The Role of Substance Use in Male-to-Female Physical and Sexual Violence

A Brief Review and Recommendations for Future Research

Maria Testa

University at Buffalo

Literature addressing the relationship between substance use and physical and sexual violence against women is reviewed briefly. There is substantial evidence of a relationship between men’s substance use and perpetration of physical violence, some evidence of a relationship between women’s substance use and experiences of sexual aggression, but weak evidence that men’s substance use contributes to sexual aggression or that women’s substance use contributes to their physical victimization. Understanding the mechanisms underlying the relationship between substance use and violence relationship will be facilitated by narrowing the scope of research questions to identify for whom there is a relationship and under what circumstances.

Key Words: alcohol drinking patterns • drugs • family violence • victimization • sexual abuse
