DESCRIPTION (provided by investigator): Dr. Karin Rhodes, an Emergency Medicine physician, seeks a Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award from NIMH to create a systematic investigation of emergency department response to men involved in intimate partner violence. Most interventions in a health care setting address the victim's (generally women) behavior. This does not take into account the behavior of the perpetrators (generally men). Current assumptions and hypotheses about men involved in violent relationships are based on data from court-mandated batterers' treatment programs, not community health care settings where a broader range of violent behaviors might present and where perpetrators might be more amenable to interventions. Dr. Rhodes proposes to extend the computer screening and data collection methodologies she is currently using to identify at-risk women to assess if it is possible to identify the male perpetrators and/or male victims. (Dr. Rhodes' preliminary data suggests that screening men for victimization may also identify perpetrators). The proposed research plan includes a randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of a self-administered computer program that includes a screen for partner violence on emergency department communication outcomes. Secondary projects seek to validate the screen and conduct structured psychiatric interviews for DSM Axis I and II diagnoses, comparing men who screen positive to men who screen negative for personality traits, psychiatric co-morbidities, and abuse histories. The goal of the exploratory work is to evaluate whether any of the frameworks classifying perpetrators of partner violence apply to men screened in two socio-economically diverse ED settings. This information is crucial if effective interventions are to be designed and tested in this difficult to study population. As a former RWJ Clinical Scholar, Dr. Rhodes is in the position to bring to bear rigorous health services research skills on an extraordinarily complex problem. In so doing, she will gain the skills to commence a career as a clinical scientist whose clinical and research interests mutually inform one another.

描述（由研究者提供）：Karin罗兹医生，急诊医学 医生，寻求NIMH的指导临床科学家发展奖， 对急诊室对男性的反应进行系统调查 涉及亲密伴侣暴力卫生保健中的大多数干预措施 受害者（通常是女性）的行为。这不需要 对犯罪者（通常是男性）的行为进行评估。电流 关于男性参与暴力关系的假设和假设， 基于法院授权的殴打者治疗计划的数据，而不是社区 可能存在更广泛暴力行为的医疗机构 以及犯罪者可能更容易接受干预的地方。罗兹医生 建议扩大计算机筛选和数据收集方法， 目前正在使用，以确定处于危险之中的妇女，以评估是否有可能， 查明男性施暴者和/或男性受害者。(Dr.罗兹的初步 数据表明，对男性进行受害筛查也可能会发现， 肇事者）。 拟议的研究计划包括一项随机对照试验，以评估 包括屏幕的自我管理计算机程序的效果， 伴侣暴力对急诊科沟通结果的影响。二次 项目寻求验证屏幕和进行结构化的精神病 DSM轴I和II诊断的访谈，比较筛查阳性的男性 对于那些人格特征，精神病共病， 和虐待史探索性工作的目标是评估是否 对伴侣暴力行为实施者进行分类的任何框架都适用于男子 在两个不同社会经济背景的艾德环境中进行筛查。该信息 如果要设计和测试有效的干预措施， 很难研究人口。作为前RWJ临床学者，罗兹博士是 能够将严格的卫生服务研究技能运用到一个 非常复杂的问题。在这样做的过程中，她将获得技能， 开始作为临床科学家的职业生涯，其临床和研究兴趣 彼此之间，互相了解。
