Objectives

This study examines how sexuality, gender, and severity affect the willingness of third parties to mobilize facets of the criminal justice system in response to witnessing intimate partner violence (IPV).

Methods

An M-Turk online sample of 803 adults in the USA completed a factorial vignette survey. Participants were presented with an incident of intimate partner violence and asked to report how likely they would be to notify police and select jail as punishment for the perpetrator.

Results

Results of the study uncover no clear evidence of heteronormative bias. Rather, female victims of IPV garner the most support from third parties. Furthermore, respondents were more likely to favor a jail sentence for male perpetrators. Patterns were amplified in severe incidents.

Conclusion

The current study suggests that gender and violence severity, rather than sexuality, are the most salient predictors of the third-party’s decision to notify the police and prefer strong criminal justice punishments.

亲密伴侣暴力和第三方法律动员:考虑性行为、性别和暴力严重程度的作用

目标

本研究探讨了性取向、性别和严重程度如何影响第三方动员刑事司法系统各方面应对目睹亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 的意愿。

方法

M-Turk 对美国 803 名成年人进行了在线抽样,完成了阶乘小插图调查。参与者被告知发生了亲密伴侣暴力事件,并被要求报告他们通知警方并选择入狱作为对肇事者的惩罚的可能性有多大。

结果

研究结果没有发现异性恋偏见的明确证据。相反,IPV 的女性受害者获得了第三方的最多支持。此外,受访者更有可能支持对男性施暴者判处监禁。严重事件中的模式被放大。

结论

目前的研究表明,性别和暴力的严重程度,而不是性行为,是第三方决定通知警方并倾向于严厉的刑事司法惩罚的最显着的预测因素。
