TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Contributions of demand/withdraw processes and alcohol consumption on emotional flooding in distressed violent versus distressed non-violent couples JO - Journal of family violence A1 - Biesen, Judith N.

SP - 869 EP - 882 VL - 38 IS - 5 N2 - Although alcohol-related intimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious public health problem, the mechanisms underlying this association are poorly understood. For instance, prior research has shown differences in distressed violent (DV) and distressed nonviolent (DNV) couples' demand/withdraw communication and the extent to which they become emotionally flooded (i.e., physiologically aroused) in response to conflict. Additionally, alcohol use is associated with increased demand/withdraw communication, IPV, and emotional flooding. Therefore, the present study sought to clarify the association between demand/withdraw communication and emotional flooding among relationally couples who use alcohol and who do and do not experience IPV.
