive peers as a strong predictor of adolescent dating aggression. But the review says evidence on neighborhood social processes is mixed and that cross-sectional findings cannot establish whether attitudes precede IPV. It therefore supports their relevance, not the stronger implication that social norms and processes enforce IPV. (LLM, conf=0.82)

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.
