灾害大大增加了亲密伴侣暴力受害的发生率和严重程度，经验证据表明，灾后获得社会服务和社交网络的机会减少。本研究通过确定IPV的预测因子和深水地平线石油泄漏后IPV受害者的社会和情感支持的感知水平，探讨了IPV受害者在灾后的复合脆弱性。该研究的样本量为29，480，数据来自疾病控制和预防中心海湾国家人口调查。二元逻辑回归分析表明：（1）直接受漏油影响的受访者经历身体和情感IPV的可能性约为两倍;（2）经历情感和身体IPV的受访者感到他们“很少或从未”获得灾后所需的社会和情感支持的可能性为5倍。经历IPV的灾害受害者表现出更大的脆弱性和一系列特殊需求。目前，这些独特的需求与灾害期间和灾后IPV受害者可用的资源之间存在差距。
Disaster significantly increases the prevalence and severity of intimate partner violence (IPV) victimization, with empirical evidence suggesting a decrease in access to social services and social networks available post disaster. This study examines the compounded vulnerability of IPV victims post-disaster by identifying the predictors of IPV and the perceived level of social and emotional support of IPV victims after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill. Using a sample size of 29,480, data for the study was derived from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Gulf States Population Survey. A binary logistic regression analysis indicated that: (1) Respondents directly impacted by the oil spill were about twice as likely to experience both physical and emotional IPV; (2) Respondents who experienced both emotional and physical IPV were 5 times more likely to feel they "rarely or never" received the social and emotional support they needed post-disaster. Victims of disaster experiencing IPV exhibit an increased vulnerability and a particular set of needs. There is currently a gap between these unique needs and resources available to IPV victims during and post-disasters.
