title = "Early-life risk for domestic violence perpetration: Implications for practice and policy",
abstract = "Research on risks and causes of domestic violence is hampered by a policy framework that not only does not fund but in some cases suppresses inquiry into those causes. This discussion, then, will be placed in the context of those policy frameworks that hamper and distort inquiry. This includes an overview of ideological, political, and historical issues that have shaped those frameworks. Related explanatory theories and theories of practice are summarized. The article will examine known early-life risk factors for those disorders and behaviors associated with domestic violence perpetration. Particular emphasis will be placed on maltreatment and attachment/bonding processes. Framed in broad perspectives of psychosocial theory, risk factors from related literature sources (e.g. general violence and criminality) will be included where risk profiles are substantially similar.",

note = "Funding Information: Despite more scientific views of domestic violence risk factors at the federal level by some agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC; 2017), the overall federal/state/agency policy apparatus remains locked into a rigid, ideological framing of presumed causes of domestic violence perpetration. As a result, research in the field has been somewhat isolated from research on violence and aggression in general. For example, in the rapidly evolving field of neurotransmitters and violence, an open date, keyword search of PsycINFO in April 2017 found 370 publications with the search terms neurotransmitters AND aggression (human) or neurotransmitters AND violence. There were only 2 publications with the search terms neurotransmitters AND domestic violence (one by this author). Unlike the relationship between other disorders and federal policy custodianship, which have a specific research focus (e.g., alcoholism and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism), domestic violence policy is primarily overseen by the Department of Justice, which provides almost no empirical research funding on domestic violence perpetration. The NIJ “Projects Funded” database shows no grants in the past 5 years made for the purpose of studying risk, etiology, or developmental factors in the perpetration of domestic violence (NIJ, 2016). Neither the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), nor the CDC, nor the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) made any RO1 grants (the major National Institutes of Health [NIH] grant mechanism for health research) primarily for the study of developmental risk for perpetration of domestic violence during the period 1994 to 2016 (NIH, 2017). Much more common across funding bodies and the academic literature is in a sense the reverse—the study of how exposure to domestic violence is a risk factor for numerous deleterious outcomes for children.
