TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Intimate partner violence, minority stress, and sexual risk-taking among U.S. MSM JO - Journal of homosexuality A1 - Finneran, Catherine A1 - Stephenson, Rob SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - Abstract This paper examines the prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) among a national sample of internet-recruited U.S. MSM (n = 1,575), and examines associations between reporting of IPV, minority stress, and sexual risk-taking. Five outcomes are examined: experiences of physical and sexual violence, perpetration of physical and sexual violence, and unprotected anal intercourse (UAI) at last sexual encounter. MSM who reported experiencing more homophobic discrimination and internalized homophobia were more likely to report experiences of IPV. The results point to the need for prevention messages to address the external and internal stressors that influence both violence and sexual risk among MSM.
