Violent men tend to find aggression normal

Violent men tend to find aggression normal

Researchers at the University of Washington (USA) analyzed 124 men in a study for the treatment of domestic violence. Men who had committed violence against their partner in the last 90 days were asked to estimate the percentage of men they believed to have engaged in seven types of abuse: throwing something at the partner, pushing, shaking, physically assaulting, with a weapon, or force a partner to have sex against his will.

Aggressors believe that other men practice these acts commonly (two to three times above actual rates). For example, participants believe that about 28% of men have played something with intent to hurt a partner, but the actual rate in the United States is about 12%. Men also believe that about 24 percent of men have forced a partner to have sex, compared with the actual rate of 8 percent.

Researchers say they are not sure why these men exaggerate estimates, but it is those who engage in violent behavior are likely to justify it mentally by thinking that this is common. A practical example is to understand what goes on in the head of the attackers: it's like wearing a red shirt in a discreet environment.

If you think everybody is wearing a shirt like yours, then you do not feel dislocated using a also. Or if you wear a red shirt you can overestimate the number of people who are wearing red shirts. The findings of the study are useful for correcting misconceptions about domestic violence by offering a chance to change the behavior of men. If given factual information, it becomes more difficult for them to justify and blame their own behavior.
