Describe the three major types of intimate partner violence? In which type or types is a victim–overlap likely?
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Situational couple violence is the most common type of IPV, which occurs when conflict in a relationship escalates to violence, but the violence is not used by either partner as a control tactic, and men and women are equally likely to be perpetrators and victims of this type of IPV. Intimate terrorism, also referred to as battering or coercive control, while not the most common type of IPV, is the type likely to be experienced by women who seek assistance from the police or domestic violence shelters and involves a pattern of coercive control that involves the partner’s use of physical violence and related tactics (emotional abuse or economic abuse) as a means of maintaining control. The last type, violent resistance (also referred to as defensive violence), involves women fighting back against intimate terrorism. Victim–offenders are more likely to exist within common couple violence and violent resistance typologies.
