Abstract

The present chapter examines evidence concerning associations between misuse of substances and intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration. There is consensus that alcohol misuse is consistently associated with IPV perpetration; however, this association is exceedingly complex, of moderate strength, and impacted by a variety of moderating factors. Misuse of substances other than alcohol show a more inconsistent connection to IPV perpetration. We examine the ability of existing theoretical approaches to make sense of these complex associations. In particular, we focus on the Instigating-Impelling-Inhibiting (I³) Model as an ideal framework to model how substance misuse facilitates IPV perpetration. In addition, we examine the implications of this integrative theoretical approach as a basis for (a) future research on substance misuse and IPV perpetration, especially from a dyadic perspective and (b) the development of effective interventions for individuals at high risk for engaging in alcohol-facilitated IPV.
