Psychological intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration is not limited to heterosexual relationships and can affect all genders and sexual orientations, including lesbians and bisexual women (LB) both in Denmark and Turkey. Internalized heterosexism might be one of the factors increasing the risk of LB’s use of psychological IPV perpetration. However, it is still unclear how being LB in Turkey and Denmark interact in the internalized heterosexism and psychological IPV perpetration relationship. The current study, therefore, presents an investigation of (a) the prevalence of sexual orientation (LB) and country (Denmark and Turkey) differences in perpetrating psychological IPV and (b) the moderating roles of sexual orientation and country on the association between internalized heterosexism and psychological IPV perpetration. A sample of 449 LB from Denmark and Turkey completed the Lesbian Internalized Homophobia Scale and the Multidimensional Measure of Emotional Abuse Scale. The results of chi-square analyses indicated that LB from Turkey and bisexual women from both countries reported significantly higher psychological IPV perpetration. The results of moderation analyses revealed that country had direct effects on the use of psychological IPV perpetration. No moderation effects were found for both sexual orientation and country in three of the four types of psychological IPV perpetration. These findings suggest that LB are not an exception to the perpetration of IPV. Furthermore, the findings were discussed from the perspectives of intersectionality and minority stress.

心理亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 实施不限于异性恋关系，并可能影响所有性别和性取向，包括丹麦和土耳其的女同性恋者和双性恋女性 (LB)。内化的异性恋可能是增加 LB 使用心理 IPV 犯罪风险的因素之一。然而，目前尚不清楚土耳其和丹麦的 LB 是如何在内化的异性恋和心理 IPV 实施关系中相互作用的。因此，目前的研究对（a）性取向（LB）的流行率和国家（丹麦和土耳其）在实施心理 IPV 方面的差异以及（b）性取向和国家对内化之间关联的调节作用进行了调查。异性恋和心理 IPV 犯罪。来自丹麦和土耳其的 449 磅样本完成了女同性恋内化恐同量表和情绪虐待量表的多维测量。卡方分析的结果表明，来自土耳其的 LB 和来自两国的双性恋女性报告的心理 IPV 犯罪显着更高。适度分析的结果表明，国家对心理 IPV 犯罪的使用有直接影响。在四种类型的心理 IPV 犯罪中的三种中，没有发现性取向和国家的缓和效应。这些发现表明，LB 并不是实施 IPV 的例外。此外，从交叉性和少数群体压力的角度讨论了这些发现。
