Psychological and behavioural typologies of men who assault their female partnersBodnarchuk, Mark Anton 11 1900 (has links)
Since the 1970s, there have been numerous studies of the personality disorders, and
psychological and behavioural characteristics of men who assault their female partners. The goal
of these studies has been to describe and better understand potential underlying processes that
result in female partner assault. These studies have revealed that men who assault their female
partners are not a homogeneous group. They appear to be comprised of subgroups without
personality disorders, those with different personality disorders, and differ on psychological and
behavioural characteristics.
The literature most strongly supports the theoretical typology o f Holtzworth-Munroe and
Stuart (1994), yet this theoretical typology requires further validation research. This thesis was
an empirical test of this typology. The typology was tested by collecting quantitative data on
personality disorders and psychological and behavioural characteristics in a large sample of men
who assault their female partners, and used statistical procedures to test whether the hypothesized
subgroups existed in the sample. The statistical procedure used to test the presence of subgroups
was cluster analysis, which can derive groups of individuals within a sample. The differences
between possible subgroups identified in the cluster analysis were further tested using standard
statistical procedures (discriminant function analysis and analysis of variance). The results of
these procedures were compared to the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart (1994) theoretical
typology and previous research.
The findings of the current study failed to support the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart
(1994) theoretical typology. Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart (1994) hypothesized the population
of spousal assaulters was comprised of the family-only (50%), the dysphoric-borderline (25%),
and the generally violent-antisocial (25%) spousal assaulter. The current study found three
groups of spousal assaulters: Low-Level Antisocial (66%), Moderate Pathological (21%), and
Severe Pathological (13%). These three groups showed consistent increases across groups in the
average number and percentages of personality disorders from the Low Level Antisocial (LLA)
to the Moderate Pathological (MP) and Severe Pathological (SP) groups. The increases in the
average number and percentages of personality disorders were paralleled by significant increases
from the L L A to the M P and SP group in five o f the eight external variables Holtzworth-Munroe
and Stuart (1994) hypothesized spousal assaulters vary upon.
The reasons for failure to support the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart (1994) typology
were differences between the current study and the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart (1994)
typology on (a) personality disorder types, (b) psychological and behavioural variables, and (c)
psychopathology. The current study findings were similar to some previous and more current
research findings of (a) some groups of generalized psychopathology, (b) some groups that
include a combination o f antisocial and borderline personality disorders, (c) some groups that
include narcissistic personality disorder, and (d) some groups that are best described as inbetween
the Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart (1994) family-only and generally violent-antisocial
groups.
Some of the differences between the current study findings and previous typology
research appear to be related to a focus in research on attempting to validate the Holtzworth-
Munroe and Stuart (1994) typology. Research prior and subsequent to the development of their
model had found the presence of other personality disorders (e.g., narcissistic), yet these findings
have not been incorporated into typology models. This is prudent, given that there has not been a
great deal o f research on typologies o f men who assault their female partners. Some authors have
speculated that differences in typology study findings may be related to differences in study
samples (e.g., Gortner, Gollan, & Jacobson, 1997). Due to this possibility, numerous
comparisons were made between the current study and previous research on study sample
characteristics.
Methodological and interpretive issues were reviewed. Although the current study
included the highest proportion of First Nations research participants (24.2%) compared to
previous research, this group was not different than the rest of the research participants, with one
exception. Their higher average number of previous convictions may be related to racial bias in
the reporting of crime.
A number of future research directions were suggested. The most prominent
recommendation is for a large study including the range of samples (e.g., spousal assault
treatment and community recruited) that may clarify the differences in previous research and the
current study findings.

Situation du personnage masculin dans les romans d'Anne HébertGingras, Julie. January 1996 (has links)
The situation of the male characters in Anne Hebert's novels evolves, from Les Chambres de bois to L'Enfant charge de songes. The position of the male characters in relation to the female characters changes, as does their position in relation to physical and psychological space. The male characters gradually acquire greater liberty in the course of this evolution. Concretely, this means that the male characters free themselves, step by step, from the conflictual situation that determines their relations to the female characters and that they free themselves, at the same time, from a restrictive physical and psychological space. / We will demonstrate that the evolution in the male characters' position in relation to the female characters and to space is realized simultaneously. When a significant change occurs in the male-female relation, it is accompanied by a similar change in the relation of the male characters to physical and psychological space. Starting from a doubly conflictual position (with relation to the female characters and to physical and psychological space), the male characters evolve, on both counts, towards what we call a harmonious state. This evolution is not, of course, linear; the male characters sometimes seem to hesitate. But still, we cannot deny that they progress, from one novel to the other, towards freedom.

Men who march away: A screenplayMorrison, Bruce William January 2008 (has links)
Men Who March Away is a story about men and war, an ancient narrative recipe. In particular, two men who share some traits in common with their fellows but in other respects are unique. King and country mean little or nothing to them. They don’t fight in defence of the hearth-fire as popular myth would have us believe. The First World War just coincided with the prime years of their life and appeared to them as a refuge from the torments in their personal lives.
One of them, Richard Travis, is a taciturn, troubled loner, who assimilates easily into the Army and finds self-fulfilment on the battlefield. He wins New Zealand’s highest and most prestigious military medal, the Victoria Cross but is killed in action, before he knows of his achievement.
The other is the socially marginalised yet quintessential rough diamond, James Douglas Stark, Starkie. He enlists to escape the police and resists assimilation into the Army. However, he does his bit on numerous battlefields, saves Travis’ life but receives scant recognition.
Ending up in the same battalion, they’re forced into an uneasy alliance which makes them confront and alter their attitudes to each other and to their duty.

Problems and coping strategies of urban divorced men at the time of divorce and six months laterMitchell-Flynn, Carol L. January 1985 (has links)
This study was conducted to examine the problems and coping strategies of urban divorced men at the time of divorce (during the first month--Time 1) and six months later (Time 2). Both pre-determined coping strategies (formed as a result of previous research), and newly generated coping strategies for the target population were examined. Three independent variables-age, anxiety, and sex role orientation--were tested to ascertain their effect on degree of helpfulness of the coping strategies.Courthouse records were examined during a six-and-three-quarters-month time period in two counties in Indiana. The names of the men who had decrees granted during this time span were obtained. This resulted in 187 phone contacts in which the purpose of the study was explained and the research instruments briefly described. There were 164 men who volunteered to participate. They were sent a research packet consisting of a cover letter, a participant contact form, the instruments (a background questionnaire, Questionnaire II--a psychological adjustment scale, the Family Coping Inventory, the Maferr inventory of Masculine Values, and the Checklist of Problems and Concerns), and a self-addressed, stamped envelope. There were 123 men who returned the research packet at Time 1 and 84 at Time 2. Multivariate analysis and a correlated t-test were used to test the research hypotheses.FindingsSeven hypotheses were rejected at the .05 level. Significant differences were found:1. In the perceived helpfulness of pre-determined (and generated) coping strategies between older and younger men at Time 2.2. In the perceived helpfulness of pre-determined (and generated) coping strategies between higher and lower anxiety at Time 1.3. In the perceived helpfulness of pre-determined (and generated) coping strategies between higher and lower anxiety at Time 2.4. Between Time 1 and Time 2 means on the problem factors a. Between the means of Factor 1--Loneliness at Time 1 and Time 2.b. Between the means of Factor 5--Control and Competence at Time 1 and Time 2.Conclusions1. All divorced men do not fit the "self-confident swinging bachelor" stereotype. Problems related to social relationships seem to be a major cause of concern at both Time 1 and Time 2, as is loneliness. Loneliness decreases significantly, however, at Time 2.2. The results confirm the existence of stable problem factors over time.3. It appears that there are relatively stable coping strategies found across time and populations. Those found most often are concerned with: Maintaining Family Stability Establishing Independence Dating and Socializing with Friends Leisure ActivitiesContact with RelataivesDivorce Related ActivitiesSeeking Understanding Through Personal and Professional Relationships Expressing Self Community Involvement4. It would be beneficial to adopt a single coping strategy framework and impose this structure on subjects in future research studies rather than generate new sets of strategies. Degrees of helpfulness could be ascertained while providing a consistent foundation for comparison.5. Anxiety level seems to be the most important independent variable in this study in perceived degree of helpfulness. Age also plays a role.
