Filter by:Intimate partner violence (IPV) against women in the US is a serious public health problem and a human rights issue. Our research team has developed confidential screening tools using exam-room computer for intimate partner violence to be used in primary care.
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.
This research was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study with pretest posttest and repeated measurement in order to examine the Effect of Solution-Focused Approach on Attitudes to Violence Against Women in High School Students. The research sample consisted of 90 students (45 control, 45 experiment) who met the inclusion criteria of the research out of 1037 students studying at 5 high schools randomly selected from the central high schools affiliated to the Muş Provincial Directorate of National Education. Personal Information Form and Violence Against Women Attitude Scale (İSKEBE) were used to collect data. The Personal Information Form was filled in by the students themselves before the program. İSKEBE was filled before, after the program and at the follow-up 3 months later. 3 days were determined for the program for the students in the experimental group, and the program was applied for 60 minutes a day for 6 weeks, allowing the students to participate in the program on a suitable day. No intervention was made to the control group during the program. Before the program, the personal characteristics of the control and experimental group students were similar in terms of İSKEBE and subscale scores.
Intimate partner violence and addictions are two frequent problematics with many consequences on health. A link between intimate partner violence and addictions has been found in many studies. Being a drug user increases the risk to be a perpetrator and also a victim of intimate partner violence. So, it is legitimate to question ourselves about the prevalence of the victims and perpetrators of intimate partner violence among the patients consulting or being hospitalized for an addiction problem. We believe that this prevalence will be high among these patients. On the other hand, the general practitioners are in first line receiving victims and perpetrators of violence and patients with addiction problems. So it is important to know the profiles of these patients and their expectations from their general practitioners.
Community college students are an underserved and at-risk population in terms of their sexual and relationship health. This is a three-arm randomized control trial to evaluate the long-term efficacy of a web-based sexual and relationship health promotion program among U.S. community college students (expected N = 2010) and explore the mechanisms underlying the program efficacy.
We will recruit sexual and gender minority couples to complete 56 days of daily surveys in order to evaluate (1) the impact of COVID-19 stress and sexual and gender minority stress on heavy episodic drinking and intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration, and (2) a brief, mobile-phone delivered text messaging intervention to mitigate the effects of these stressors. This project has high potential to inform how pandemic stress contributes to etiological models of alcohol-related IPV perpetration in sexual and gender minority couples and inform a culturally-sensitive, low burden, and easy to disseminate intervention to mitigate these effects critical during a pandemic when access to care is limited.
This pilot quasi-experimental community based trial examines the feasibility of a sexual violence and adolescent relationship abuse prevention program for girls aged 14-19. Feasibility is assessed through participant attendance, retention and program satisfaction measures and interviews are conducted at baseline, end of program and 3 month follow up (endline) about participant experiences.
This project is designed to develop and test a brief internet-delivered intervention to promote healthy relationships among young adults.
This cluster-randomized school-based study will examine the effectiveness of a teen dating violence (TDV) and sexual violence (SV) prevention program called Expect Respect for preventing serious violence perpetration among middle school students.
The primary purpose of this research is to conduct a brief project to adapt and evaluate an evidence-based intervention model to address reproductive coercion and unintended pregnancy (ARCHES - Addressing Reproductive Coercion within Healthcare Settings) to the Bangladesh cultural context and for use with abortion clients (i.e., develop ARCHES Bangladesh) so as to provide initial assessment of acceptability, feasibility and effectiveness in this high-need LMIC context. Globally, addressing violence and coercion from male partners is considered key to reducing unintended pregnancy among adult and adolescent women. This has led to multiple efforts to integrate IPV screening and counseling in health settings, particularly in the context of family planning, across a range of middle and low-income countries. However, to date, no existing model addressing reproductive coercion has demonstrated reduction in risk for unintended pregnancy, either for Bangladesh or any other country.
