Filter by:Witnessed violence is a form of child abuse with detrimental effects on child wellbeing and development, whose recognition relies on the assessment of their mother exposure to intimate partner violence (IPV). The aim of this cross-sectional study is to assess the frequency of witnessed violence in a population of children attending a pediatric emergency department (ED) in Italy, by searching for IPV in their mother, and to define the characteristics of the mother-child dyads.
The goal of this randomised controlled clinical trial is to test the Stepping Stones and Creating Futures Plus (SSCF+) intervention, in young (18-25 years) people living in urban informal settlements in Durban and rural communities in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the intervention acceptable and feasible - What is the potential effect size on key outcomes of intimate partner violence Participants will be randomised (1:1) to compare SSCF+ and a control arm to see if there are differences between the two on intimate partner violence.
Cash transfers have shown promise in preventing intimate partner violence, and in reducing recipients' stress levels. Cash transfers with behavioral or psychological interventions have shown limited effectiveness at reducing stress in some African countries. Little is known of the cost-effectiveness of interventions delivered alongside cash transfer programs. The MEWE economic evaluation sub-study (MEWE-EE) runs alongside MEWE, a three-arm cluster-randomized controlled trial in Sindh, Pakistan. MEWE-EE will assess the costs and cost-effectiveness of delivering a cash-transfer program (BISP-CT) combined with a life-skills building curriculum (LSB curriculum), compared to the BISP-CT alone. The LSB curriculum is offered to either women who receive BISP-CT, or to women who receive BISP-CT and their husbands.
To pilot and evaluate the integration of first-line response to gender- based violence (GBV), particularly intimate partner violence (IPV), sexual violence and reproductive coercion, within family planning (FP) and antenatal care (ANC) services at public health facilities in Ebonyi and Sokoto states in Nigeria. GBV first-line response in the health setting includes screening , empowerment counseling, safety planning, and support to connect to additional services needed.
The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences and benefits of offering an online mindfulness program that integrates resiliency factors to women.
The Vedic Counselling is the whole person approach, system of total life style counselling based on 'Vedic Laws of right living, right actions, right relationship and right awareness'.Vedic Counselling was developed as trauma focused therapy for this study to treat female victims of domestic abuse.
This is a single-site, randomized, controlled trial. Investigators will evaluate feasibility of the Emergency Department Healthcare Education Assessment and Response for Teen Relationships (ED-HEART) intervention among adolescents age 14-19 years receiving care in the Children's Mercy emergency department.
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious social and public health issue. In the U.S., more than 1 in 3 women experience physical or sexual violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner during their lifetime. IPV has significant physical and mental health consequences such as injury, chronic pain, and depression. Chinese immigrants have been overlooked and underserved and represent an especially vulnerable group of IPV victims, as they are less likely to seek help through IPV service agencies, women's shelters, hospitals, or law enforcement. Effective IPV intervention programs that are culturally appropriate, accessible, and acceptable are essential to this underserved population. However, no studies have been conducted with abused Chinese immigrant women to help them deal with IPV and reduce mental health consequences. Therefore, the study adapted a structured IPV intervention from the Domestic Violence Enhanced Home Visitation Program (DOVE) as well as incorporate self-compassion and relaxation techniques for Chinese immigrant women experiencing IPV. The intervention is called Self-Compassion, Health, and Empowerment (SHE). The study will test the feasibility and acceptability of the SHE to reduce IPV and improve mental health well-being for abused Chinese immigrant women residing in the US.
The investigators will assess the need and feasibility of randomising a sufficiently large number of women exposed to IPV during pregnancy in a full-scale future randomised trial. To achieve this, the investigators will: 1. estimate rates of consent to randomization, and the rates of adherence and dropout following randomization (for the use in sample size estimation) 2. determine recruitment duration 3. examine the women's perception about the benefit of the intervention 4. determine the reasons for acceptability, non-adherence, and obstacles to recruitment, randomisation and consent through qualitative interviews
Intimate partner violence (IPV), including violence in teen dating relationships [teen dating violence (TDV)], is a common and a serious threat to adolescent health, safety, and well-being. TDV may include psychological/emotional abuse, sexual harassment or coercion, stalking (including cyberstalking), and physical or sexual violence. For many, the first experience of violence is in a dating or casual relationship with a partner or acquaintance during adolescence. Therefore, the objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of an adapted version of the myPlan app for adolescents (ages 15-17 years) to prevent and respond to TDV. myPlan is an app available for mobile download or by web browser that interactively assists users to assess the health and safety of user's intimate relationship, receive personalized strategies on how build healthier relationships, stay safe and healthy while navigating an unsafe relationship, and get connected to support and resources.
