Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research suggests that most men who kill their wives or girlfriends have previously kept their victims in abusive relations. This often involves controlling behavior, intimidation, and isolation from family and friends. These patterns of abuse can escalate to physical violence and ultimately homicide.

Note: None of the other options (A, C, D) accurately reflect the findings of research on intimate partner homicide. While some men may not have previously shown violent tendencies, this is not consistent across cases. Similarly, economic problems and psychological normalcy are not consistently linked to intimate partner homicide.
