This study sought to determine factors associated with shelter residence in women with recent histories of intimate partner violence (IPV). The sample included 113 women, approximately half of whom resided in a shelter over the past year. Participating women provided demographic information and completed standardized measures of IPV, trauma, and depression. Ethnicity, income, housing stability, and mental health, but not violence exposure, differentiated the shelter and community groups. Trauma symptoms, housing instability, and ethnicity best predicted shelter residence. Future research should focus on determining what types of services and interventions will best address the unique needs of each population.
本研究旨在确定与近期有亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）史的女性居住庇护所相关的因素。样本包括 113 名女性，其中约有一半在过去一年中居住在庇护所。参与女性提供了人口统计信息，并完成了 IPV、创伤和抑郁的标准化测量。种族、收入、住房稳定性和心理健康，而不是暴力暴露，区分了庇护所和社区群体。创伤症状、住房不稳定和种族是预测居住庇护所的最佳因素。未来的研究应集中于确定哪些类型的服务和干预措施将最能满足每个群体的独特需求。
