Abstract The focus of this essay is on understanding the development and maintenance of patterns of violent behavior for the purpose of identifying points of prevention and intervention. Close attention is paid to using person-centered language that does not conflate exhibiting violent behaviors with being a violent person. There is a meaningful perceptual difference between discussing the behaviors of a violent person versus discussing a person who engaged in violent behaviors: the former is more likely to be associated with immutable characteristics of a person and the latter is more likely to be associated with attempts at understanding social and contextual causes of the behavior.

创伤与暴力代际传递的发展与生态视角

摘要 本文的重点是了解暴力行为模式的发展和维持，以确定预防和干预点。密切注意使用以人为本的语言，不要将表现出暴力行为与成为暴力者混为一谈。讨论暴力者的行为与讨论从事暴力行为的人之间存在有意义的感知差异：前者更可能与一个人的不变特征相关，后者更可能与尝试了解行为的社会和背景原因。
