在这篇文章中,荟萃分析技术被用来检查现有的干预研究(n = 11),以确定其对药物滥用的女性样本的亲密伴侣虐待(IPA)幸存者。这项研究是一个起点,在研究和实践中更加重视实施循证综合服务,以解决妇女中同时发生的药物滥用和IPA受害问题,作为主要的交叉公共卫生问题。结果表明,在三个主要领域取得了较大的效果。首先,更大的效应量存在于研究中,其中有更多的妇女经历了当前的IPA。其次,平均年龄较低的研究也显示出比平均年龄较高的研究更大的效应量。最后,样本量较小的研究具有更大的影响。这项研究有助于促进关于这一主题的知识基础的凝聚力,特别是这项荟萃分析的结果,为文献中关于现有干预措施对这一服务不足人群的药物滥用产生影响的承诺水平的空白提供了所需的信息。爱思唯尔公司出版
In this article, meta-analytic techniques are used to examine existing intervention studies (n = 11) to determine their effects on substance abuse among female samples of intimate partner abuse (IPA) survivors. This research serves as a starting point for greater attention in research and practice to the implementation of evidence-based, integrated services to address co-occurring substance abuse and IPA victimization among women as major intersecting public health problems. The results show greater effects in three main areas. First, greater effect sizes exist in studies where larger numbers of women experienced current IPA. Second, studies with a lower mean age also showed greater effect sizes than studies with a higher mean age. Lastly, studies with smaller sample sizes have greater effects. This research helps to facilitate cohesion in the knowledge base on this topic, and the findings of this meta-analysis, in particular, contribute needed information to gaps in the literature on the level of promise of existing interventions to impact substance abuse in this underserved population.
