Several studies have reported impairments in decoding emotional facial expressions in intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators. However, the mechanisms that underlie these impaired skills are not well known. Given this gap in the literature, we aimed to establish whether IPV perpetrators (n=18) differ in their emotion decoding process, attentional skills, and testosterone (T), cortisol (C) levels
