“…In Massachusetts, the past year prevalence of physical IPV was 2.7% in 1998, 6 and in New York, it was 5.6% in 1994. 4 In studies with designs similar to the BRFSS conducted in Georgia 5 and California, 33 6.0% and 6.0% of women, respectively, reported experiencing physical IPV in the past year. Questions asked to ascertain physical IPV were similar to those included in the RI BRFSS.…”

“…This is consistent with findings of other studies. 6,25,[30][31][32][33] The use of alcohol as a coping mechanism for violence has long been acknowledged. 39 Although the causal direction of the relationship between smoking and violence has not been studied, there is evidence indicating that smoking often follows stressful situations.…”

“…The association of IPV with tobacco use has become a focus of research only recently, with women who are current smokers more likely to report IPV. 6,30,33 The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship of IPV to utilization of three preventive medical services, routine checkups, Pap smears, and clinical breast examinations (CBE), and two negative health-related behaviors, current smoking and high-risk alcohol use.…”

“…7 Annual prevalence rates for interpersonal violence, defined as reported physical harm, are relatively low, ranging from ϳ2% [7][8][9] to 6% in population-based surveys. 10 Similarly, a survey of urban mothers found a domestic violence prevalence of 3.7%. 11 Development of national estimates of the prevalence of childhood exposure to violence is complicated by the variety of methods used to study violence.…”

CONTEXT. Witnessing domestic violence increases a child's chance of emotional or behavioral problems during childhood and entering abusive relationships in adulthood, even without co-occurring child maltreatment.OBJECTIVE. Our goals were to estimate the prevalence of reported violent disagreements in the homes of US children and to assess prevalence differences by race/ethnicity, residence, and reported parenting stress.PATIENTS AND METHODS. Data were drawn from the 2003 National Survey of Children's Health. Case subjects with unknown gender, race/ethnicity, or residence were excluded, yielding 99 660 observations. Disagreements were classified on the basis of how the family deals with serious disagreement. If disagreements involved hitting or throwing, even rarely, the household was categorized as having violent disagreements. Households reporting heated argument and shouting were classified as having heated disagreement.RESULTS. Nationally, 10.3% of children lived in homes with reported violent disagreements. Violent disagreements were most prevalent among black households (15.1%), followed by "other" (12.1%), Hispanic (11.3%), and white (8.6%) households. Urban areas had higher prevalence (10.7%) than did small through large rural counties (8.3%-9.9%). In multinomial logistic analysis, parents living in rural counties were less likely to report violent disagreements compared with those in urban. Black children were more likely to be exposed to both violent and heated disagreements than were white children. Parents reporting high parenting stress had higher odds of violent and heated disagreement than parents reporting less stress.CONCLUSIONS. A substantial number of children are exposed to violent disagreement. Although demographic and cultural factors may also influence disagreement style, parental stress seems instrumental in the development of violent disagreements. Parents who experience difficulty with parenting constitute a high-risk populawww.pediatrics.org/cgi

“…Both IPV and PTSD have been associated with negative health consequences (Ciechanowski et al 2004;Kimerling et al 2000;Walker et al 2003;Weinbaum et al 2001;Zoellner et al 2000), and researchers have begun to investigate the pathways through which trauma exposure (e.g., IPV) and reactions to trauma (e.g., PTSD) influence negative health consequences (Cromer and Sachs-Ericsson 2006; Lang et al 2006;Ouimette et al 2004;Roy-Byrne et al 2006). With regard to the former, there appear to be multiple pathways from IPV to negative health consequences including acute injury, chronic health problems as a result of untreated injury, increases in negative health behaviors (Coker et al 2002), as well as the allostatic load associated with trauma (Beckham et al 2002;Glover et al 2006;Resnick et al 1997;Schnurr and Green 2004;Shalev et al 1990.…”

PTSD is a risk factor for alcohol problems and both in turn have been independently associated with increased health problems. However, it is unclear whether alcohol use moderates the relationship between PTSD and health. Participants were battered women (N = 336) recruited from local domestic violence shelters and non-shelter victim-assistance agencies. A 2 (PTSD diagnosis) × 3 (abstainer, infrequent/light, regular/heavy drinking) ANCOVA was conducted, with injuries and length of abuse as covariates and health concerns as the dependent variable. Main effects for PTSD and alcohol use were significant but not the interaction. Women with PTSD reported the greatest number of health concerns. Women who abstained from drinking and those who drank regularly/heavily reported more health concerns than the infrequent/light drinkers. Health concerns associated with PTSD do not appear to be due to problem drinking. In addition, infrequent/light drinking, even for women with PTSD, may be associated with fewer health concerns.
