In study one, 202 participants provided judgements of vignettes depicting a scenario of DVA, which differed as a function of victim sex and whether a ‘justification’ (i.e., infidelity) for DVA was present. After controlling for participant age, sex, and own victimisation, vignettes featuring male victims and victim infidelity were viewed more harshly. In study two, comparative deductive thematic analysis was used to explore qualitative perceptions of male DVA victims between men who did and did not identify as being a victim of DVA.

Furthermore, military-affiliated LEOs were at a greater risk (approximately 35%) of using any form of force, but Army-affiliated LEOs were at nearly twice the risk of using all categories of force.
