Which of the following is NOT a recognized type of violence categorized in family dynamics?

Sibling violence is not typically recognized as a distinct category of violence within family dynamics in the same way as the other options listed. The DSM-5-TR and related literature often emphasize forms of violence that have clear patterns of power dynamics or relational structures, such as child psychological abuse, spouse or partner neglect, and adult abuse by nonspouse or nonpartner. These categories are based on established psychological frameworks that focus on the roles of authority, dependency, and relational dynamics.

While sibling interactions can certainly involve conflict or aggression, they do not consistently fit the formal categories of recognized abuse that are established within family systems in the same manner as the other listed types. The distinction rests largely on the social and power dynamics inherent in these relationships, where parent-child and partner relationships carry recognized frameworks of abuse due to the inherent imbalances in these roles.
