随着冠状病毒（COVID-19）全球大流行在各大洲和社区蔓延，人们被迫采取严格的预防措施，如呆在家里和保持社交距离。与这些措施有关，特别是与呆在家里有关，家庭暴力的发生率开始上升。因此，本研究旨在确定2019冠状病毒病大流行期间埃塞俄比亚北部针对育龄妇女的亲密伴侣暴力的普遍程度。采用基于社区的横断面研究设计。数据是在2020年4月至5月期间通过访谈和自填标准问卷收集的。数据输入Epi-data manager 4.2，导出到SPSS 22进行分析。使用了频率分布、百分比和集中趋势测量等描述性分析。随后进行二元和多元逻辑回归分析，以推断结果与自变量之间的关联。共有682名参与者参与了这项研究。亲密伴侣暴力侵害妇女的发生率为24.6%，其中心理暴力最为普遍（13.3%），其次是身体暴力（8.3%）和性暴力（5.3%）。家庭主妇(AOR, 95% CI（18.062(10.088, 32.342)）、年龄小于30岁(AOR, 95% CI（23.045(5.627, 94.377)）、包办婚姻(AOR, 95% CI（2.535（1.572, 4.087)）、丈夫年龄“介于”31-40岁之间（AOR, 95% CI(2.212(1.024, 4.777))））的女性更容易遭受暴力。这项研究表明，亲密伴侣对妇女的暴力行为相当普遍。因此，公开报告任何虐待案件或对虐待的关切对于缓解这一问题至关重要。
As the global pandemic of corona virus (COVID-19) spreads across continents and communities, people are forced to respond with strict preventive measures such as staying at home and keeping social distance. In relation with these measures, particularly with the staying at home, increasing rates of domestic violence are beginning to surface. Hence, this study was aimed at determining the prevalence of intimate partner violence against reproductive age women in northern Ethiopia during the COVID-19 pandemic. A community-based cross-sectional study design was employed. The data were collected during the period of April to May, 2020 using interviews and a self-administered standard questionnaire. The data were entered into the Epi-data manager version 4.2 and exported to SPSS 22 for analysis. The descriptive analysis such as frequency distribution, percentage, and measures of central tendency were used. This was followed by binary and multiple logistic regression analysis to infer the association between the outcome and independent variables. A total of 682 participants were included in the study. The prevalence of intimate partner violence against women was found to stood at 24.6% with psychological violence being the most prevalent (13.3%), followed by physical (8.3%) and sexual violence (5.3%). Women were more likely to suffer from violence if they were housewives (AOR, 95% CI (18.062 (10.088, 32.342))), age less than 30 (AOR, 95% CI (23.045 (5.627, 94.377))), women with arrange marriage (AOR, 95% CI (2.535 (1.572, 4.087))) and women with husband’s age being “between” 31–40 (AOR, CI 95% (2.212 (1.024, 4.777))). This study showed the presence of a relatively high prevalence of intimate partner violence against women. Thus, public reporting of any cases or concerns of abuse is critical and vital to mitigate the problem.
