The purpose of this investigation is to study gender differences in the use of intimate partner violence (IPV) and to determine the applicability of differential association and differential reinforcement as explanations for IPV among males and females. A survey measuring IPV was given to 400 undergraduate students at a southwestern university. The data used for the analysis consisted of a sample of 400 undergraduate students that participated in a survey. Out of the 400 students 308 were used for analysis, these students had reported being in an intimate relationship within the past year. Measures representing differential association and differential reinforcement theories were used to explain the occurrence of IPV. Various techniques were utilized to analyze the statistics including a correlation matrix comparing males and females, regression analysis, as well as descriptive statistics.

520 $a The purpose of this investigation is to study gender differences in the use of intimate partner violence (IPV) and to determine the applicability of differential association and differential reinforcement as explanations for IPV among males and females. A survey measuring IPV was given to 400 undergraduate students at a southwestern university. The data used for the analysis consisted of a sample of 400 undergraduate students that participated in a survey. Out of the 400 students 308 were used for analysis, these students had reported being in an intimate relationship within the past year. Measures representing differential association and differential reinforcement theories were used to explain the occurrence of IPV. Various techniques were utilized to analyze the statistics including a correlation matrix comparing males and females, regression analysis, as well as descriptive statistics.
520 $a Males were more likely to engage in IPV if they were socially reinforced by conventional gender roles, in contrast, females were less likely to engage in IPV if they were socially reinforced. Both males and females participation in IPV were partially explained by differential association variables, therefore, the family and friends of the respondent affected whether or not they engaged in IPV.
520 $a Overall, males were more likely to engage in IPV if they were socially reinforced, in contrast, females were less likely to engage in IPV if they were socially reinforced. Both males and females reported having to use self-defense, although females reported having to use self-defense much more than males. The stereotype that males are always the abuser and that females are always the victim is not supported by this study; rather, either gender could be victimized or could be the victimizer.
