The term cycle of violence refers to repeated and dangerous acts of violence as a cyclical pattern,〔(''The cycle of violence.'' ) Domestic Violence and Abuse, Signs of Abuse and Abusive Relationships. HELPGUIDE.org. Retrieved November 21, 2011.〕 associated with high emotions and doctrines of retribution or revenge. The pattern, or cycle, repeats and can happen many times during a relationship.〔 Each phase may last a different length of time, and over time the level of violence may increase. It often refers to violent behavior learned as a child, and then repeated as an adult, therefore continuing on in a perceived cycle.〔Fagan, A. A. (2005). The Relationship Between Adolescent Physical Abuse and Criminal Offending: Support for an Enduring and Generalized Cycle of Violence. ''Journal of Family Violence.'' 20(5):279-290.〕 ==Within a relationship== A cycle of abuse generally follows the following pattern:〔 * Abuse – The abuser initiates aggressive, verbal or physical abuse, designed to control and oppress the victim. * Guilt – The abuser feels guilty for inflicting abusive behavior, primarily out of a concern of being found guilty of abuse rather than feelings of sympathy for the victim. * Excuses – Rationalization of the behavior, including blame and excuses. * "Normal" behavior – The abuser regains personal control, creates a peaceful phase in an attempt to make the victim feel in the relationship. * Fantasy and planning – thinking of what the victim has done wrong how he or she will be punished and developing a plan to realize the fantasy. * Set-up – the plan is "put in motion." A cyclical nature of domestic violence is most prevalent in intimate terrorism (IT), which involve a pattern of ongoing control using emotional, physical and other forms of domestic violence and is what generally leads victims, who are most often women, to women's shelters. It is what was traditionally the definition of domestic violence and is generally illustrated with the "Power and Control Wheel"〔(''Power and Control Wheel,'' ) National Center on Domestic and Sexual Violence. Retrieved November 20, 2011.〕 to illustrate the different and inter-related forms of abuse. Intimate terrorism is different from situational couple violence, which are isolated incidents of varying degrees of intensity.〔(''A Sociologist’s Perspective on Domestic Violence,'' ) ''A Conversation with Michael Johnson, Ph.D.'' Theodora Ooms, interviewer following May 2006 conference. Center for Law and Social Policty (CLASP). Pages 2-4.
