Reciprocal partner violence (RPV), also known as bi-directional partner violence, involves intimate partner violence (IPV) in which each person in the relationship is both a perpetrator and victim of IPV. Research shows a high proportion of IPV is reciprocal. This is not about provocation in the moment. Rather this a long term trend in which each partner initiates IPV against the other, often at different times.
Key findings in relation to RPV include:[1]
- One of the key indicators of whether a woman will be a victim of IPV is whether she is a perpetrator of IPV.
- Women tend to be violent more often in a reciprocally violent relationship over one where they are the only violent partner.
- Women are more likely to be injured as a result of RPV.
It follows from the last finding that women could reduce their chances of being a victim of IPV by avoiding being a perpetrator.
