Limited data are available on experiences of intimate partner violence (IPV) and sexual violence (SV) and health outcomes among American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) populations. This study explores the relationship between IPV and SV, food insecurity, housing insecurity, healthcare access, and self-reported physical and mental health status in a nationally representative sample of AIAN adults ( = 3,634). IPV and SV were associated with poorer physical and mental health at the bivariate level, but not in multivariate analyses. Economic inequalities are a salient predictor of health and may be compounded by demographic and geographic contexts.
关于美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民(AIAN)人群中亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)和性暴力(SV)经历以及与健康结果之间的关系,现有数据有限。本研究在全国代表性的 AIAN 成年人样本(n=3634)中探讨了 IPV 和 SV 与粮食不安全、住房不安全、医疗保健获取以及自我报告的身体和心理健康状况之间的关系。在单变量水平上,IPV 和 SV 与较差的身心健康相关,但在多变量分析中则不然。经济不平等是健康的一个显著预测因素,并且可能因人口和地理背景而更加复杂。
