A number of adult and childhood risk factors are associated with the increased likelihood of intimate partner violence (IPV) victimization. Witnessing interparental violence and experiencing abuse as a child are both linked to increased likelihood of experiencing IPV as an adult.

Additionally, relationship factors, including length of IPV relationships, intermittent relationship reinforcement, and having children not related to the perpetrator, are linked to an increased severity of abuse (McFarlane, Pennings, Symes, Maddoux, & Paulson, 2014; Miner, Shackelford, Block, Starratt, & Weekes-shackelford, 2012; Clements, Oxtoby, & Handsel, 2005).
