Background
Intimate partner violence directed at women by men continues to be a global concern. However, little is known about the factors associated with perpetrating intimate partner violence among heterosexual men.Purpose
History of childhood sexual abuse and other sociodemographic variables were examined as potential factors associated with severe intimate partner violence perpetration toward women in a sample of heterosexual men in South Africa.Methods
Longitudinal logistic generalized estimating equations examined associations of childhood sexual abuse and sociodemographic variables at baseline with intimate partner violence perpetration at subsequent time points.Results
Among participants with a steady female partner, 21.81 % (190/ 871) reported perpetrating intimate partner violence in the past year at baseline. Having a history of childhood sexual abuse (p < .001), binge drinking (p = .002), being employed (p = .050), and more difficulty controlling sexual impulses in order to use a condom (p = .006) at baseline were associated with self-reported intimate partner violence perpetration in the past year at subsequent time points.Conclusions
With high levels of recent severe physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence perpetration in South Africa, comprehensive interventions are urgently needed. To more fully address gender-based violence, it is important to address associated factors, including exposure to childhood sexual abuse that could impact behavior later in life and that have long-lasting and deleterious effects on men and their female partners.2.
Children with experiences of intimate partner violence (IPV) are at risk. Not all children, however, display symptoms, and
differences connected to gender and age have been demonstrated. In this exploratory study, children’s own reports of symptoms
were used. The 41 recruited children, between 7 and 19 years old, were entered into a group program specially directed toward
children with experiences of IPV. These children reported experiencing more symptoms overall when compared with non-exposed
children. The relationship to the abuser and children’s symptoms related differently for boys and for girls. Girls who had
continued contact with the abusive father described more mental health problems than did other girls exposed to IPV and more
than did boys with continued contact. Among children with experiences of custody disputes or other judicial processes, age
rather than gender was connected to differences in self-reported symptoms. Younger children with experiences of judicial processes
reported more mental health problems than did those with no experience. 相似文献

Background
In South Africa, women comprise the majority of HIV infections. Syndemics, or co-occurring epidemics and risk factors, have been applied in understanding HIV risk among marginalized groups.Purpose
The purposes of this study are to apply the syndemic framework to examine psychosocial problems that co-occur among women attending drinking venues in South Africa and to test how the co-occurrence of these problems may exacerbate risk for HIV infection.Method
Five hundred sixty women from a Cape Town township provided data on multiple psychosocial problems, including food insufficiency, depression, abuse experiences, problem drinking, and sexual behaviors.Results
Bivariate associations among the syndemic factors showed a high degree of co-occurrence and regression analyses showed an additive effect of psychosocial problems on HIV risk behaviors.Conclusions
These results demonstrate the utility of a syndemic framework to understand co-occurring psychosocial problems among women in South Africa. HIV prevention interventions should consider the compounding effects of psychosocial problems among women. 相似文献5.
