目标.我们估计了中国亲密伴侣暴力的患病率和危险因素。我们的横断面,比较患病率研究采用了面对面的调查,随机选择妇女参加城市妇科门诊在福州,中国的一个主要教学医院。多元逻辑回归模型用于评估亲密伴侣暴力的危险因素。在接受访谈的600名妇女中,终身亲密伴侣暴力和访谈前一年内发生的暴力的发生率分别为43%和26%。对于终身亲密伴侣暴力,有婚外情和拒绝给受访者钱的伴侣是最强的独立预测因素。对于访谈前一年内发生的亲密伴侣暴力,经常争吵是最强的预测因素。亲密伴侣暴力在中国很普遍,与男性重男轻女的价值观和冲突解决方式有很强的关联。在能够接触到妇女的保健环境中,应高度重视减少亲密伴侣暴力行为的努力。
Objectives. We estimated the prevalence of and risk factors for intimate partner violence in China.Methods. Our cross-sectional, comparative prevalence study used a face-to-face survey of randomly selected women attending an urban outpatient gynecological clinic at a major teaching hospital in Fuzhou, China. Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess risk factors for intimate partner violence.Results. Of the 600 women interviewed, the prevalence of lifetime intimate partner violence and violence taking place within the year before the interview was 43% and 26%, respectively. For lifetime intimate partner violence, partners who had extramarital affairs and who refused to give respondents money were the strongest independent predictors. For intimate partner violence taking place within the year before the interview, frequent quarreling was the strongest predictor.Conclusions. Intimate partner violence is prevalent in China, with strong associations with male patriarchal values and conflict resolutions. Efforts to reduce intimate partner violence should be given high priority in health care settings where women can be reached.
