Résumé :
The relationships between women's alcohol use and their violent victimization may be bidirectional: Women's alcohol use may lead to increased vulnerability for violent victimization, and women's violent victimization may lead to increased use of alcohol. Not all women who drink, however, will be victimized, and not all women who have been victimized will initiate or increase alcohol use. Thus, relationships between victimization and alcohol use not only may be bidirectional, they also may increase or decrease in strength as a result of intervening variables. Moreover, connections between victimizadon and alcohol use may differ among different groups of women, and even when the temporal ordering of events suggests that some causal connection may exist between victimization and alcohol use, the linkage may prove to be spurious. Research is far from conclusive about many aspects of these relationships, although there is increasing attention to them.
This chapter explores both directions of the association between women's alcohol use and women's violent victimization. [Extract]
