Abstract
This study aims to classify perpetrators based on these behaviors, thereby elucidating the theoretical understanding and the relationship between these two concepts. A latent class analysis (LCA) was conducted on 170 stalking cases collected from 18 police agencies nationwide. The analysis identified four distinct perpetrator types: 'Aggressive Control Type,' 'Indirect Threat Type,' 'Exploitative Approacher Type,' and 'Approacher Type.' The findings indicate a potential correlation between the types and levels of coercive control and the patterns of stalking behavior, providing insights into the intersection of stalking and coercive control. Through this, the study facilitates the theoretical advancement of these concepts and provides substantive insights for improving risk assessment and victim protection.
