abstract="INTRODUCTION: Although the association between substance use and dating violence is  well-established in the research literature, there is limited research establishing  the temporal co-occurrence of these variables. The primary objective was to examine  the temporal relationship between alcohol and drug use and subsequent dating  violence using a proximal effects model. <br><br>METHODS: This prospective study obtained  daily diary data and weekly situational reports on abusive relationship events and  substance use from 72 college women in dating relationships over a 10-week interval. <br><br>RESULTS: Significant day-to-day associations were found between substance use and  dating violence for women's reports of their own behavior, and that of their male  partners. The odds of dating violence were approximately 2.0 times higher on days  when perpetrators drank alcohol. Women were approximately 2.0 times more likely to  perpetrate dating violence when using drugs, and men were approximately 1.4 times  more likely when they used drugs. Estimated blood alcohol concentration levels and  binge drinking were associated significantly with dating violence perpetration for  women's reports of men's behavior as well as for women's reports of their own  aggression. These findings held when examining severe versus minor dating violence  as well as any versus no dating violence. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: These results further support  an association between substance use and partner aggression at daily and situational  levels of analysis, extending prior clinical findings to a college dating sample. Taken with previous research findings, our results suggest the need for college  sexual assault and dating violence prevention programs to target reductions in  substance use.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
