significant main effect for ethnicity was found on past
partners' behavior, £(4,1618) = 5.58, £ < .001, with
differences on threats, F(2,809)= 8.98, £ < .001, and acts,
F(2,809)= 4.15, p. < .02. Post hoc Tukey's Honestly
Significant Differences procedures revealed Euro-American
women reported more threats (M = 2.15) and acts (M = 1.40)
in past relationships than Mexican American (M = 1.61, and
1.08, respectively) or African American women (M = 1.64, and
1.12, respectively).
Although the MANOVA by violence group was not
significant, Hypothesis 4 dictated that univariate results
be examined. There were significant main effects on past
partners' threats F(2,809) = 4.32, £ < .02, and acts
F(2,809) = 3.62, ^ < .03. According to Tukey's Honestly
Significant Differences procedures, women in the severe
violence group had sustained significantly more threats (M =
2.05) and acts (M = 1.40) by a past partner than had women
who currently sustained no (M = 1.64, and 1.09,
respectively) or moderate (M = 1.72, and 1.13, respectively)
violence; To determine whether these results were
meaningful, co2 was calculated for past partners' threats
(.01) and acts (.01) indicating that only 1% of the
variation in violence sustained in the current relationship
was accounted for by past violence sustained.
