This study examined psychosocial characteristics of individuals at risk for perpetrating both intimate partner violence (IPV risk) and child physical abuse (CPA risk). The sample consisted of 775 female and 592 male Navy recruits.
Survey data of 1,367 Navy recruits were utilized to explore the demographic and psychosocial variables associated with those who are at risk for engaging in intimate partner violence (IPV) and child physical abuse (CPA).
