Describe the two types of intimate partner violence identified by Johnson (2008). How do they help explain the frequency of intimate partner violence committed by men and women respectively?
What will be an ideal response?
Situational couple violence occurs when heated conflicts get out of hand and escalate unpredictably into violence. Intimate terrorism is relatively rare and occurs when one partner consistently uses violence and fear to dominate and control the other. The former is committed at slightly higher rates by women than men. While the latter is committed more frequently by men than women. However, collapsing across these two types of intimate partner violence reveals that men and women report being the victims of intimate partner violence at similar rates.
