To this end, data were collected from 363 adult men and women aged 20-50 who had dating experience, and Mann-Whitney U tset, hierarchical logistic regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 27.0. The followings are summary of the result: First, there was a significant difference in the factors of ‘intimate partner violence(IPV)’ and ‘controlling behavior’ between those who had experienced stalking and those who had not. In other words, victims of stalking experienced more physical and sexual violence, and their partner's controlling and obsessive behavior. And there was a significant difference in the ‘personality characteristics of partners’ between those who had experienced stalking victimization and those who had not. In other words, the partner of a stalking victim showed more antisocial personality traits (callousness, manipulativeness, deceitfulness, irresponsibility, hostility, impulsivity, risk-taking), borderline personality traits (emotional lability, hostility, impulsivity, risk-taking), and narcissistic personality traits(attention seeking) than their non-stalking partners. Second, hierarchical logistic regression analysis showed that only the partner's obsessive behavior and impulsivity, callousness traits were a significant risk factors for stalking victimization. Finally, the implications of these results were discussed, and the limitations of this study and directions for future research were suggested.
