Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test the efficacy of Fathers for Change (F4C) compared to standard Batterer Intervention for fathers with a history of Intimate Partner Violence. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Is F4C more efficacious than standard BIP in reducing family violence and child mental health impairment? 2. What are the trajectories of therapeutic change targets across interventions? 3. Does father's emotion regulation and reflective functioning mediate the relationship between the two interventions and child-related outcomes? Participants will be randomized to either Fathers for Change on Batterer Intervention.
The purpose of the study will be to determine how participation in Family-Centered Care (FCC) compared to Child-centered care (CCC) will affect caregiver engagement in IPV-based community services, caregiver perceptions of empowerment and survivor-defined practice, and clinical outcomes for children exposed to IPV.
Document evidence, via cluster randomized controlled trial, of the effectiveness of the ARCHES intervention, a brief, clinic-based counselling intervention demonstrated to reduce intimate partner violence and reproductive coercion and promote women's reproductive health, as scaled in government health facilities in Kenya, to (1) decrease unintended pregnancy, (2) increase family planning uptake and use/continuation, (3) decrease experiences of reproductive coercion and intimate partner violence of women and girls aged 15 to 49 years seeking family planning services, and, to (4) improve quality of care, (5) increase gender equitable attitudes, and, (6) increase self-efficacy to provide comprehensive family planning counseling among providers trained in ARCHES.
This study will develop and pilot test a couples-based intervention to help adolescent girls and young women living with HIV (WLHIV (15-24 years) living in Uganda access HIV care and improve the outcomes of their HIV treatment by targeting male partner alcohol use to reduce IPV risk.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to test an intervention consisting of a combination of behavioral couples therapy and motivational interviewing to improve communication and reduce conflicts between couples and decrease harmful drinking among spouses in urban primary health centers, South India. The intervention will be delivered by nurses in primary health centers who will be supervised by a clinical psychologist. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Do the wives of the couples in the intervention report less intimate partner violence (IPV) after 12 months, compared to wives in couples in a control group? - Do the husbands of the couples in the intervention show less alcohol consumption after 12 months, compared to husbands in couples in a control group? Husbands will participate in Motivational Interview (MI) sessions targeted at reducing their alcohol use. Husband and wife will participate in Behavioral Couples Therapy (BCT) targeted at improving their marital relationship. These intervention participants will be compared to a control group who will receive only referral information for intimate partner violence and an educational session and referral for alcohol use disorder. All participants will participate in quantitative interviews at baseline, and every three months thereafter, for a period of one year. In-depth qualitative interviews will be done with a subgroup of couples to try to understand how the intervention led to the observed outcomes.
A significant proportion of women in Ethiopia suffer from violence by their intimate partner during pregnancy(IPVp), which has adverse maternal and newborn outcomes. Intervention addressing their intimate partners are not well-studied, particularly in Ethiopian setting. The investigators use a cluster randomized control study to evaluate the effectiveness of Couple-Based Violence Prevention Education(CBVPE). CBVPE is an intervention aimed to improve experience of violence during pregnancy, male partners knowledge, attitudes and controlling behavior towards intimate partner violacein this study kebeles found under each districts will be used as clusters. Sixteen clusters will be randomly assigned into one of two arms, each comprised of 216 couples. A total of 864 participants (432 pregnant women and 432 their male partners will be recruited for the study. women in the control group will receive the usual care provided by Health Extension Workers(HEWs), which is routine care. The intervention arm, wife and husband will be exposed to CBVPE that explores maternal health, intimate partner violence, adverse effects of violence during pregnancy, triggers of IPV, managing triggers of IPV, problem solving skills and health relationship. Our hypothesis is that CBVPE is superior to routine care in reducing and /or controlling intimate partner violence during pregnancy in HadiyaZone, Southwest Ethiopia. Structured interviewer administered questionnaire will be used to collect data at base-line and end-line.
The purpose of this study is to adapt, implement and evaluate a trauma and violence informed care intervention designed for Black women in middle Tennessee.
The present study was a quasi-experiment study. College students were recruited and divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. There were roughly 180-210 participants in each group, which totaled 360-420 people in all. The measurements of Dating Violence Myths and Dating Violence Bystander Help-giving Intention Questionnaire were implemented with a pre-, post-test, and 2-month follow-up design to analyze the immediate and continued educational effects. The investigators also invite 10 -30 participants to participate in online anonymous group interviews to collect qualitative data. The investigators expect dating violence education programs can improve college students' dating violence myths and dating violence bystander help-giving intention and behavior. The dating violence education program on the e-learning platform can be widely used in other colleges to build up safe dating relationships and friendly campuses.
The current project aims to develop, implement and assess the effectiveness of an intervention program for perpetrators of intimate partner violence (both volunteers and court-mandated) that incorporates Motivational Interviewing techniques (MIT) as well as cognitive-behavioral and psychoeducational strategies implemented in a community setting. The intervention focuses on ending violence against the intimate partner and promoting the batterer's personal and social skills. The study uses pre- and post-treatment measures, with an experimental group (intervention) and two control groups (a group without intervention and a group without MIT). Data were collected at pre-test, post-test, and follow-up.
The proposed project addresses intimate partner violence (IPV) against pregnant women, which is a serious social and health issue. Pregnant women represent a particularly vulnerable population of IPV survivors in China, who have been largely underserved. There have been no interventions developed in China to prevent maternal IPV and its effects on maternal and infant health. The proposed project is the first structured IPV intervention integrated into prenatal care in China, which may have the potential to be translated into more prenatal clinics in China to prevent violence against pregnant women and improve maternal and infant health.
