Holtzworth-Munroe and Stuart typology

Three-category IPV perpetrator taxonomy (family-only, dysphoric-borderline, generally violent-antisocial) based on violence severity, psychopathology, and criminal versatility (Psychological Bulletin, 1994). Family-only is the largest community subtype; generally violent-antisocial carries the highest homicide risk.
