Journal Article Suggestion
Hey, really looking forward to learning more about IPV motivation through your chapter. I did a bit of research as I was going to choose this topic before I got sidetracked, this review was particularly helpful Motivation for Men and Women's IPV Perpetration --u3122707 (discuss • contribs) 04:35, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you! I will definitely have a look at this! --U3133258 (discuss • contribs) 07:37, 28 August 2017 (UTC) u3133258 5:58pm

Hi user 3133258, I am also looking forward to reading your book chapter, I did a quick search on IPV and found an analysis of this alongside self-determination theory, as talked about in lectures, I feel like this will be good at linking theoretical concepts to your book chapter; "Petit, W. E., Knee, C. R., & Rodriguez, L. M. (2017). Self-determination theory and intimate partner violence: An APIM model of need fulfillment and IPV. Motivation Science, 3(2), 119-132. doi:10.1037/mot0000054" - It was also published in 2017! so it's good from a modern perspective, hope this helps! --U3144362 (discuss • contribs) 04:22, 30 August 2017 (UTC) u3144362 2:22PM

Hi Alya, great start on the chapter it's coming along very well! It might be a good idea to include some ABS statistics on domestic violence to indicate it's prevalence in Australia, I did a quick search and located this which may be helpful http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/mf/4510.0 Kind regards, Morgan --MorganSlater (discuss • contribs) 23:41, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

Theoretical frameworks
Hi again u3133258 Just having another read of your chapter and wondering if it would be simpler to narrow it to physical IPV perpetration? The motives are somewhat different for each type and there's plenty about physical to fill your chapter! Something to consider anyway.

Also, I noticed in your feedback it mentioned thinking about an integrative model. There are a couple of multi-factor theories - one is Dutton's (1995) nested ecological framework theory, which looks at the interaction of risk factors at 4 social levels. Here's a meta-analysis on its usefulness: Stith, S. M., Smith, D. B., Penn, C. E., Ward, D. B., & Tritt, D. (2004). Intimate partner physical abuse perpetration and victimization risk factors: A meta-analytic review. Aggression and Violent Behavior, 10, 65-98. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avb.2003.09.001

Another more recent one that is attracting research is Finkel's I3 (I-cubed) theory - it's a general meta-theory of behaviour that's been successfully applied to IPV perpetration. It led to the development of perfect storm theory (love this name!) which suggests that the likelihood and intensity of a behaviour are highest when instigation and impellance are strong and inhibition is weak (they are the three factors of the I3 model). Check out this review: Birkley, E. L., & Eckhardt, C. I. (2015). Anger, hostility, internalizing negative emotions, and intimate partner violence perpetration: A meta-analytic review. Clinical Psychology Review, 37, 40-56. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpr.2015.01.002

You might fund these two reviews helpful for critical summaries of the more traditional appproaches: Ali, P. A., & Naylor, P. B. (2013). Intimate partner violence: A narrative review of the feminist, social and ecological explanations for its causation. Aggression and Violent Behavior, 18, 611-619. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avb.2013.07.009 Ali, P. A., & Naylor, P. B. (2013). Intimate partner violence: A narrative review of the biological and psychological explanations for its causation. Aggression and Violent Behavior, 18, 373-382. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avb.2013.01.003

All the best --u3122707 (discuss • contribs) 10:34, 15 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for your feedback! I've decided to focus mostly on physical as well as sexual types of violence. I'll definitely have a look at these articles once I'm up to the treatment. Thanks for providing some starter references! --U3133258 (discuss • contribs) 08:37, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks James for that clarification! --U3133258 (discuss • contribs) 11:24, 3 September 2017 (UTC) 9:24PM

Hi Some of your sentences are a little long which make them hard to read and to focus on the actual content of the sentence. For example, the first sentence in the overview when you are explaining IPV is really long, so you should think about breaking it up into two sentences. The information on demographics is really good, but I think you should think about talking about the other demographics you mentioned if you have the word limit as i think they would be interesting. The rest of what you want to talk about seems important to your topic and you seem to know what you need to do. I would just add that you could maybe talk about the treatment options for the victims and maybe even the perpetrators as I think that is important and could possibly link into prevention strategies. I hope this helps. --U3115549 (discuss • contribs) 03:23, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

Areas for Improvement
Hi! I find your chosen topic for the book chapter to be very interesting, as well as potentially useful for a range of people and a great jumpstarter for further study :) After reading through your chapter I have come up with a few ideas that may help you improve and grow your chapter (obviously it is before the due date so I don't know what you have in store haha!)

The first suggestion I would like to make is the implementation of case studies throughout your chapter. You've used one when discussing the differences of gender and I found that really helpful and eye catching! I think it would be even more helpful when you talk about the differences of types of violence (physical or sexual), as sometimes they can overlap or be perceived as being very similar.

Another suggestion I will make is maybe putting a disclaimer early on in the chapter, to warn for potentially emotionally charged content. I really like how in your "see also" section you have included links to domestic abuse hotlines and information pages, it shows how well you have thought about the impact of your topic.

Hope this helps!!

Hello! Just wanted to say great coverage of theories throughout your book chapter, you integrated all parts of your question well. Unfortunately i cannot provide much constructive criticism due to the delayed feedback. However for your multimedia i would suggest focusing on one theory as much as possible and doing that in depth. u3141330 (User: U3141330} 22:20 3rd September 2017G(discuss)contribs)
