Project Overview
This study involved secondary analysis for 323 young adults (184 women and 139 men; average age 21 years) and their romantic partners from the Linking the Interests of Families and Teachers (LIFT) community sample. The study first used a prospective design to test a mediational model of developmental risk factors (family, peer, youth adjustment) in childhood and adolescence to intimate partner violence (IPV) in young adulthood, including physical, psychological, and sexual IPV and injuries. Second, the long-term intervention impacts of the LIFT program on IPV were tested. Third, the team examined proximal associations in young adulthood and how relationship factors (couple interaction and partner adjustment) are related to couples’ IPV and injuries.
