转移计划已被证明可以减少亲密伴侣暴力（IPV），但几乎没有证据表明与转移有关的活动如何影响IPV或当计划结束时会发生什么。我们评估了随机分配孟加拉国妇女接受现金或食物，有或没有营养行为改变交流（BCC）的IPV的影响。6至10个月后，IPV没有收到转让和对照组的妇女之间的差异;然而，妇女接受转让BCC经历了26%的身体暴力。有关机制的证据表明，BCC对妇女的“威胁点”、男子的暴力社会代价和家庭福祉具有持续影响。
Transfer programs have been shown to reduce intimate partner violence (IPV), but little evidence exists on how activities linked to transfers affect IPV or what happens when programs end. We assess postprogram impacts on IPV of randomly assigning women in Bangladesh to receive cash or food, with or without nutrition behavior change communication (BCC). Six to ten months postprogram, IPV did not differ between women receiving transfers and a control group; however, women receiving transfers with BCC experienced 26% less physical violence. Evidence on mechanisms suggests sustained effects of BCC on women's "threat points," men's social costs of violence, and household well-being.
