Analyses based on a random-digit-dial survey of households (N = 12,039) compared Latinos and non-Latinos on sociodemographic factors for intimate partner violence (IPV) and help seeking. Lifetime prevalence of IPV was found to be lower for Latinos than for non-Latinos, but past-year prevalence of IPV was greater for Latinos. Reported IPV victimization was greater among non-Latinos than among Latinos at education levels below college and at family incomes less than $35,000. Informal help seeking was found to be similar for Latinos and non-Latinos; however, non-Latinos reported seeking access to shelters more frequently than Latinos, and Latino immigrants were less likely than non-immigrants to seek help from formal agencies.
基于对 12039 户家庭的随机数字拨号调查的分析，比较了拉丁裔和非拉丁裔在亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）和寻求帮助方面的社会人口因素。研究发现，拉丁裔一生中 IPV 的患病率低于非拉丁裔，但过去一年 IPV 的患病率高于拉丁裔。在受教育程度低于大学和家庭收入低于 35000 美元的人群中，报告的 IPV 受害情况在非拉丁裔中比在拉丁裔中更为严重。研究发现，寻求非正式帮助的拉丁裔和非拉丁裔之间的情况相似；然而，非拉丁裔比拉丁裔更频繁地报告寻求庇护所的帮助，而拉丁裔移民比非移民更不可能寻求正式机构的帮助。
