Couples

There is a growing research base focusing on intimate partner aggression (IPA) in combat veterans, although little work has focused on IPA assessment.

Intimate partner aggression (IPA) occurs in a significant number of couples. This study considered the reports of Veterans and their partners on their rates of IPA and examined possible factors that influenced the couples' report of IPA.

Both social and individual factors play a role in shaping one’s diet and exercise habits.

This study presents data on the association of intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration and rates of psychiatric disorders, and other correlates.

Importance  Couples are highly concordant for unhealthy behaviors, and a change in one partner’s health behavior is often associated with a change in the other partner’s behavior.

This study investigated associations among one partner's relational satisfaction and the other partner's style of attachment and emotional communication.

Married men and women (N = 1,899 couples) reported readiness to eat a healthier diet, lose weight, and get more exercise (stage of change) and indicated whether they were confident to make these changes (self-efficacy).

Low physical activity levels are a public health concern. Few studies have assessed the concordance of physical activity change among spouses.
