Background Domestic intimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious healthcare concern, which may be mitigated by early detection, screening and intervention. Objectives We examine posited predictors in IPV and non-IPV groups, and in four different IPV profiles. Possible factors include a) alcohol use, b) drug use, d) depression, e) impulsivity, f) age, and g) any childhood experience in observing parental violence. We also introduce a new “Five Steps in Screening for IPV” quick reference tool, which may assist ED physicians in detection and treatment. Methods This was a cross-sectional study using survey data from 412 inner-city ED patients. Associations were explored using a chi-squared test of independence, independent-samples t-tests, and a one way analysis of variance. Results Nearly 16% had experienced IPV. As a group, they were younger, and more depressed and impulsive than the non-IPV group. They were more likely to engage in binge drinking, use drugs, and had more childhood exposure to violence. In the IPV group, 31% were perpetrators, 20% victims, and 49% both victims and perpetrators. The latter group was younger, more impulsive and depressed, used drugs, and was more likely to have observed parental violence as a child. Conclusion Correlates in groups affected by IPV indicate the same general risk factors, which appear to more acutely affect those who are both perpetrators and victims. Alcohol and drug use, depressive symptoms and childhood exposure to violence may be factors and signs for which emergency physicians should screen in the context of IPV.

“…First, perceived risk has been associated with college students' alcohol involvement as has attitude (Duistman & Colbry, 1995;Laflin, Moore-Hirschl, Weis, & Hayes, 1994;Miller, Toscova, & Miller, 2000;Williams & Hine, 2002). Subjective norms regarding parents has also been found to be protective against alcohol involvement among adolescents (Williams & Hine, 2002).…”

Using a cross-sectional survey, data were collected from 265 first-year college students to determine if parent-student alcohol communication is associated with college drinking or drinking consequences and if this relationship is mediated by students' parental subjective norms, attitudes toward drinking, and perceived risk. Structural equation modeling was used to test hypotheses. Students whose parents talked with them more about the negative effects of alcohol reported more extensive college drinking (beta = 0.12, p < 0.05). Favorable alcohol attitudes were significantly related to both more extensive college drinking (beta = 0.49, p < 0.05) and more drinking consequences (beta = 0.39, p < 0.05). Lower reported perceived risk was significantly related to more drinking consequences (beta = -0.24,p <0.05). Findings indicate that parental communication regarding the negative effects of alcohol may be ineffective at reducing college drinking or drinking consequences.

“…The DDQ, 27 which was used to determine eligibility for the study as described above, is a self-report measure requesting estimation of the individual's "typical" alcohol consumption per day over the last 30 days. The instrument also assesses drinking frequency, peak number of drinks, frequency of heavy episodic drinking, and the age at which drinking began.…”
