Aggression Begets Aggression: Psychological Dating Aggression Perpetration in Young Adults From the Perspective of Intergenerational Transmission of Violence
(Springer, 2021) Toplu-Demirtaş, Ezgi; Hatipoğlu-Sümer, Zeynep
The aim of this study was threefold: (1) to evaluate the factorial validity of the Psychological Aggression (PA) subscale of the Conflict Tactics Scales–Adult Recall version (CTS2-CA), (2) to investigate the prevalence of and gender differences in psychological dating aggression perpetration (PDAP; restrictive engulfment, denigration, hostile withdrawal, and dominance/intimidation), and (3) to explore a proposed path from witnessing interparental psychological aggression perpetration to PDAP via acceptance of psychological aggression as a mediator and gender as a moderator of the mediation. For the first purpose, college students (N = 275) completed father to mother and mother to father forms of the PA subscale of the CTS2-CA. Exploratory factor analyses yielded a single-factor solution for the father to mother (55.86% of the variance) and mother to father (49.12% of the variance) forms. For the second and third purposes, a separate sample of 1015 dating college students (69.6% women) completed the Multidimensional Measure of Emotional Abuse and Abuse subscale of the Intimate Partner Violence Attitude Scale-Revised, along with the PA subscale of the CTS2-CA. Gender differences emerged in the prevalence of restrictive engulfment (85.8% for women and 80.3% for men) and hostile withdrawal (96.3% for women and 91.1% for men). Moderated-mediation analyses revealed that women college students who witnessed more mother to father psychological aggression perpetration tended to hold more accepting attitudes towards psychological aggression and, in turn, perpetrated more psychological aggression against their partners. Common assumptions that boys are more likely to imitate fathers, whereas girls are more likely to imitate mothers and women [but not men] commit verbal aggression may together explain our findings from the perspective of the intergenerational transmission of violence hypothesis. For future research, we suggest investigating the proposed model with the experience of psychological aggression from the parents to the child, which may provide further insights.

Gender Differences, Infidelity, Dyadic Trust, and Jealousy Among Married Turkish Individuals
(Springer, 2016) Çetinkaya Yıldız, Evrim; Kemer, Gülşah; Bulgan, Gökçe
In the present study, relationships among gender,emotional response to partner’s imagined infidelity (emotionaland sexual infidelity), and dyadic trust (low and high levels oftrust) were investigated as functions of married Turkish individuals’jealousy types (cognitive, emotional, and behavioral).Five hundred thirty seven (276 women and 261 men) marriedindividuals living in urban areas in Turkey participated in thestudy. Results of the Multivariate Analysis of Variance(MANOVA) revealed significant main effects for gender, infidelitytypes, and dyadic trust. Particularly, married Turkish men in this study were found to be more emotionally jealousthan women. Participants who responded to sexual infidelityas more upsetting had higher levels of emotional jealousywhen compared to the participants who found emotional infidelitymore upsetting. Moreover, participants with low dyadictrust for their partners were found to be high in their cognitivejealousy and behavioral jealousy reactions. Results arediscussed in details with implications for future research andsuggestions for mental health practitioners.

The Influence of Internalized Heterosexism on Life Satisfaction: Comparing Sexual Minority Women in Belgium and Turkey
(Springer, 2021) Toplu-Demirtaş, Ezgi; Moe, Jeffry; Ummak, Esra; Pope, Amber L.
To date, the majority of research studying lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) health has been conducted in Westernized, predominantly individualistic countries. Building on minority stress theory and models of LGBTQ health, we explored how sexual orientation and nationality moderated the association between internalized heterosexism and life satisfaction for lesbian and bisexual (LB) women living in two countries (Turkey and Belgium) with contrasting social contexts. The results of two-way MANOVA, in a sample of 339 Turkish and 220 Belgian LB women, revealed main effects but no interaction effects. LB women in Belgium reported less internalized heterosexism and more life satisfaction than LB women in Turkey. The results of moderation analyses indicated no moderation effect, however internalized heterosexism and country emerged as the best predictors of life satisfaction. Findings were interpreted with a focus on how culture-specific aspects contribute to life satisfaction among LB women. Our findings suggest mental health professionals working with LB women need to tailor therapeutic interventions to reflect the social context connected to their patients’ nationality, in order to effectively address internalized heterosexism, improve life satisfaction, and promote self- and social advocacy. Cultural values, such as adherence to collectivistic or individualistic norms, should be included as variables in future research examining determinants of LGBTQ health.
