| Sumario: | Longitudinal studies show that female aggression and propensities for intimate partner violence (IPV) develop autonomously. However, the public, police, courts, and custody assessors ascribe—despite the empirical evidence—to a “gender paradigm” of female violence where female perpetration is seen as reactive, less serious, and deserving of less punishment than equivalent male IPV perpetration. Surveys indicate that female IPV perpetration is more frequent than male IPV perpetration, and physical and psychological effects for victims are similar regardless of gender. Similar psychological syndromes (negative emotionality and borderline personality) predict IPV in both genders independent of the partners’ use of IPV. |
