TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Perpetrators of intimate partner sexual violence: Are there unique characteristics associated with making partners have sex without a condom? JO - Violence against women A1 - Purdie, Michele Parkhill A1 - Abbey, Antonia A1 - Jacques-Tiura, Angela J. SP - 1086 EP - 1097 VL - 16 IS - 10 N2 - This study examined correlates of making an intimate partner engage in unprotected sex among perpetrators of sexual violence. Based on the Confluence Model, we hypothesized that power and impersonal sex motives would be higher among perpetrators who made a dating partner have unprotected sex. Among a subsample of 78 male college students, significant differences were found for acceptance of verbal pressure, positive attitudes about casual sex, frequency of sexual intercourse, and physical injuries to dating partners. These findings highlight the importance of integrating theories and interventions directed at sexual assault and sexual risk reduction.
