To determine whether this view would extend to assessments of psychologically aggressive actions, two separate versions of a survey listing potentially psychologically abusive behaviors perpetrated by either a wife toward her husband or the identical actions perpetrated by a husband toward his wife were sent to a nationwide sampling of practicing psychologists. Results indicated that psychologists, irrespective of demographics, rated the husband\u2019s behavior as more likely to be psychologically abusive and more severe in nature than the wife\u2019s use of the same actions. Psychologists did not differentially rely on any of the three contextual factors (i.e., frequency\/duration, intent of the perpetrator, and perception of the recipient) to influence their determination that a behavior was \u201cpsychological abuse\u201d dependent upon whether the initiator of the psychological actions was the husband or the wife. Future research could assess more directly the rationale for the psychologists\u2019 differing views of male versus female behavior. In addition, more normative information is needed to inform mental health professionals as to the prevalence and severity of psychologically aggressive actions in the general population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1891\/vivi.19.4.435.64165","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,5,3]],"date-time":"2005-05-03T11:01:55Z","timestamp":1115118115000},"page":"435-452","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":38,"title":["Psychologists\u2019 Judgments of Psychologically Aggressive Actions When Perpetrated by a Husband Versus a Wife"],"prefix":"10.1891","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Diane R.","family":"Follingstad","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dana D.","family":"DeHart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric P.","family":"Green","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"793","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1_125","unstructured":"Amabile, T. & Hastorf, A.
