Abstract

A gap in research exists regarding intimate partner violence (IPV) in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) individuals' relationships. The article begins with an overview of IPV victimization, perpetration, and related attitudinal differences between male and female LGBTQ college students. Study results found that females reported higher levels of psychological victimization than gay males. Additionally, the male participants reported greater attitudinal acceptance of IPV. Counseling implications regarding IPV victimization, perpetration, and attitudinal acceptance for IPV among LGBTQ populations are discussed.
