The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and correlates of intimate partner violence among female caregivers of children reported to child protective services.
Data were derived from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being, a national probability study of children investigated for child abuse and neglect in the United States. Caregivers were interviewed about demographic characteristics, mental health, substance use, and physical violence by a partner.
The lifetime and past year prevalence of intimate partner violence was 44.8 and 29.0%, respectively. Caregiver major depression and history of prior reports of child maltreatment were strongly associated with violence against women.
The findings highlight the need for effective screening and identification of intimate partner violence in families in which child maltreatment has occurred.
本研究旨在确定向儿童保护服务机构报告的儿童女性照料者中亲密伴侣暴力的患病率及其相关因素。
数据来自全国儿童和青少年福利调查,这是一项对美国因虐待和忽视儿童而接受调查的儿童进行的全国概率研究。就照料者的人口统计学特征、心理健康、物质使用情况以及伴侣实施的身体暴力情况对其进行了访谈。
亲密伴侣暴力的终生患病率和过去一年患病率分别为44.8%和29.0%。照料者的重度抑郁症以及既往有儿童虐待报告史与针对女性的暴力行为密切相关。
研究结果凸显了在发生儿童虐待的家庭中有效筛查和识别亲密伴侣暴力的必要性。
