The aim of this study was to systematically summarize the worldwide evidence on the prevalence of obstetric violence during childbirth, assess the quality of studies, and explain differences in prevalence rates between studies. To access the studies, the English database of the PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and the Cochrane Central Registry were searched for the period between January 2012 and September 2023. Preferential Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed in reporting the research. Thirty-five studies involving 75,859 women were included in the meta-analysis after searching through different databases. We constructed a prevalence analysis of obstetric violence during labor using a random effects model. The prevalence of obstetric violence during labor ranged from 5.6 % to 91.7 %, while the pooled prevalence rate of obstetric violence during labor was 50.8 % (95 % CI: 44.9–56.7 %). By region, prevalence was highest in Africa 64.7 % (95 % CI: 53.9–74.2 %), followed by the Eastern Mediterranean 50.9 % (95 % CI: 41.5–60.2 %), while the lowest was in the Americas at 33.2 % (95 % CI: 26.2–40.9 %). Thus, women are commonly exposed to obstetric violence during childbirth although there are geographical variations in its prevalence. Given the sensitive nature and importance of pregnancy, screening for violence during pregnancy is necessary to improve maternal and child health. This alarming rate of obstetric violence calls for the adoption of upstream policies and interventions to reduce it.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51360,"journal":{"name":"Aggression and Violent Behavior","volume":"83 ","pages":"Article 102067"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144321471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comparing these two effect sizes, the strength of association was stronger for cyberbullying perpetration and marijuana use than for traditional bullying perpetration.

Only studies using latent class or latent profile analyses on dating violence victimization and/or perpetration (psychological, physical, and/or sexual) with at least two forms of violence were included. Drawn from 22 studies, findings highlight four typical classes of dating violence: a little or no involvement class (the largest class), a psychological violence class (typically the second largest class), a psychological and physical violence class and a multiple forms of violence class. Results on sex or gender differences are mixed. Similar numbers of classes were generally identified for boys and girls, although two studies found a greater number of classes for girls. Variations in the operationalization of dating violence limit result comparability.

These developments blur the boundaries between forms of violence traditionally treated in silos of public and private (domestic) violence. However, while IPA has been observed as present in the backgrounds of a range of violent offenders, including extremists, it is important for the risk assessment and management of both to understand if and how IPA is <em>relevant</em> to violent extre risk. To unpack this relationship, we apply psychometric network analysis to survey responses from a sample of men from the UK general population. A series of network graphs visualise how IPA perpetration, attitudes towards violence against women, attitudes towards violence, exposure to violent extremism, and violent extremist attitudes and intentions relate to one another. Our findings suggest that IPA may be an observable (although admittedly crude) <em>indicator</em> of the types of attitudes which underpin both types of violence, and that exposure to violent extremism may, in part, explain the blurring of boundaries increasingly observed in practice. We introduce a number of protective factors into the models to visualise how they might mitigate risk, to inform the design and delivery of risk management in this space.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51360,"journal":{"name":"Aggression and Violent Behavior","volume":"82 ","pages":"Article 102055"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144138010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article draws on findings from a scoping review that examined the nature and extent of research conducted with young people exploring their attitudes towards and perceptions of TFCC. Sixteen articles met the inclusion criteria. Results from the review revealed that young people generally perceive TFCC behaviours as constituting DVA. However, attitudes vary based on the type of behaviour involved. Importantly, some young people identify contextual factors that distinguish non-abusive and abusive dynamics in intimate relationships. Inconsistent methodological approaches were found across studies, especially in quantitative research exploring a limited number of TFCC behaviours.
