However, the results of the current study suggest that physical IPV (physical IPV only or physical IPV plus sexual and/or emotional IPV) is the most common type of IPV in India.
Women with PTSD reported more general aggression, IPV perpetration, and IPV victimization.
With few exceptions, both the number of financial stressors and the individual financial stressors were associated with increased odds of making threats/minor physical IPV, severe physical IPV, and IPV resulting in injury.
Models 1, 3, 5, and 7 established an association between witnessing IPPV and any IPV, moderate physical IPV, severe physical IPV, and sexual IPV, respectively.
No significant reductions were observed for physical and/or sexual IPV, or sexual IPV alone.
Despite wide variations in the prevalence of IPV, many factors affected IPV risk similarly across sites.
We examined three primary IPV exposures: 1) adult lifetime physical IPV, 2) adult lifetime sexual IPV, and 3) psychological IPV in a 2001 intimate relationship.
Totally, 819 (13.5%) women reported ever experiencing any type of IPV: 702 (11.5%) disclosed psychological IPV, 369 (6.1%) physical IPV and 193 (3.2%) sexual IPV.
Of the 63,437 women included in the sexual IPV analyses, 10% reported adult sexual IPV.
Among ever-married participants, 83 women had experienced IPV while 84 women had never experienced IPV.
Participants who had experienced IPV reported poorer physical and mental health than those without IPV.
