Abstract

How does the public perceive physical and psychological abuse in intimate relationships for LGBTQ+ couples? I predict physical abuse by male perpetrators in a same-sex relationship will be considered the most harmful. Higher levels of victim blaming, sexism, and homophobia will reflect lower perceptions of severity of abuse.
