FORWARD In March 2001, the National Institutes of Health issued the following warning: "The number of Web sites offering health-related resources grows every day. Many sites provide valuable information, while others may have information that is unreliable or misleading."1 Furthermore, because of the rapid increase in Internet-based information, many hours can be wasted searching, selecting, and printing. Since only the smallest fraction of information dealing with domestic violence is indexed in search engines, such as www.google.com or others, a non-systematic approach to Internet research can be not only time consuming, but also incomplete. This book was created for medical professionals, students, and members of the general public who want to know as much as possible about domestic violence, using the most advanced research tools available and spending the least amount of time doing so. In addition to offering a structured and comprehensive bibliography, the pages that follow will tell you where and how to find reliable information covering virtually all topics related to domestic violence, from the essentials to the most advanced areas of research. Public, academic, government, and peer-reviewed research studies are emphasized. Various abstracts are reproduced to give you some of the latest official information available to date on domestic violence. Abundant guidance is given on how to obtain free-of-charge primary research results via the Internet. While this book focuses on the field of medicine, when some sources provide access to non-medical information relating to domestic violence, these are noted in the text. E-book and electronic versions of this book are fully interactive with each of the Internet sites mentioned (clicking on a hyperlink automatically opens your browser to the site indicated). If you are using the hard copy version of this book, you can access a cited Web site by typing the provided Web address directly into your Internet browser. You may find it useful to refer to synonyms or related terms when accessing these Internet databases. NOTE: At the time of publication, the Web addresses were functional. However, some links may fail due to URL address changes, which is a common occurrence on the Internet. For readers unfamiliar with the Internet, detailed instructions are offered on how to access electronic resources. For readers unfamiliar with medical terminology, a comprehensive glossary is provided. For readers without access to Internet resources, a directory of medical libraries, that have or can locate references cited here, is given. We hope these resources will prove useful to the widest possible audience seeking information on domestic violence. The Editors

CHAPTER 1. STUDIES ON DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Overview In this chapter, we will show you how to locate peer-reviewed references and studies on domestic violence.

The Combined Health Information Database The Combined Health Information Database summarizes studies across numerous federal agencies. To limit your investigation to research studies and domestic violence, you will need to use the advanced search options. First, go to http://chid.nih.gov/index.html. From there, select the “Detailed Search” option (or go directly to that page with the following hyperlink: http://chid.nih.gov/detail/detail.html). The trick in extracting studies is found in the drop boxes at the bottom of the search page where “You may refine your search by.” Select the dates and language you prefer, and the format option “Journal Article.” At the top of the search form, select the number of records you would like to see (we recommend 100) and check the box to display “whole records.” We recommend that you type “domestic violence” (or synonyms) into the “For these words:” box. Consider using the option “anywhere in record” to make your search as broad as possible. If you want to limit the search to only a particular field, such as the title of the journal, then select this option in the “Search in these fields” drop box. The following is what you can expect from this type of search: •

Dental Detection of Domestic Violence Victims Source: Texas Dental Journal. 111(3): 25-26. March 1994. Contact: Available from Texas Dental Association. 1946 South Interregional Highway, Austin, TX 78704-3698. (512) 443-3675. Summary: Dentists are in a unique position to detect domestic violence victims, as most injuries occur in the head and neck areas and will be seen during the dental examination. This article reviews the dental detection of domestic violence victims. The authors stress that dentists must be able to diagnose, treat, or refer patients with diseases or injuries of the oral-perioral structures secondary to domestic violence before irreversible changes have occurred. The authors note that it is easier to detect victims of

Domestic Violence

domestic violence by using a classification system for patients using general categories (types of maltreatment, behavioral patterns, signs, and symptoms) and by using a protocol of basic questions to get their history of domestic violence. Topics include physical abuse, physical neglect, psychological abuse or neglect, financial abuse or neglect, orofacial trauma (including fractures), unrealistic expectations (on the part of caregivers), tissue lesions (due to sexual abuse, stressful psychological conditions, or poor oral hygiene), and patient history. The authors conclude with a brief section reviewing these issues and imploring dentists to learn to recognize actual or potential abuse before a catastrophic event occurs. Dentists should also be familiar with materials describing their patients' legal rights, prevention strategies, and state, local, and county resources that can help stop domestic violence. •

Recognizing and Reporting Victims of Domestic Violence Source: JADA. Journal of American Dental Association. 123(9): 44, 46, 48, 50. September 1992. Summary: Domestic violence can be defined as any violent behavior directed against an individual within the home or family. It occurs in all segments of society and is not limited to a single ethnic or socioeconomic group. This article familiarizes dentists with domestic violence. The authors note that since most intentional injuries occur in the head and neck area, the dentist might be the first to treat the domestic violence victim. Topics include spouse abuse, elder abuse, the dental implications of abuse, examination and documentation considerations, and intervention. The authors stress that all health professionals should be familiar with their state's mechanism for reporting suspected domestic violence. 2 figures. 26 references. (AA-M).

Head, Neck, and Facial Injuries as Markers of Domestic Violence in Women Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. 57(7): 760-762. July 1999. Contact: Available from W.B. Saunders Company. Periodicals Department, P.O. Box 628239, Orlando, FL 32862-8239. (800) 654-2452. Summary: The diagnosis of domestic violence (DV) is difficult because of a lack of clearly defined signs and symptoms. This article reports on a study undertaken to confirm and refine the role of head, neck, and face (HNF) injuries as markers of DV. The cross sectional study used a sample of female trauma patients treated in an inner city hospital emergency room. The predictor study variable was injury location (HNF or other location); the outcome variable was traumatic origin (DV or other cause). A victim of DV was defined as a patient who gave a history of being injured by her spouse or sexual partner. Other data included age, nature of the injury (blunt or penetrating), and injury severity score (ISS). The sample consisted of 100 injured women, with a mean age of 40 years (plus or minus 16.3 years). Thirty-four women were victims of DV. The mean age of the DV victims was 32.5 years (plus or minus 7.3 years) compared with a mean age of 43.9 years (plus or minus 18.2 years) in the other causes group. DV victims were 7.5 times more likely to have HNF injuries than other trauma patients. Age was associated with cause and location of injury. The authors conclude that although HNF injuries and age were sensitive predictors of DV, they remain poor in their specificity as markers. Appended to the article is a commentary. 3 tables. 19 references. (AA-M).

University of Maryland Baltimore, School of Law, 510 W Baltimore St, Baltimore, MD, 21201, (410) 328-3295. Summary: This article looks at ways a physician may resolve the conflict of partner notification and domestic violence against women in the context of the AIDS epidemic. Public health dictates the physician should notify all partners but the physician must balance the severity of potential harm to the patient, as well as weigh the risk that violence will occur, before making the decision to breach confidentiality. The article suggests clinical assessment screens to identify potential violence. In addition, pre- and post-test counseling should include a safety plan, if the physician intends to notify the partner. •

Dental Team's Role in Recognizing and Reporting Domestic Violence Source: Journal of the CDA (Colorado Dental Association). 74(1): 36-39. January 1996. Contact: Available from Colorado Dental Association (CDA). 3690 Yosemite Street, Suite 100, Denver, CO 80237. (303) 740-6900. Summary: This article outlines the dental team's role in recognizing and reporting domestic violence. The authors stress that the location of injuries associated with nonaccidental trauma suffered by victims of domestic violence is critically important to dentists and their auxiliary personnel. Topics covered include spouse abuse; elderly abuse; implications for the dental team; examination and documentation; and recommendations for intervention, including legal considerations. 4 figures. 30 references.

Domestic Violence Identification and Referral Source: Journal of Dental Hygiene. 70(2): 74-79. March-April 1996. Summary: This article reminds readers of the ethical responsibility of oral health care providers in the area of domestic violence identification and referral. Focusing on the act of partner abuse by a male adult against a female adult, the author covers topics including a definition of domestic violence, the impact of violence on the U.S. economy, the role of government and healthcare organizations, the role of the dental hygienist and the profession, the physical signs of domestic violence, the behavioral indicators of domestic violence, communication strategies, and ethical responsibilities. The author hopes to increase readers' awareness of the signs of suspected domestic violence and to emphasize the importance of being involved in prevention and early intervention. One chart lists the addresses and telephone numbers of domestic violence national information centers; a second provides a brief suggested reading list. 2 tables. 23 references.

Domestic Violence

intervening to help victims. The authors surveyed a national random sample of 321 dentists by mail from November 1997 to March 1998 about their attitudes and clinical practice behaviors related to domestic violence. Eighty-seven percent of responding dentists never screened for domestic violence; 18 percent never screened even when patients had visible signs of trauma on their heads or necks. Overall, respondents intervened only minimally to help patients whom they had identified as victims. Respondents reported that the major barriers to screening were the presence of a partner or children (77 percent), lack of training (68 percent), concern about offending patients (66 percent), and their own embarrassment about bringing up the topic of abuse (51 percent). Respondents who had received domestic violence education were significantly more likely to screen for domestic violence and to intervene. The authors conclude by suggesting that dentists follow a model with the acronym AVDR when approaching abused patients in their practice: Ask about abuse; provide Validating messages; Document presenting signs; and Refer victims to domestic violence specialists. 4 tables. 47 references. •

Maxillofacial Injuries Associated with Domestic Violence Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. 59(11): 1277-1284. November 2001. Contact: Available from W.B. Saunders Company. Periodicals Department, P.O. Box 629239, Orlando, FL 32862-8239. (800) 654-2452. Summary: This article reports on a study undertaken to report the incidence, causes (etiology) and patterns of maxillofacial (jaw and face) injury associated with domestic violence. The authors conducted a retrospective review of patients treated for domestic violence injuries at an inner city hospital over a 5 year period; data were collected on type and location of injury, mechanism of injury, alcohol involvement, and treatment. The sample consisted of 236 emergency room admissions. The majority (81 percent) of victims presented with maxillofacial injuries. The fist was a favorite means for assaults (67 percent). The middle third of the face was most commonly involved (69 percent). Soft tissue injuries were the most common type of injury (61 percent). Facial fractures were present in 30 percent of victims. The average number of mandible fractures per patient was 1.32. The majority of facial fractures (40 percent) were nasal fractures. Leftsided facial injuries were more common than right sided. These data confirm that most victims of domestic violence sustain maxillofacial injuries. The preponderance of facial injuries makes it very likely that oral and maxillofacial surgeons will be involved in the care of these patients. Appended to the article is a commentary. 6 figures. 6 tables. 21 references.

Relationship Between Spouse Abuse and the Maltreatment of Dementia Sufferers by their Caregivers Source: American Journal of Alzheimer's Disease. 14(4): July-August 1999. Summary: This journal article reviews the family violence literature for possible connections between spouse abuse and the abuse of older people with dementia by their family caregivers. Some cases are classified as spouse abuse of dementia patients and others involve abuse by adult children who had grown up witnessing interparental violence. Because the spouse abuse literature indicates that perpetrators of domestic violence typically underreport their levels of aggression, it is possible that the levels of abuse reported by caregivers of dementia patients also is less than the actual levels occurring in these relationships. Finally, the author suggests that the spouse abuse literature may offer valuable information about effective interventions for abusive caregivers such as educating violent caregivers about effective ways to manage their anger and alternative non-violent ways of responding to hostile situations initiated by the care recipient. 23 references.

Domestic Violence

Summary: This medical news brief points out shortcomings of the medical community in addressing domestic violence to women, and suggests that the medical model reinforces a detached stance that protects physicians from the awareness of their own feelings and those of their patients. For example, the language used on the medical chart to describe the injury (e.g. hit by lead pipe, hit on left wrist with jackhammer) is often passive, disembodied phrases that disregard the presence of both the batterer and the victim. •

Domestic violence begets other problems of which physicians must be aware to be effective Source: JAMA: Journal of the American Medical Association. 264(8): 940, 943-944. August 22-29, 1990. Summary: This medical news brief suggests that an increasing number of physicians think that treatment of domestic violence to women belongs within the realm of medicine. It supports a change in the medical setting toward probing the patient on the cause of injuries or illnesses instead of on prescribing anti-pain and antidepressant medications for symptomatic relief.

Las Mujeres con VIH/SIDA Denuncian la Violencia Domestica. [Women With HIV/AIDS Speak Out on Domestic Violence] Source: WomanCare News, October 1997; 10 p. Contact: Center for Women Policy Studies, National Resource Center on Women and AIDS Policy, 1211 Connecticut Ave NW Ste 312, Washington, DC, 20036, (202) 872-1770, http://www.centerwomenpolicy.org. Summary: This newsletter provides information about the connection between the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), domestic violence, and women. HIV prevention programs and policies that attempt to serve women with HIV/AIDS must include strategies to respond to domestic violence and to collaborate with battered women's programs and shelters to develop such strategies. The newsletter provides statistics on the incidence rates of domestic violence in the metropolitan Washington, DC area. Research shows that women who are at the highest risk for HIV/AIDS also face an increased risk for domestic violence. Programs should be designed to aid women, maintain their confidentiality in the partner notification process, and help them deal with the stress of domestic violence and HIV/AIDS. Personal anecdotes tell the stories of women who face domestic violence and HIV/AIDS-related issues such as getting out of an abusive relationship, possibly being infected on purpose by abusive partners, negotiating condom use, and finding or sustaining self-esteem that can help them better deal with these problems. The newsletter supplies information about the services and programs offered by the Center for Women Policy Studies. The newsletter provides contact information for services from which women in the Washington, DC area can learn more about HIV/AIDS and domestic violence.

Federally Funded Research on Domestic Violence The U.S. Government supports a variety of research studies relating to domestic violence. These studies are tracked by the Office of Extramural Research at the National Institutes of Health.2 CRISP (Computerized Retrieval of Information on Scientific Projects) is a searchable database of federally funded biomedical research projects conducted at universities, hospitals, and other institutions. Search the CRISP Web site at http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/crisp_query.generate_screen. You will have the option to perform targeted searches by various criteria, including geography, date, and topics related to domestic violence. For most of the studies, the agencies reporting into CRISP provide summaries or abstracts. As opposed to clinical trial research using patients, many federally funded studies use animals or simulated models to explore domestic violence. The following is typical of the type of information found when searching the CRISP database for domestic violence: •

Project Title: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY OF SUICIDE PREVENTION IN THE USAF Principal Investigator & Institution: Knox, Kerry L. Assistant Professor; Community and Prev Medicine; University of Rochester Orpa - Rc Box 270140 Rochester, NY 14627 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 22-JUL-2002; Project End 30-JUN-2007 Summary: (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this proposal is to allow me to develop the skills necessary to become an independent investigator and a leading scholar in the design and evaluation of the effectiveness of community-based preventive mental health intervention research. My primary focus will be on prevention of suicide. I have a unique opportunity to assess, both retrospectively and prospectively, the effects of a program developed in the United States Air Force that may have implemented effective strategies for reducing the suicide rate among its members. The program in the USAF is an unusual example of a community level prevention to address suicide prevention specifically, and mental health illness in general, integrating universal and targeted approaches to prevention. In the United States, research and programs on prevention of suicide and related morbidities has languished while other public health challenges have not. In part this has been due to the lack of political and social will to address mental health problems, especially suicide. Recently, our nation's top leading

Taken together, my current capacity to access a "naturalistic laboratory", in a climate of political imperative to advance the status of the field of suicide prevention, renders a prospect of tremendous potential for participating in advancing the field of mental preventive mental health. As the field of preventive trials for mental health moves forward, the availability of investigators who are broadly trained not only to conduct program evaluations but also can direct and carry out field trials for the evaluation of the effectiveness of interventions will become vital. I propose to transition to this level of competency, through engaging in a rigorous training program with a interdisciplinary team of mentors, expert consultants and collaborators. This career development award will build upon my already strong skills in epidemiology and public health, social sciences, and basic science research. It is designed to enhance my knowledge and skills in preventive mental health, focusing on suicide, and to develop new skills in investigative methodologies applicable to field trials. The major research question of this proposal is to investigate whether the USAF Suicide Prevention Program results in a reduction in events of suicide, attempted suicide, and related morbidities, such as domestic violence, alcoholism and depression and maintains the reduction over time.

Project Title: A RCT OF COMPUTER SCREENING FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Principal Investigator & Institution: Howes, David; Medicine; University of Chicago 5801 S Ellis Ave Chicago, IL 60637 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2000; Project End 31-AUG-2003 Summary: Victims of domestic violence frequently seek medical care in emergency departments (EDs) and health care providers have the opportunity to detect DV and intervene. Unfortunately ED personnel often do not screen for DV due to time pressures and the sensitive nature of the problem. Novel methods are needed to improve detection and intervention in the ED. We developed and piloted a self-administered computer health risk assessment (ED Prevent) that is completed by patients before their ED visit. High-risk behaviors are provided to the ED physician. Our pilot demonstrated significant improvement in the chart documentation of DV by physicians in patients receiving ED Prevent (19 chart notes of DV) compared to controls (1 chart note).This study is a randomized control trial to test the effect of ED Prevent on the communication between physicians/nurses and patients about DV. 800 women patients presenting to two different EDs (a urban ED with largely African American patients and a suburban community ED with mainly Caucasian patients) will be randomized to either ED Prevent or Usual Care. All visits will be audio-taped. Primary outcomes for the study will be patient disclosure and physician/nurse discussion of DV based on the audiotapes. Secondary outcomes will include patient knowledge of, or contact with, DV services, patient satisfaction with communication with ED staff, and chart documentation of DV. The effect of ED Prevent on rates of disclosure and discussion will be evaluated using logistic regression controlling for hospital site and patient demographics. In addition a qualitative analysis will explore the effect of ED Prevent on DV communication variables [such as the timing and initiation of discussions about DV and ED provider/patient affective responses] The study has the potential to provide a novel way to screen women in the ED relying on a computer instead of a busy physician and potentially shifting the role of the physician to discussion and referral, ultimately improving the likelihood that women will change the abusive situation. The study

results may be generalizable to many other EDs with a variety of populations. Further the data will be available for future investigations of communication in the ED. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

Project Title: A THEORECTICAL MODEL OF RELATIONSHIP ABUSE Principal Investigator & Institution: Borjesson, Wiveca I. Psychology; University of Central Florida 4000 Central Florida Blvd Orlando, FL 32816 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 21-NOV-2003 Summary: (provided by candidate): A better understanding of the relationship between perceived control, alcohol use, and relationship violence could inform the development of effective secondary and tertiary intervention efforts. The present study is proposed as a first step toward testing a theoretical model of the relationship between perceived control, aggressive alcohol expectancies, alcohol use during aggressive acts, and actual relationship abuse. Multiple indicators of each of these variables will be completed by a large sample of college students at a large open enrollment state university. The decision to conduct this research in a university setting stems from the results of several studies that have found that college students engage in as many, and possibly more, abusive behaviors as married couples in the general population. Therefore, college students may be an ideal population for theory development and early intervention with high-risk individuals. The theoretical model will be evaluated with structural equation modeling. It is hypothesized that perceived control will be a significant predictor of early relatively mild abusive behaviors and that aggressive alcohol expectancies will partially mediate this relationship. It is also hypothesized that the effect of expectancies on actual abuse will be moderated by alcohol use during aggressive acts. If this model is validated, it could facilitate identification of high-risk individuals before serious violence occurs. Furthermore, this model could guide development of interventions based on increasing perceived control and challenging aggressive alcohol expectancies.

Project Title: AGGRESSION AND VILOLENCE AMONG RURAL TEEN Principal Investigator & Institution: Galliher, Renee V. Psychology; Utah State University Logan, UT 84322 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-MAR-2003; Project End 29-FEB-2004 Summary: The overall goal of the proposed project is to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the relational and interactional processes contributing to dating aggression among rural adolescent couples. In contrast to the majority of research examining adolescent dating aggression, the current study conceptualizes the couple as the unit of analysis and uses an observational methodology to assess adolescent couple members' own subjective understandings of their interactions. As part of a larger ongoing research plan, this study will also begin to examine the role of ethnicity in understanding communication patterns in adolescent couples and how they relate to dating aggression. A mediational model of dating aggression is proposed in which couple members' perceptions of their communication with their romantic partners mediate the association between family of origin variables and the report of aggression in the relationship. One hundred Euro-American and Latino adolescent couples who have been dating a minimum of four weeks will be recruited from high schools in rural western communities. Couple members will individually complete questionnaires assessing parent relationship qualities and conflict management strategies (both between parents and between participant couple members). In addition, couples will be

12 Domestic Violence

videotaped having three brief conversations adapted from previous observational work with adolescent couples. Adolescents will then individually view and rate their own and their partners' behaviors using a video-recall procedure. The conversations will be divided into 20-second segments and couple members will rate themselves and their partners on several behavioral dimensions using Likert rating scales for each segment. Analyses will examine the nature of adolescent couple members' perceptions of their interaction and the associations among parent relational quality, couple communication, and dating aggression.

Project Title: AN INTERVIEW FOR FAMILIES OF DRUG USERS Principal Investigator & Institution: Kirby, Kimberly C. Associate Professor; Treatment Research Institute, Inc. (Tri) 600 Public Ledger Bldg Philadelphia, PA 19106 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2000; Project End 31-AUG-2004 Summary: (Adapted from the Applicant's Abstract): This is a revision of grant application DA 1272-01, The Family Impact Survey: An Interview for Families of Drug Users, which was reviewed in March 1999. This research will further the development of the Family Impact Survey; a comprehensive assessment tool that measures the special problems faced by family member and significant others (FSOs) of drug abusers. The instrument addresses drug and alcohol use of family members and seven problem areas: Emotional, Relationship, Lifestyle, Legal, Financial, Health, and Physical Abuse. While research has documented increased prevalence of illness and increased domestic violence among FSOs of drug users, most studies have focused on psychological and interpersonal functioning of the family members of alcoholics. Systematic research exploring multiple aspects of the problems faced by FSOs of variety of drug users is virtually nonexistent, despite acknowledgment in both professional and lay literature that drug addiction affects the entire family. One factor hindering a comprehensive approach to the problems faced these FSOs is the lack of a multidimensional instrument to assess the wide range of problems they face. The Family Impact Survey collects standard, comprehensive, clinically pertinent information about the wide variety, of problems that beset families of drug abusers. This research will utilize a broad clinical sample to establish the interrater agreement and test-retest reliability of the instrument, develop standardized scores for different areas of the instrument, conduct psychometric/statistical analyses to refine the areas, establish internal consistency, and determine inter-correlation of problem area scores. The work proposed does not complete all the steps necessary for establishing a psychometrically sound instrument. Later studies will address issues of instrument validity and will examine whether the psychometric properties initially established here are maintained with a much large, representatively sampled population. Further development of this instrument is an important step in better understanding the impact of drug abuse on families, informing clinical assessment and treatment planning facilitating clinical research, and developing health policy for drug abuse treatment and for individuals dealing with the stress of a close relationship with a drug user. In addition, it could be a useful outcome measure in drug abuse treatment, providing information about improvements and cost-offsets that extend beyond the drug abuser to his or her family.

Project Title: AREA-BASED SOCIOECONOMIC MEASURES FOR HEALTH DATA Principal Investigator & Institution: Krieger, Nancy; Health Policy and Management; Harvard University (Sch of Public Hlth) Public Health Campus Boston, MA 02460

Studies 13

Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-1998; Project End 30-JUN-2004 Summary: This epidemiologic investigation will establish area-based measures of socioeconomic position appropriate for US public health surveillance systems and health research. To create these measures, we propose a cross-sectional study involving two US states, Massachusetts (MA) and Rhode Island (RI), using public health surveillance data from the mid-1980s to mid-1990s in conjunction with 1990 census tract, census block-group, and zip code socioeconomic data. We will: (1) geocode public health surveillance data bases containing individuals' residential addresses by appending codes for each address's census tract, block-group, and zip code; (2) create different area-based socioeconomic measures that we will apply to each geographic unit (census tract, block-group, zip code), following and extending approaches used in extant public health and social science literature; (3) link each geocoded record to the relevant census tract, block-group, and zipcode area-based socioeconomic measures; (4) investigate the comparability of the area-based socioeconomic measures, by state, with regard to both socioeconomic ranking of geographic units (centus tract, block-group, zip code) and sensitivity and specificity in predicting available individual-level socioeconomic data obtained in three public health data bases (birth and death certificates and the RI Health Interview Survey); (5) compare quantification of associations of the area-based socioeconomic measures with health outcomes, within and across geographic units (census tract, block-group, zip code), by state, for outcomes expected to exhibit socioeconomic gradients in health: birth rate, birth weight, gestational age, infant mortality, adult mortality (all-cause and cause-specific), cancer incidence, sexually transmitted diseases, tuberculosis domestic violence, gun shot and stab wounds, and childhood lead screening, as well as compare results to gradients in health detected with individual-level socioeconomic data, using the birth and death certificate and RI Health Interview Survey data, and (6) select the most valid, powerful, and easily understood area-based socioeconomic measure(s) and prepare a monograph explaining our methodology, to facilitate use of area-based socioeconomic measures by health agencies and researchers. In doing so, our project incorporates socioeconomic data, a powerful determinant of population health, disease, and well-being, into routinely collected public health data and greatly augments capacity to: (a) monitor socioeconomic inequalities in health in the United States, (b) analyze the contribution of socioeconomic inequality to racial/ethnic inequalities in health, and (c) guide allocation of resources and interventions to attain social equity in health.

Project Title: ASIAN AMERICAN FAMILY CONFLICT ASSESSMENT TOOL IN HAWAIIAN CHINESE FAMILIES Principal Investigator & Institution: Willgerodt, Mayumi A.; University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2002; Project End 30-JUN-2007 Summary: Chinese-Americans are the largest component of the 10 million AsianAmericans (AA) residing in the United States. Previous research has shown that immigration and acculturation have been linked to anxiety, depression, behavior disorders, domestic violence, substance abuse and suicide. Intergenerational conflict (IC) resulting from cultural orientation differences within families may be a key source of stress for immigrant families which, in turn may affect family functioning and mental health. The Asian American Family Conflict Assessment Tool (AAFCAT) was developed by the principal investigator to identify and measure issues related to conflict in Chinese immigrant families from the perspective of multiple family members. The

14 Domestic Violence

purpose of this study is to explore AAFCAT's validity among Chinese immigrant families in Hawaii. Ultimately, this will allow comparison of integenerational conflict in Chinese-American families in Washington and Hawaii. One hundred families will be recruited to participate in this study, which will employ a mailed questionnairre. Data analysis will consist of Pearson product moment correlations and analysis of variance. Results from this study will provide the foundation for a larger multi-site cross-cultural study to be conducted in Washington and Hawaii that will seek to understand individual, family and environmental factors associated with poor psychological and physical health among Chinese immigrant families.

Project Title: BEHAVIORAL COUPLES THERAPY FOR DRUG ABUSE Principal Investigator & Institution: Fals-Stewart, William S. Senior Research Scientist; None; State University of New York at Buffalo 402 Crofts Hall Buffalo, NY 14260 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2002; Project End 31-JUL-2006 Summary: (provided by applicant): The results of multiple studies over the last 25 years indicate that, compared to traditional individual-based treatments, use of Behavioral Couples Therapy (BCT) for married or cohabiting alcoholic and drug-abusing patients results in superior outcomes across multiple domains of psychosocial functioning, including reduced substance use, increased relationship satisfaction, reduced levels of domestic violence, and improved family adjustment. However, despite its demonstrated efficacy, the results of a recent survey indicate BCT is rarely used in community-based substance abuse treatment programs. One of the barriers identified in the survey as interfering with the transfer of BCT from research settings into these programs was that BCT was perceived as costly to deliver, due largely to the staff resources required to provide BCT in the standard conjoint format (i.e., one or two therapists treating a patient and his or her partner for a clinical hour). The mandate for investigators is to develop a version of BCT that is less costly to deliver and yet retains the clinical effectiveness of standard BCT. A potential solution to the problem of the high treatment delivery costs for BCT is to develop a clinically effective version of BCT that can be conducted in a multi-couple group; such a format would allow for the more efficient use of limited staff resources. Thus, the proposed project has two primary aims which will be addressed in two sequential phases. In Phase I, we will develop and refine a 12-session treatment manual for conducting Behavioral Couples Therapy in a group therapy format (G-BCT) for married or cohabiting substance-abusing men and their nonsubstance-abusing intimate female partners. In Phase II of the project, we will conduct a small pilot study in which subjects participating in G-BCT plus Individual Drug Counseling (IDC) will be compared to subjects who participate in an equally intensive Standard BCT (S-BCT) plus IDC and those who receive treatment as usual [i.e., group-based drug abuse counseling (GDQ plus IDC] in terms of clinical outcomes (e.g., substance, dyadic adjustment, family functioning), as well as cost outcomes (e.g., costbenefit and cost-effectiveness). If the objectives of the proposed study are met, an efficacious variant of BCT would be available that community-based treatment programs could provide using a comparatively efficient delivery format.

Project Title: BIOSOCIAL RISK FACTORS FOR CHILDHOOD BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS Principal Investigator & Institution: Liu, Jianghong; Social Science Research Inst; University of Southern California 2250 Alcazar Street, Csc-219 Los Angeles, CA 90033

Studies 15

Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 09-SEP-2003; Project End 08-SEP-2006 Summary: (provided by applicant): This study aims to investigate the link between early biosocial risk factors and childhood externalizing behavior problems. Specifically, the study will examine how prenatal health factors interact with postnatal psychosocial risk factors in predisposing to later externalizing behavior. The specific aims are to: (1) assess the direct effect of prenatal biological and postnatal psychosocial risk factors on childhood externalizing behavior; (2) examine the interactive effect of biological and psychosocial risk factors on childhood externalizing behavior; (3) test what factors mediate the above direct and interactive effects of biological/social risk factors on childhood externalizing behavior; (4) identify the specific components of biological and social risk factors which give rise to childhood externalizing behavior; (5) test the relationship between internalizing behavior in relation to the above risk and mediating factors in predisposing to childhood internalizing behavior. Prenatal biological risk factors include maternal smoking during pregnancy, and pregnancy/birth complications. Postnatal psychosocial risk factors include parenting, child rearing disagreements, domestic violence, and home environment. Further, the mediating role of cognitive ability, and temperament, will also be explored. Hypotheses will be tested in the context of an ongoing prospective longitudinal study of approximately 600 threeyear-old male and female children using structural equation modeling. By attempting to further establish the early, modifiable health risk factors for externalizing behavior, and by examining a biosocial perspective on antisocial behavior, the proposed study aims to illustrate how the Nursing profession can potentially impact this significant societal problem as well as better inform future prevention programs.

Project Title: BRIEF INTERVENTION TO REDUCE DRINKING AMONG BATTERERS Principal Investigator & Institution: Stuart, Gregory L.; Butler Hospital (Providence, Ri) 345 Blackstone Blvd Providence, RI 02906 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUL-2003; Project End 30-JUN-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): Intimate partner violence results in a wide variety of devastating consequences, including physical and mental health problems, divorce, suicide, and spousal homicide. There is substantial evidence for the association between alcohol and partner violence. Recent research has shown that violence is 8-20 times more likely to occur on a drinking day than on a non-drinking day. In populations of individuals with alcohol problems, research has shown that extended interventions specifically designed to reduce alcohol use also produce decreases in partner violence. However, research suggests that treatment for intimate partner violence is relatively ineffective, particularly among individuals who use alcohol excessively. Batterer treatment outcome research has shown that individuals with alcohol problems are 16 times more likely to recidivate to violence after the intervention than individuals without alcohol problems. To date, methods for reducing alcohol use in male batterers have not been explored, and the extent to which treatment for hazardous alcohol use will ameliorate subsequent partner violence is currently unknown. We propose to conduct a randomized clinical trial in which 326 hazardous drinking men who are arrested and court-mandated to attend batterers' intervention groups will be randomly assigned to: (a) a brief, motivationally focused alcohol intervention (adapted from the Motivational Enhancement Therapy Manual used in Project MATCH) plus standard batterers' intervention or (b) standard batterers' intervention alone. Batterers' alcohol use, problems arising from alcohol use, and partner physical and psychological

16 Domestic Violence

aggression will be assessed at baseline, 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up. Batterers' relationship partners will be included in the study to provide corroborating reports of alcohol use and violence, and arrest records and protection orders will be obtained as further indices of violence recidivism. We hypothesize that adding a brief alcohol treatment to standard batterers' intervention will result in less alcohol use and partner violence at all follow-up assessments, relative to standard batterers' intervention alone. If it is effective, this brief alcohol treatment can be readily integrated into existing batterer intervention programs. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

CARE,

AND

THE

Principal Investigator & Institution: Pasick, Rena J. Associate Director; Northern California Cancer Center 32960 Alvarado-Niles Rd, Ste 600 Union City, CA 94587 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-1992; Project End 30-NOV-2003 Summary: Low-income women are at high risk for developing cervical cancer due not only to the higher prevalence of risk factors and lack of access to screening, but also because of barriers to timely follow-up when screened and found to have an abnormality. Lack of follow-up, therefore, contributes to the racial and ethnic health outcome disparities that exist for cervical cancer. While other interventions have shown some success at improving Pap smear follow-up rates, there is no existing randomized intervention trial that has demonstrated such high rates of improvement in follow-up as the Pathfinders study that addresses follow-up barriers in a very high-risk population of ethnically diverse, low-income, inner city women. The intervention consisted of computer-assisted tracking, education, counseling in consumer skills and ways of coping, transportation vouchers, and referrals for suspected mental health, alcohol/drug abuse, and domestic violence. When analyzed by intention to treat, of 348 women who were randomized at the time of the institutional receipt of the abnormal result, twice as many women in the intervention group were confirmed to have a follow-up test within 6 mos. of their abnormal Pap smear than in the control group, 70% versus 36% (p<0.01). By using an expanded tracking protocol, we were able to locate and to deliver the intervention to 128/178 women in the intervention group. Of those who received the intervention, 83% had a documented follow-up test with 6 mos. versus 36% in the intervention group who did not receive the intervention (p<0.01). Overall, we were unable to contact 18 (10%) women, 16 (9%) moved, and 11 (6%) refused the counseling intervention. The average time-cost of tracking and outreach counseling per woman was 109 min. With this project, we have demonstrated that low follow-up rates can be substantially improved by the implementation of a more personal and culturally tailored approach, coupled with utilization of state-of-the-art computer assistance. This supplement addresses the need for dissemination of cost-effective interventions that improve Pap smear follow-up in high-risk populations. We propose a strategy for dissemination and maintenance of the intervention on a local-scale. If successful, we will adapt the intervention, based on what we have learned, for more widespread dissemination. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

Project Title: CAUSES AND ASSESSMENT OF CHILD NEGLECT Principal Investigator & Institution: Kaufman Kantor, Glenda K. Research Associate Professor; Family Research Laboratory; University of New Hampshire Service Building Durham, NH 038243585

Studies 17

Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 22-SEP-2000; Project End 30-JUN-2004 Summary: This study will address two interrelated and crucial aspects of research that received inadequate attention in studies of neglect: measure development and estimates of prevalence. Lacking adequate measures, few studies have attempted to estimate community prevalence rates of neglect, apart from the more general category of maltreatment. A related deficiency that this study will address is failure to obtain neglect data from the perspective of children and fathers. To address these deficiencies the investigators will develop child self-report and parent-self-report versions of the Mulit-dimensional Neglect scale. This instrument measures four dimensions of neglect: Physical, Emotional, Supervisory, and Cognitive. The resulting instruments will be used to assess the prevalence and chronicity of neglect by means of a survey of a community sample of 1000 Maine households, seeded with a clinical neglect sample of 300 families. The child self-report measure will be used with a sample of 300 children who have been assessed at a clinic specializing in child maltreatment. The resulting data will be used to assess the validity and reliability of the Multidimensional Neglect Scale and to develop normative tables that can be used to compare a given case with the general population and known cases of neglect, and to evaluate children being assessed or treated for maltreatment relative to other children in that situation. The study will also describe characteristics of neglectful families in community and clinical samples; describe the relationship of neglect to child behavior problems; determine the relationship between domestic violence and/or parental substance abuse to child neglect; and determine the relationship of parental depression to parental attachment and child neglect. The availability of these instruments will provide an important first step in enhancing the ability of providers to target primary prevention steps, to evaluate and recommend appropriate care for victims of neglect, and to influence eventual health outcomes for children and families.

Project Title: CENTER ON HEALTH DISPARITIES RESEARCH Principal Investigator & Institution: Gaston-Johansson, Fannie J. None; Johns Hopkins University 3400 N Charles St Baltimore, MD 21218 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2002; Project End 30-JUN-2007 Summary: (provided by applicant): The overall goal of the Center on Health Disparities Research (CHDR) is to enhance our understanding of health disparities by creating an infrastructure that supports health disparity research (HDR) across the life span. The CHDR will support a partnership between researchers, faculty and students at a majority institution, Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing, and a minority serving institution, North Carolina Agriculture &Technology State University School of Nursing. The Center will expand the cadre of nurse researchers involved in minority health and health disparities research. It will also increase the number of research projects aimed at eliminating health disparities (HD), and enhance the career development of potential minority nurse investigators. The three cores, administrative, pilot feasibility, and research mentoring, form the building blocks of our CHDR to achieve the following objectives: To facilitate HDR across the lifespan by managing overall activities and shared resources of the Center and by assisting in the development and coordination of efforts between the majority institution and the partnering institution (Administrative Core); 2. To extend our understanding of HD across the life span by developing and testing culturally sensitive nursing interventions related to disparities in access to health care, processes of care, and health outcomes in selected areas of HDR related to faculty expertise: health promotion, symptom management,

domestic violence. (Pilot/Feasibility Research Core); 3. To promote development of research skills, opportunities for scholarship, and attainment of external funding related to HDR among faculty, staff, predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees, and visiting scholars. (Research Mentoring Core). Three disparity areas- accesses to care, processes of care, and health outcomes- will serve as an overarching framework with a focus on culturally sensitive HD nursing interventions. The Executive Committee, including Center Director and Co-Director, core directors and Center investigators from both the majority and partnering institution will assist the Director in making scientific and administrative decisions related to the Center. The Scientific Advisory Committee, composed of outstanding scientists, administrators, and community leaders will advise the Executive Committee and investigators in matters related to priorities for study, relevant issues, and problems within the designated research areas.

Project Title: CHILDREN OF BATTERED WOMEN--RISKS AND RESILIENCY Principal Investigator & Institution: Sullivan, Cris M. Associate Professor; Psychology; Michigan State University 301 Administration Bldg East Lansing, MI 48824 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-1998; Project End 31-MAY-2003 Summary: (Applicant's Abstract): Prior research has suggested that children exposed to domestic violence are at increased risk for numerous and psychological problems. However, children's resilience has been found to be positively affected by a number of variables, including mother's well-being, the presence of a mentor in their lives, and participation in domestic violence support and education groups. Therefore, the proposed study was designed to examine the effectiveness of an intensive, communitybased intervention, provided to half the randomly assigned study participants. The experimental intervention is based on two prior successful interventions of the principal investigator's, one with abused women, and one with abused women and their children. The intervention will be provided to families free of charge, will last four months, and involves three major components: (1) advocacy and support for mothers and the children; (3) developing or enhancing a positive, mentoring relationship between each child and a significant adult in their lives; and (4) providing a 12-week support and education group for the children. Multi-method, multi-source strategies will be used to measure the variables of interest. The following hypotheses are posed to guide the research agenda. (a) Children who with paraprofessional advocates will show 1) improved psychological and behavioral adjustment--increased self-competence, reduced depression, fewer problem behavior; 2) greater ability to cope with domestic violence-reduced self-blame, clearer safety plans, awareness of domestic violence warning signs, less use of violence as a coping strategy, less acceptance of violence from others; 3) improved school attendance and academic achievement, and 4) increased quantity and quality of contact with positive adult mentors. (b) Mothers in the experimental condition will show 1) increased access to community resources and increased ability to continue to access needed resources; 2) increased social support; and 3) an increased repertoire of positive parenting skills. Further, it is anticipated that 4) improvements in these concrete resources will lead to improvements in mothers' psychological well-being (improved quality of life, decreased depression, and reduced parenting stress). (c) Improvements in mothers' outcomes (e.g., resources, social support, parenting skills, psychological wellbeing) will partially mediate the effects of the advocacy intervention on the children's psychological and behavioral adjustment (increased self-competence, reduced depression, fewer problem behaviors). All intervention effects are expected to persist over time. In addition to the central hypotheses about the intervention, we will examine

Project Title: CHINESE HEALTH AND FAMILY BEHAVIOR Principal Investigator & Institution: Parish, William L. Director; National Opinion Research Center 1155 E 60Th St Chicago, IL 60637 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 15-JAN-1998; Project End 30-APR-2003 Summary: This research proposes to examine the social construction of sexuality and the distribution of sexually transmitted diseases in China, employing both survey methods and biomarkers in a multi-pronged national sample of 9,000 adults. Contemporary China is on the cutting edge of a sexual revolution, with tremendous regional and generational differences that provide unparalleled natural experiments for analysis of the determinants and outcomes of sexual behavior. China is experiencing sharp annual increases in AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases. This study will provide a baseline from which to anticipate and track future changes, thus providing opportunity for a public health benefit as well as scholarly return. The lessons learned here will provide knowledge that is applicable to many societies. The study has three major objectives. (1) Baseline Study. Using a nationally representative probability sample, the study will provide a systematic description of the social organization of human sexuality in China. To make the study truly representative, it will include a special sample of migrants, a significant and growing proportion of the population not captured systematically by any surveys to date. (2) Social Constructionist Model. The project will elaborate and empirically document a social constructionist model of sexual behavior. It will explore the content and distribution of the social scripts according to which people understand sexual behavior. These scripts may be highly related to sexual well-being, including sexual satisfaction and overall happiness in relationships, domestic violence, and forced sex. (3) Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Patterns. The study hypothesizes that diseases do not spread randomly through the population but rather through a structure of social networks. Using biomarkers from urine samples and self-reports of prior exposure, the research will elaborate risk markers (age, gender, region, neighborhood) and more proximate determinants of who and how people get involved in STD networks. To provide ample cases for analysis, the study will include a special subsample of STD clinic patients. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen

Project Title: COMPUTERIZED STRATEGY FOR VIOLENCE SCREENING Principal Investigator & Institution: Renker, Paula Rinard. None; University of Akron 302 Buchtel Mall Akron, OH 44325 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUN-2003; Project End 31-MAY-2004 Summary: (provided by applicant): Violence screening and advocacy are essential practices for health care providers to empower pregnant abused women so that the devastating physical and emotional sequelae of abuse can be diminished. Despite directives from national health organizations, it is estimated that between 60%-95% of women are not screened for domestic violence during their pregnancies. Health care providers (including physicians and nurses) state that they omit screening because they lack confidence in its accuracy and helpfulness. Women may be hesitant to acknowledge abuse due to issues of confidentiality and fear of reprisal from the perpetrators. Because violence research has been predominantly conducted with women over the age of 20

20 Domestic Violence

from clinic populations, limited knowledge exists about adolescents and patients who receive care in private offices. Anonymous research studies with population-based samples that are economically, racially, age, and ethnically diverse are needed to identify the prevalence of abuse, prevalence of screening, and factors inhibiting women from identifying abuse to health care providers. Computerized interviews provide a promising, but untested, approach for anonymous screening in postpartum units which provide a rich opportunity to recruit large numbers of economically and age-diverse patients. The proposed research will survey 500 newly delivered women in postpartum units with anonymous computerized interviews to identify the prevalence and severity of pregnancy abuse and the prevalence of prenatal violence screening and provision of interventions. Two specific aims have been identified including 1) To establish statistical parameters of pregnancy abuse, abuse screening, and acknowledgement of abuse in a economically, ethnically, and age-diverse sample that will be used in the development of a future population study; and 2) Examine the efficacy of computerized anonymous data collection in a hospital setting for collecting information about domestic violence experienced during pregnancy and for conveying advocacy information. The results of the research will lay the statistical and methodological foundation for a populationbased study to measure prevalence of pregnancy abuse and assessment strategies. The long-term goal for this program of research is to refine and implement protocols, including computerized assessment and advocacy interventions, for systematic violence and abuse screening in all obstetrical and gynecological care settings.

Project Title: CONSEQUENCES OF PRIOR DRUG USE FOR YOUNG ADULTS Principal Investigator & Institution: Ellickson, Phyllis L.; Rand Corporation 1700 Main St Santa Monica, CA 90401 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-AUG-2000; Project End 30-JUN-2005 Summary: (Applicant's abstract): The period of life spanning the middle 20's and early 30's is critical in determining an individuals contribution to and functioning within the broader society. As individuals progress from early to mature young adulthood, they form and solidify their roles as spouses, parents, and workers. At the same time, eightyseven percent of men and 83 percent of women who will ever be drug abusers or drug dependent experience onset of problems before age 30, the vast majority of them between the ages of 20 and 30. Typically, substance use began when these individuals were adolescents. Capitalizing on the opportunities afforded by the unique RAND Adolescent/Young Adult database. We propose a program of research to determine how fluctuations in substance use and changes in social roles are related, focusing on two critical periods of young adulthood: age 24 (early young adulthood) and 30 (mature young adulthood). Our specific aims are to: 1) Explore the patterns of substance use, stability and change over a period of 17 years and examine the risk and protective factors for problem USE at ages 18, 24 and 30; 2) Test predictive relationships between adolescent and young adult substance USE and family formation and functioning at ages 24 and 30, including marriage and divorce, parenting, and domestic violence; and 3) Test predictive relationships between adolescent and young adult substance USE and educational attainment, occupational choice, and labor market participation at ages 24 and 30. Building on our past and current studies of substance use antecedents and consequences, we propose to supplement the existing panel data (which includes 8 waves between age 13 and 24) with a follow-up survey at age 30 plus secondary data on school and community factors at several time points. This panel covers individuals at all economic levels, persons from diverse racial/6thnic backgrounds, and school dropouts.

Studies 21

The resulting database will allow us to assess the unique contributions of individual and community factors to early and mature young adult behavior. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

Project Title: COST-EFFECTIVENESS INTERVENTIONS

OF

DOMESTIC

VIOLENCE

Principal Investigator & Institution: Zachary, Mary J.; Montefiore Medical Center (Bronx, Ny) Bronx, NY 104672490 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2002; Project End 29-SEP-2007 Summary: (provided by applicant) It is estimated that one in five women between the ages of 18 and 45 who seek care in primary care medical settings experience domestic violence. There are numerous guidelines from national medical associations that promote routine screening and intervention, and there is great public interest in this topic. But there is little evidence on how effectively care meets the needs of women experiencing domestic violence. This has led the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force to conclude that there is insufficient information to either recommend or to oppose universal screening for domestic violence in medical settings. The project goals are to: (1) investigate the effectiveness of domestic violence intervention components; (2) establish a methodology to define outcome measures for domestic violence interventions that incorporate patient, community, and expert viewpoints; (3) explore the feasibility of monitoring these outcomes measures in this population with a longitudinal cohort study; (4) based on outcomes of the first three goals, create a methodology for a cost-benefit analysis of domestic violence interventions; and (5) use the results of this project as the basis for an R01 application to investigate the costeffectiveness of primary care-based domestic violence interventions in a controlled clinical trial. Accomplishment of goal five will provide the foundation for the candidate's career development as an independent investigator. How can we best investigate the effectiveness of domestic violence interventions in primary care? The overall study design consists of several components, integrated to design an informed, cost-effective analysis of domestic violence interventions in primary care. These

Studies 23

components of the intervention are: (1) a pretest-post test, quasi-experimental investigation of six components of a domestic violence intervention; (2) a miniconference to define patient outcome measures; (3) a pilot test of the feasibility of administering outcome measures; (4) a descriptive cohort study of women receiving domestic violence services, including qualitative interviews; and (5) the development of a cost-effectiveness methodology. Constructs for patient outcome measures are: (1) domestic violence severity; (2) psychological sequelae; (3) quality of life; (4) correlates of well being; (5) health care utilization; and (6) costs. Process measures will determine whether abused women received appropriate care according to the intervention protocol. This study will provide essential, timely information to guide the medical community on how best to respond to develop domestic violence interventions and investigations on cost-effectiveness of domestic violence interventions in primary care.

Project Title: DEFINING FATHERHOOD AMONG DRUG DEPENDENT MEN Principal Investigator & Institution: Witte, Susan S. None; Columbia Univ New York Morningside 1210 Amsterdam Ave, Mc 2205 New York, NY 10027 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-FEB-2003; Project End 31-JAN-2005 Summary: (provided by applicant): The proposed R03 (PA 99-113) is designed to examine parenting attitudes and behaviors among African American and Latino fathers attending methadone maintenance treatment programs (MMTPs), and to explore how parenting attitudes and behaviors are affected by a father's current and past experiences with drug use and intimate partner violence (IPV). Substance use and parenting literature indicate that drug use compromises positive fathering and can constitute barriers to healthy father-child relationships. In addition, studies on IPV have revealed a significant problem among men being treated for drug abuse, and an overlap of IPV and child abuse occurring in families. However, to date, surprisingly few efforts have been made to study the role of fathers in violent families and no studies have examined how fathering attitudes and behaviors are affected by IPV among drug-dependent men. Concurrently, there is substantial and growing evidence suggesting that fathers have positive influences on their children, and that fathering may have positive effects on the well being of men in general. In light of research indicating that positive father effects may be countered by IPV and child abuse, promoting positive father-child relationships among violent men is extremely complex. Building on findings generated from ongoing NIDA studies, and guided by social learning theory and an ecological framework, the study will collect contextual narratives on the experience of fatherhood among 72 African American and Latino men in a New York City-based MMTP through focus groups and in-depth interviews. Through a contextually rich, in-depth understanding of the complex dynamics of these relationships afforded through qualitative inquiry, we aim to further inform and enhance paternal support interventions and services to promote healthy father-child involvement. The findings will also inform an R01 application aimed at the development and efficacy testing (using quantitative methods) of a parenting support intervention provided in drug treatment settings for a random sample of drug-dependent fathers and their families. Dr. Susan Witte will conduct the study under the guidance of Dr. Nabila EI-Bassel of the Social Intervention Group (SIG) at the Columbia University School of Social Work, and in consultation with Drs. Suniya Luthar and Peter Steinglass. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen

Principal Investigator & Institution: Koenig, Michael A. Population & Family Hlth Scis; Johns Hopkins University 3400 N Charles St Baltimore, MD 21218 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-MAR-2002; Project End 31-AUG-2004 Summary: (provided by investigator): Domestic violence represents the most pervasive form of violence to which women in developing countries are subjected. Despite increasing attention to this issue internationally over the last decade, understanding of the magnitude of domestic violence, its precipitating factors, and its consequences for women and their families in developing countries remains limited. Although anthropological evidence has suggested the importance of contextual and communitylevel factors in determining levels of domestic violence across cultures, quantitative research exploring the impact of such factors on the risk of violence to women remains limited. Domestic violence research in developing countries has also thus far focused almost exclusively upon women, with little understanding of the perspective of men-the principal aggressors. This study builds upon previous methodological and substantive work of the team of investigators to explore the determinants of domestic violence in North India, a setting characterized by low status of women and high levels of violence within marriage. Quantitative data for the study come from an existing data base survey of 6607 husbands, collected in five districts of Uttar Pradesh, India during 1995-96, and supplemented by district-level data on violent crime rates. Multi-level logit models will be employed to investigate the relative contributions of community and contextual factors (socioeconomic development, violent crime levels, and norms concerning gender roles) and household-level factors (socioeconomic status, women's status, family structure, and intergenerational exposure to violence) in explaining the risk of domestic violence in this setting. The study subsequently considers data from a matched sample of 4381 wives to explore the relationship between domestic violence and reproductive health outcomes. Using multivariate probit and multinomial logit models, we analyze the relationship between domestic violence and contraceptive adoption, contraceptive method choice, and pregnancy/live birth outcomes.

Project Title: DOMESTIC ABUSE IN PREGNANCY AND ADVERSE BIRTH OUTCOMES Principal Investigator & Institution: Saftlas, Audrey Frieda. Associate Professor; Epidemiology; University of Iowa Iowa City, IA 52242 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 01-JUN-2001; Project End 31-MAY-2005 Summary: Recent studies suggest that 2.4 % to 5.6 % of pregnant women are physically abused each year in the United States. Domestic violence is hypothesized to cause adverse pregnancy outcomes through two mechanisms: physical trauma and prenatal stress. To date, research into the association of domestic violence in pregnancy and adverse birth outcomes provides inconsistent evidence. Most studies, however, have been small in size, used an endpoint of low birthweight, and focused primarily on lowincome women, who are at highest risk of both domestic violence and adverse pregnancy outcomes. We propose to conduct a population-based case-control study to investigate the independent and joint effects of domestic violence and prenatal stress on the risk of preterm delivery (N=950) and intrauterine growth retardation (N=1210). In addition, patterns of abuse will be examined over three points in time (prepregnancy, pregnancy, postpartum) among control subjects (N=950) to determine if the pregnancy

Studies 25

or postpartum periods are high-risk times for domestic abuse. The influence of contextual factors, such as pregnancy intendedness, will also be examined. The study population, identified from the Iowa live birth certificate file, will be comprised of residents of three Iowa counties who deliver between August 1, 2001 and July 31, 2003. Domestic violence and prenatal stress will be assessed using well-tested, established instruments, including the revised Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS2) and the Prenatal Life Events Scale. Data will be collected using computer-assisted telephone interviews, covering the primary study exposures and risk factors for domestic violence and the two study outcomes. Subjects will be interviewed 3 to 6 months postpartum and compensated for their participation. Medical chart abstractions will be conducted to validate case definitions and document prenatal care variables, medical history, and pregnancy complications. With at least 80 % power, the study will be able to detect increased risks of 2.0 for the least prevalent exposure, domestic violence. This study will be the first to examine the effect of prenatal stress in conjunction with domestic violence on adverse pregnancy outcomes, and offers a unique combination of methodological and conceptual strengths to address these issues.

Project Title: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AMONG COUPLES SEEKING THERAPY Principal Investigator & Institution: Simpson, Lorelei E. Psychology; University of California Los Angeles 10920 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 1200 Los Angeles, CA 90024 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-SEP-2002; Project End 31-AUG-2003 Summary: (provided by applicant): Domestic violence is a serious and prevalent problem in our society today. Increasingly, however, there is a recognition that all violence is not the same. Johnson (1995) described two types of domestic violence, common couple violence, which is mild, mutual and does not increase over time, and patriarchal terrorism, which fits the common conceptualization of battering. His research, and that of other scientists examining violence among community samples, newlyweds, and couples seeking therapy, suggest that common couple violence is the more frequent of the two, and occurs primarily in the populations described above. Despite this, most research on the treatment of domestic violence are based upon theories of battering, which may not be appropriate for couples experiencing milder levels of violence. The current study will examine therapy outcomes among couples experiencing very mild levels of violence, or common couple violence, to determine if traditional couple treatments that do not address violence specifically can effectively treat such couples. It will also examine the outcomes of a group of couples who were excluded from a clinical trial because of moderate to severe violence and explore the progression of marital satisfaction, marital status, treatment seeking, and domestic violence among them.

We plan to address a number of important conceptual and methodological limitations of existing research

26 Domestic Violence

that constrain our ability to interpret or generalize knowledge on this topic. In addition, we will examine pathways by which domestic violence is theorized to exert its detrimental effects on children; and, importantly, we will evaluate the contribution of domestically violent men to child problems (beyond the effects of their domestic violence). Participants will be 1000 children aged 7-9 years, their mothers, and mothers' partners (in families in which mothers and partners live together). The sample will be comprised of three demographically comparable groups. The first group will include 400 children whose mothers sought shelter because of recent domestic violence. The second group will consist of 400 children whose mothers experienced recent domestic violence but have not sought shelter. The third group will include 200 children not exposed to domestic violence. Each family will participate in 3 assessments over a 12month period; the assessments will be spaced by approximately 6 months. The assessments will include measurements of domestic violence, proximal context variables directly related to the domestic violence, family milieu variables, child responses hypothesized to mediate the relation between domestic violence and child problems, maternal and partner emotional functioning and parenting, and children's aggressive behavior and internalizing problems.

Project Title: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OUTCOMES FOR BEHAVIORAL COUPLE THERAPY Principal Investigator & Institution: O'farrell, Timothy J. Associate Chief of Psychology; Psychiatry; Harvard University (Medical School) Medical School Campus Boston, MA 02115 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-MAR-2000; Project End 28-FEB-2003 Summary: This R21 application targets the general objective of "identifying and assessing the effectiveness and outcomes of alcohol-related treatment." This project will use data from two prior NIAAA projects to study domestic violence outcomes after behavioral couples therapy (BCT). Although research shows a strong association between domestic violence and alcohol problems and 50-60% violence prevalence in the year before alcohol treatment, violence as an outcome after treatment had not been studied until the PI's recent VA-funded pilot study. This study examine domestic violence before and after BCT for 88 married/cohabiting male alcoholic veterans and used a non-alcoholic comparison sample. Results showed that male-to-female violence, which had a 64% prevalence rate in the year before BCT, was significantly reduced in the two years after BCT, and was nearly eliminated with alcohol abstinence. Among remitted alcoholics, domestic violence turned to the level of experienced by families without alcohol problems. The OVERALL GOALS of this R21 project are to replicate with a larger, more varied sample of males and to extend to female alcoholic patients our initial pilot study findings of dramatically reduced violence after BCT; and to learn more about factors related to violence after BCT by examining a treatment process

Studies 27

model that emphasizes the role played by abstinence and by various aspects of treatment involvement during and after BCT. The primary objective is to study male-tofemale violence in the relationships of male alcoholic patients using data already collected at baseline, and for a 2-year follow-up period from 309 married/cohabiting male alcoholic patients and their female partners who entered a BCT treatment program for alcoholism as part of two earlier projects funded by NIAAA to evaluate the effectiveness of BCT. This primary objective aims (1) to replicate and extend our initial pilot study findings of reduced violence after BCT, adding an emphasis on the role of treatment involvement and abstinence in these outcomes, and (2) to test explanatory models for domestic violence before and after BCT. The secondary objective is to study male-to-female violence in the relationships of female alcoholic patients using data from the two prior NIAAA projects on 105 married/cohabiting female alcoholic patients and their male partners. This objectives aims (1) to extend our initial pilot study findings to female alcoholic patients and (2) to explore explanatory models for domestic violence before and after BCT among female alcoholic patients.

Project Title: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SCREENING: EXAMINING PROVIDER PRACTICE Principal Investigator & Institution: Stayton, Catherine D.; Individual Award--Stayton, Catherine D 116 Morgan St, #243 Stamford, CT 06905 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 05-SEP-2001; Project End 30-APR-2002 Summary: (provided by applicant) Since the early 199Os, organized nursing and medicine have called upon their providers to address domestic violence as a health problem, beginning with the routine screening of patients. The specific message in prenatal care, for instance, is to screen all pregnant women for domestic violence once per trimester. A comprehensive look at the translation of these professional guidelines into practice has not been undertaken. While considerable research has examined what impedes provider screening for domestic violence, little research has investigated what facilitates provider screening. In fact, as Rodriguez and colleagues (1999) observed in a recent research article, "it is unclear how often and under what circumstances providers screen." Understanding these circumstances is the prelude to reducing violence and injuries and improving the health of abused women. Through a case study of an urban prenatal clinic that has made domestic violence a priority issue, this proposed dissertation research will examine the institutionalization of a health care response to domestic violence. In particular, the study will address the following research questions: 1) What are the domestic violence screening rates across prenatal care, and how do they vary? 2) What patient factors explain these screening rates throughout prenatal care? and 3) What strategies for addressing domestic violence do providers report, and how did these strategies evolve? The study will employ a mixed methodology design. Qualitative interviews with clinic providers will render thick description of the processes at play in the assessment of and follow-up to domestic violence in patients. Quantitative analysis of medical record data will test hypotheses about patient conditions, both clinical and non clinical, that cue provider screening for domestic violence.

28 Domestic Violence

Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 01-SEP-2001; Project End 31-AUG-2003 Summary: Although studies have documented high rates of undetected domestic violence (DV) among primary care patients, few interventions have been shown to improve physician screening for DV. Multimodal educational outreach which has been shown to improve physician performance in areas other than DV may be an effective tool for training physicians to screen and manage DV in primary care. Aims: 1) To evaluate the feasibility of an on-site multimodal intervention designed to improve physician screening and management of DV in primary care. 2) To evaluate the impact of the intervention on physician attitudes, knowledge, behavior and office systems regarding detection and management of DV. 3) To evaluate the feasibility of using simulated patients to assess physician skills for screening and managing DV. METHODS: Multimodal educational outreach to physicians regarding appropriate screening and management of DV will be piloted with 4 physicians. A trained DV detailer will make periodic office visits to educate the physicians and staff regarding appropriate screening and management of DV. The feasibility and effectiveness of this approach will be evaluated using quantitative and qualitative methods to include physicians and staff, DV detailer notes, and review of audiotapes of detailing sessions, SP visits, and physician and staff interviews. SIGNIFICANCE AND ORIGINALITY: Domestic violence has a serious impact on society. The investigators provide a substantive review of the literature, which among other things, documents that detection of domestic violence in the primary care clinical encounter is all but nonexistent. The investigators proposed a complex but well thought out educational intervention which uses proven educational methodologies to attempt to change physician attitudes and behaviors as well as office practices in the identification and management of domestic violence.

Project Title: DRUG USE AND OTHER RISK FACTORS IN ASIAN MALE BATTERERS Principal Investigator & Institution: Jin, Xiaochun; Inst/Advanced Psychol Studies; Adelphi University Garden City, NY 11530 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 20-MAR-2002 Summary: (Provided by Applicant): This study examines substance use and four other generic risk factors that are based on contrasting though not necessarily mutually exclusive perspectives of marital violence as well as three risk factors that are more unique to Asian Americans' experiences of immigration, acculturation, and home cultures, in court-referred Asian male batterers versus two control groups, i.e., maritally discordant and maritally satisfied non-violent Asian men (N=300). It is hypothesized that 1) Asian male batterers, in comparison to control subjects, have higher substance use; 2) they are more likely the victims of early exposure to domestic violence; 3) they are more likely to have insecure attachment styles; 4) they are more likely to approve marital violence; and 5) they are more likely to exhibit hostile attributional biases. Moreover, 6) Asian male batterers are more likely to report their spouses as verbally assertive and resent their spouses' verbal assertion; 7) they are more likely to have experienced high stress and low familial support; and 8) they are more likely to have experienced power change, due to immigration. By simultaneously examining substance use and the other risk factors, the findings of this study will not only provide information as to the severity and frequency of drug and alcohol use among Asian male batterers vs. control subjects but also address the relative importance of substance use and other variables in understanding Asian American men's marital aggression. In

addition, this culturally sensitive multivariate model may also help to explain why domestic violence is a serious problem and can be more lethal in Asian American communities, a hidden crisis that has not been addressed in the current literature.

Associate Professor; Mc Lean Hospital (Belmont, Ma) Belmont, MA 02478 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUN-2003; Project End 31-MAY-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): Emotional abuse is a widespread, elusive and insidious problem. Psychiatric disorders emerge through the interaction of genetic and experiential factors. Childhood maltreatment is a major experimental risk factor for the later development of mood, anxiety, dissociate, substance abuse, and personality problems. Emotional abuse in particular appears to be among the most prevalent forms of maltreatment, even more pervasive than physical and sexual abuse. Much remains to be discovered about the neurobiologcal consequences of emotional abuse in the absence of other forms of maltreatment. This proposal aims to test the main hypothesis that adults who have been exposed to emotional maltreatment during childhood have abnormalities in brain regions that regulate emotion, aggression and cognition. Vulnerable targets include the corpus callosum, cerebellar vermis, neocortex, and amygdala. Four groups of 30 subjects (15M/15F) will be studied; those with no history of childhood abuse; those with a history of verbal abuse; those who visually witnessed domestic violence; and those who were exposed to verbal abuse and who witnessed domestic violence. Structure and function of the regions of interest will be assessed using morphometric MRI, diffusion tensor imaging, functional MRI (T2 relaxometry) and MR spectroscopy to determine N-acetylaspartate to creatine ratios as an indicator of neuronal density and functioning. We will test the hypotheses that emotional abuse adversely effects the structural development of these regions, and results in functional consequences. Further, we predict that combined exposure to verbal abuse and witnessing domestic violence will have a greater impact than exposure to one or the other alone. Finally, the proposed model predicts that verbal aggression will exert greater effects on left hemisphere structures while visual exposure to domestic violence will exert greater effects on right hemisphere structures.

Project Title: EMOTIONAL REACTIVITY OF INTIMATE PARTNER ABUSERS Principal Investigator & Institution: Babcock, Julia C. Psychology; University of Houston 4800 Calhoun Rd Houston, TX 77004 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-AUG-2003; Project End 31-JUL-2004 Summary: (provided by applicant): Intimate partner violence is a serious health problem in the United States, affecting as many as 6 million women annually (Browne, 1993; Straus & Gelles, 1986). When these assaults are reported to the police, the perpetrator usually escapes prosecution by attending one of the many battering intervention programs that have proliferated in the community. Unfortunately, these interventions, founded on ideology and clinical intuition, have been shown to be relatively ineffective at preventing further assault (Babcock, Green & Robie, under review). The goal of this proposed study is to provide basic research into the emotional reactivity of batterers that may guide the development of new, targeted intervention strategies. The proposed

30 Domestic Violence

research investigates correlates of emotional reactivity among men who physically abuse their partners. Based on a synthesis of two typologies of batterers (Gottman et al., 1995; Holtzworth-Munroe & Stuart, 1994), autonomic reactivity, severity of violence, and dimensions of borderline and antisocial personality features will be examined within 3 groups: a low-level violent sample, a severely violent sample, and a comparison group of distressed/nonviolent men. In this study we assess autonomic reactivity during 3 emotional, interpersonal tasks: 1) a facial affect recognition task, 2) a standardized anger induction, 3) a naturalistic conflict discussion with the partner. A fourth task will assess attention to a non-emotional stimulus. The proposed research is guided by three specific aims: 1. To test for specific correlates of emotional reactivity among batterers with different levels of intimate partner abuse. 2. To disentangle the measurement difficulties inherent in categorical typologies of batterers by examining physiological reactivity and personality disorder features as continuous measures in order to identify which features of borderline and antisocial personality disorder are related to emotional hypo- or hyper-reactivity. Ultimately, this basic research may inform the development of novel assessment tools and treatments for domestic violence perpetrators. We anticipate a) finding basic physiological differences among men who evidence specific personality disorder features which may elucidate differential treatment needs, and b) developing new, useful measures to assess dimensions of important personality features in applied treatment settings.

Project Title: ENDOCRINE CHANGES AND TREATMENT OF CONDUCT PROBLEMS Principal Investigator & Institution: Dorn, Lorah D. Associate Professor of Nursing & Psychia; Health Promotion & Development; University of Pittsburgh at Pittsburgh 350 Thackeray Hall Pittsburgh, PA 15260 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2000; Project End 31-AUG-2003 Summary: Antisocial behavior in youth is a growing problem in our society. Childhood antisocial behaviors (e.g., conduct problems) can become chronic as reflected in delinquency, adult interpersonal and domestic violence and other criminal behavior. A pattern of chronic child, adolescent and adult antisocial behavior weighs heavily on society with respect to the high cost of treatment, pain and suffering for the victims and their family, and even loss of lives. The majority of studies of antisocial behavior have focused on individual psychological factors, or peer and neighborhood influence. Few studies considered physiological aspects of antisocial behavior in children, in spite of the growing evidence linking physiological processes and crime in adults. The aims of the study are: (1) To examine the relationship between gonadal and adrenal hormone concentrations and conduct problems in children, (2) To examine whether gonadal and adrenal hormones moderate the effect of treatment on conduct problems, and (3) To examine whether treatment of conduct problems alters gonadal and adrenal hormones of children with conduct problems. In response to the NINR RFA, "Clinical Trials: Collaborations for Nursing Research," encouraging a link with an existing clinical trial, we will take advantage of a unique opportunity to assess the effect of a behavior intervention on hormone concentrations in a treatment trial to reduce severe conduct problems in sample of 6 to 11-year-old boys and girls (N = 158). There is random assignment to treatment conducted in either the experimental (EXP) community setting (home, school, neighborhood) or the clinic (CLIN). Services are provided by trained clinicians who administer specialized treatment protocols that address problems across participants (child, parent, teachers) and contexts (home, community). A comparison

group for treatment as usual (TAU) in a community mental health center also will be included. Our proposed methodology of adding hormones enhances the field by addressing limitations of the few previous studies of children and conduct problems utilizing physiological measures. We anticipate that findings will contribute to further understanding of the neurophysiology of conduct problems in youth. The project is unique in that it is longitudinal and it examines for the first time, the effect of behavioral interventions on physiological processes.

Project Title: ENHANCING AGENCY RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Principal Investigator & Institution: D'avolio, Deborah A. None; Boston College 140 Commonwealth Ave Newton, MA 02467 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 22-SEP-2002 Summary: A program of research and clinical study will be designed to explore the barriers to domestic violence (d.v.) prevention and intervention and to enhance the health care system response. Research to date suggests that the current approach of education and protocol development has not been effective to ensure widespread adoption of domestic violence intervention. Recently, some of the health care provider barriers to intervention have been uncovered. It appears that health care providers decide on an individual level to screen for d.v. and intervene. This proposal will assess the institutional factors that can enhance or hinder domestic violence intervention. In the proposed study, screening protocols for domestic violence will be implemented in an ambulatory setting in a health maintenance organization. The personal, environmental, and situational factors that promote or hinder intervention will be analyzed. A review of institutional resources, policies, protocols and clinical practice will be performed. The providers will be interviewed to assess their concepts of barriers to intervention. By applying the theory and research skills gained in the doctoral program and applying these skills to the interdisciplinary enviroment of an ambulatory setting, the applicant will be well prepared to make empirically based contributions to theory development that may improve care of victims of domestic violence.

VIOLENCE

Principal Investigator & Institution: Levesque, Deborah A.; Pro-Change Behavior Systems, Inc. 2 Chafee Rd Kingston, RI 02881 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 27-SEP-2000; Project End 28-FEB-2005 Summary: (provided by applicant): Male-to-female partner violence poses a major threat to the physical and emotional well being of women. Research assessing the efficacy of court-mandated domestic violence treatment programs has yielded disappointing results. A major problem with mandated treatment is that it tends to be standardized and 'one-size-fits-all,' neglecting individual differences in motivation level and readiness to change. We propose to individualize services by developing and testing a Transtheoretical Model (TTM) based intervention tailored to individual stage of readiness to end the violence. In Phase I the objective was to develop a stage-based computer-administered multimedia expert system intervention and self-help manual designed to be administered as an adjunct to traditional batterer treatment. In Phase II, the objective is to complete development of the intervention materials, translate them into Spanish, and assess their efficacy in a randomized clinical trial. English- and

32 Domestic Violence

Spanish-speaking domestic violence treatment clients will be randomly assigned at treatment intake to the experimental (n=350) or control condition (n=350). Efficacy will be assessed by comparing the intervention and control groups on number of batterer treatment sessions attended, partner reports of recidivism, re-arrests for domestic assault, and several secondary outcome measures.

Project Title: EXPLICIT MEMORY IN CHILDREN EXPOSED TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Principal Investigator & Institution: Rea, Jacqueline G. Psychology; University of Denver Box 101562 Denver, CO 80208 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 16-JUN-2003; Project End 15-JUN-2005 Summary: (provided by applicant): While considerable research has been devoted to understanding the biological and neuropsychological sequelae of trauma exposure in adults, little research has been conducted to examine these processes in traumatized children. The primary aim of the proposed study is to test the relation between children's exposure to interparental aggression (IPA), posttraumatic symptomatology and physiological arousal, and explicit memory. It is hypothesized that children exposed to IPA will show poorer explicit memory than non-exposed children for neutral information presented in a neutral learning context. Within the exposed group, it is hypothesized that posttraumatic symptomatology and physiological arousal will partially mediate the relation between IPA exposure and memory performance. The proposed study will also examine children's explicit memory in an IPA-primed learning context. It is expected that children exposed to IPA will show greater physiological reactivity than control children in an IPA-primed condition and that, within the exposed group, physiological reactivity will mediate the relation between IPA exposure and memory performance. Two groups of children (aged 7-11}, and their mothers will participate: 1) children exposed to IPA and 2) control children, matched on important demographic variables. If hypotheses are supported, children exposed to IPA could be at significant risk for problems with learning and memory. As such, early identification and intervention programs could be designed to prevent the development of such problems. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen

Project Title: IMPACT OF DOMESTIC VIOLOENCE ON HEALTH OF OLDER WOMEN Principal Investigator & Institution: Mouton, Charles P. Associate Professor; Family and Community Medicine; University of Texas Hlth Sci Ctr San Ant 7703 Floyd Curl Dr San Antonio, TX 78229 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 30-SEP-1997; Project End 31-JUL-2002 Summary: According to the applicant, with over 8-12 million women of all ages at risk, domestic violence (DV) is a major problem in the U.S. An estimated 1.5-2 million older persons annually are victims of Dv, most of whom are older women. While studies have been done on the psychological effects and physical systems associated with DV, little research has been done on its overall health effects. Also, the long- term effects of abuse on the health of older women is largely unknown. The goal of the proposed project is to determine the effect of DV on the health status of postmenopausal women 50-79 years of age. To achieve this aim, the applicant plans to determine the baseline prevalence of DV in t his cohort and examine the association of DV on the overall health status in women. He will also examine the effect of DV on the mortality from cardiovascular disease. To examine the effects of DV on health status, the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36 (SF-36) scores will be compared for those exposed to DV with those who were not.

Project Title: IMPACT OF VIOLENCE ON WOMENS DRUG USE AND AIDS RISK Principal Investigator & Institution: Britton, Brandy M.; Institute for Women and Girls Health Res Girls Health Research Ellicott City, MD 21042 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 15-SEP-1997; Project End 30-JUN-2002 Summary: (Applicant's Abstract) HIV infection among women in the U.S. has risen sharply over the past decade. Currently, women are the fastest growing group of HIV infected individuals. HIV and AIDS are spreading fastest among women of color, in particular black women in the U. S. Women become infected predominately through their risky sexual and needle sharing practices related to injection drug use and crack smoking. Interpersonal violence against women, including childhood sexual abuse, rape, and domestic violence are also emerging as major health problems for women in the U.S. Recent research has pointed to a possible link between interpersonal violence and women's drug use and risky HIV practices. The proposed research will examine the link between interpersonal violence and women's drug use and HIV risk and will build upon a recently completed pilot project of 260 women in the Baltimore area. The proposed research is longitudinal in nature. Six hundred black and white women between the ages of 18 and 44 from the Baltimore area will be interviewed annually during the three and a half year study period. Three subsamples of women will be included in the study: an addict sample of 200 injection drugs users and/or crack smokers; a victim sample of 200 women who have experienced at least one of the three types of interpersonal violence; and a stratified area probability sample of 200 women from diverse socio-economic backgrounds. Interviews will be both quantitative and qualitative in nature. A Traumatic Stress/Support model will serve as the theoretical

34 Domestic Violence

basis for the quantitative portion of the study. Several hypotheses regarding the interrelationships between demographic characteristics, PTSD symptoms, social support, self-esteem, overall life stress, revictimization, and women's drug use and risky sexual and needle sharing practices will be tested using multiple and logistic regression and structural equation techniques. Open-ended life-history interviews, focus groups, and participant observation in and around the social worlds of drug-addicted women will serve as the basis for qualitative study data. Qualitative data will be analyzed using constant comparative and grounded theory techniques. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

Principal Investigator & Institution: Taylor, Janette Y. None; University of Iowa Iowa City, IA 52242 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 30-SEP-2000; Project End 31-AUG-2003 Summary: The primary goal of this training fellowship is to prepare for a research career as a successful independent investigator in women's health research. Specifically, this training will provide me an opportunity to: 1) engage in extensive study and research training focused on the development and evaluation of ethnic sensitive interventions with women survivors of domestic violence, and 2) conduct an independent research project through the guided mentorship of Dr. Toni Tripp-Reimer, PhD, FAAN, Dr. Jacquelyn Campbell, PhD, FAAN, and Ms. Susan Schechter, MSW. The specific aims of the study are: 1) To determine the effect of a multi-modal intervention (music and account-making) in a group setting with incarcerated women on psychological, social and behavioral domains. 2) To determine the retention of post-intervention gains. 3) To describe the women's subjective evaluation of the interventions. The hypotheses tested are: 1A. Dual intervention groups (ethnomusic therapy and account-making combined) will show the greatest gains on psychological (depression, anxiety, thought intrusion, self-esteem), social (social isolation), and behavioral (alcohol/drug abuse, crime, re/victimization) measures, relative to account-making only groups. 1B. Accountmaking in racially homogeneous groups will produce significantly greater gains compared to a racially heterogeneous group. The specific aims will be accomplished through the triangulation of self-reported measures, focus groups, and interviews. This study will employ a quasi-experimental design with random and non-random assignment to experimental comparison and control groups. This training fellowship will also prepare me to fulfill my long-term objectives, as a nurse researcher, which are to: 1) conduct research focusing on under-represented populations in research; 2) combine active research pursuits with teaching in an academic setting; and 3) make contributions that advance nursing science, enhance nursing practice, and provide mentored research opportunities for future nurse scholars.

Project Title: INTERDISCIPLINARY MENTORING IN WOMEN'S HEALTH Principal Investigator & Institution: Berenson, Abbey B. Obstetrics and Gynecology; University of Texas Medical Br Galveston 301 University Blvd Galveston, TX 77555 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-MAR-2003; Project End 29-FEB-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): This midcareer investigator award application is designed to support the continued efforts of Dr. Abbey Berenson, M.D. (the "Candidate"), in conducting and mentoring young investigators in patient-oriented research. Dr. Berenson is an established expert in the areas of contraception and sexual abuse. In addition, she has published in top-tier journals on domestic violence, substance abuse, and psychosocial issues related to women's health. She has been federally funded since 1994 and is currently the PI of a R01 grant entitled "Effect of Hormonal Contraception on Bone Mineral Density." This grant, which is funded by NICHD, will support her research for the next 5 years. Two additional specific aims have been added to this stuy since it was funded; these aims will increase the amount of data collected and will assist in the mentoring of new clinical investigators. Funding of this K24 award will allow Dr. Berenson to be relieved from a number of clinical and administrative duties, so she can focus her career on patient-oriented research and the mentoring of six trainees over the course of the grant period. She will train individuals to conduct patient-oriented research in the field of women's health utilizing an already established and effective interdisciplinary team of experts. This mentoring plan will provide 3 years of intensive postresidency training in patient-oriented research. During the first year, trainees will be taught how to conduct literature searches, design a research proposal, and locate potential sources of funding. In years 2 and 3, Dr. Berenson will work with each mentee on their writing skills and teach him/her how to write manuscripts and grant applications. In addition, mentees will learn to conduct statistical analyses, present research at national meetings, build networks, and maintain continuous funding. Ultimately, this plan will allow the trainees to establish independent careers in patient-oriented research. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen

Project Title: INTERPERSONAL CONTEXT OF HIV RISK IN IMPOVERISHED WOMEN Principal Investigator & Institution: Tucker, Joan S.; Rand Corporation 1700 Main St Santa Monica, CA 90401 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 04-APR-2003; Project End 30-SEP-2004 Summary: (provided by investigator): HIV/AIDS is a critical public health problem in the lives of impoverished housed and homeless women. However, the determinants of HIV risk and prevention behaviors (e.g., condom use) are not fully understood in this population, although likely include drug use and victimization by sexual partners. To more fully understand the determinants of HIV risk and prevention behaviors, it is imperative to understand the social context within which these behaviors occur for impoverished women-an environment potentially involving the experience of violence and power imbalances in their relationships that may erode the assertiveness and communication skills necessary for women to protect themselves from HIV. The goal of this study is to contribute to research knowledge of these issues by conducting analyses of data collected as part of the "Drug Abuse, Violence, and HIV/AIDS in Impoverished Women Study," the first study to investigate associations among these problems in sizable samples of homeless and impoverished housed women. African American, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic white women between 18-55 years and residing in randomly selected homeless shelters and low-income housing units in Los Angeles County were administered a baseline structured interview (N = 898) and 6-month follow-up interview (anticipated N = 709). The work proposed here represents a continuation of effort by members of the research team, and has the following specific aims: 1) To investigate the temporal associations of women's experiences of drug abuse and victimization by sexual partners with their engagement in HIV risk and prevention behaviors, as well as examine the extent to which these associations are mediated by women's sense of control within their sexual relationships and assertiveness in HIV selfprotection; 2) To determine whether women's use of condoms with their male partners differs by relationship characteristics (e.g., relationship type, length, and commitment) and explore reasons for these differences; and 3) To identify similarities and differences in HIV risk and prevention behaviors and their interpersonal and intrapersonal determinants across housing status groups (housed, homeless) and racial/ethnic groups (non-Hispanic white, African American, Hispanic).

Project Title: INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE SCREENING - METHODS EVALUATION Principal Investigator & Institution: Lewis-O'connor, Annie; None; Boston College 140 Commonwealth Ave Newton, MA 02467 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 09-SEP-2003; Project End 08-SEP-2006 Summary: (provided by applicant): The purpose of this correlational comparative study, using both qualitative and quantitative methods, is to explore methods of screening mothers (pediatric caregivers) for intimate violence (IPV) in pediatric health care settings and to examine the perceptions of pediatric health care providers and pediatric caregivers about IPV screening. Researchers to date report that women in pediatric settings do in fact want to be screened (Dowd, et al. 2002). In this proposed study, I will seek to answer the following research questions: (1) Using the current "gold standard" tools for screening for IPV in adult health settings, which method of administration: face-to-face, pencil and paper, or touch screen computer yields the highest positive

Studies 37

screening rates in pediatric settings? (2) Which method of screening do pediatric providers and caregivers prefer? To answer these questions, I will create a protocol for screening pediatric caregivers (mothers) with each of the three methods. Focus groups with pediatric providers prior to collecting data and with mothers following the administration of the three screening methods will elicit their perceptions on screening in this setting. The results will guide screening and intervention by pediatric health care providers, assisting mothers who experience IPV and their children who may be witnessing violence.

Principal Investigator & Institution: Harris, Christine R. Ctr for Human Info Processing; University of California San Diego 9500 Gilman Dr, Dept. 0934 La Jolla, CA 92093 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-JUN-2000; Project End 31-MAY-2004 Summary: (adapted from investigator's abstract): Emotional reactions to perceived and real romantic infidelity have been implicated as a leading cause of homicide in many human cultures. Jealousy also plays a role in domestic violence and family breakup. Current research on jealousy has centered on Darwinian analyses that view jealousy as a specific innate adaptation that takes different forms in men and women. According to this perspective, men are innately disposed to react with hostility to indications of sexual infidelity, while women are innately disposed to react most intensely to indications of emotional infidelity. The research proposed here will critically examine this theory and contrast it with alternative accounts emphasizing social cognition. Psychophysiological reactions to jealousy-eliciting situations will be examined in detail to elucidate sex differences and the nature of the emotion of jealousy itself. Whereas almost all research pertaining to jealousy and infidelity has focused on one aspect of mating psychology at a time, the proposed studies will explore the interrelation of jealousy with other individual differences, including sexual experience, relationship history and sociosexuality. The proposed work will also depart from the exclusive focus on hypothetical responses by collecting and analyzing a large group of subjects' descriptions of emotional reactions to actual incidents of infidelity in their lives. The sample will include a wide age range of adults of homosexual and heterosexual orientations, allowing us to test the divergent predictions of the two theories concerning jealousy in homosexual individuals.

Project Title: LONG-TERM HEALTHCARE EFFECTS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Principal Investigator & Institution: Thompson, Robert S.; Center for Health Studies 1730 Minor Ave, Ste 1600 Seattle, WA 98101 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 09-JUL-2002; Project End 30-APR-2006 Summary: Domestic violence (DV) is a major societal problem, impacting up to 25% of women in their lifetime. However, knowledge of the impact of DV over time on healthcare utilization and costs and on health status is only rudimentary. This knowledge gap is a major barrier to research on outcome and effectiveness of DV programs in health settings. Objective: Assess the longitudinal impact of DV over an 11year period on the healthcare cost and utilization of adult women and their children. For the women, assess the effects of DV on health status and risk profiles (e.g. excessive drinking). Secondary objective: estimate DV prevalence among men and seniors. Site:

38 Domestic Violence

Group Health Cooperative (GHC), a large HMO in Washington and Idaho. Methods: Telephone survey a random sample of 6667 women 18-64 years who have been GHC enrollees over the last 3 years to establish the presence or absence of DV and to measure health status, social functioning, and health risk outcomes. Link the survey data to automated cost and utilization data. Compare longitudinally cohorts of women with and without DV (and their children) on healthcare utilization and costs. Make similar comparisons for health status, social functioning, and health risk outcomes. Main outcomes: Healthcare costs, utilization rates, utilization patterns (from ICD codes), physical health status, mental health status, social functioning, and health risk profiles (e.g. excessive alcohol consumption). Major study benefits: The study will: 1) Use a population-based survey to identify female DV victims and a comparison group of women not exposed to DV; 2) Encompass all levels of care from hospital to primary care; 3) Follow female victims (and their children) and a comparison group of non-DV victims longitudinally over an 11-year period to assess the impact of DV on healthcare costs and utilization; 4) Determine the effect of DV on physical and mental health status, social functioning, and health risk profiles; 5) Estimate the prevalence of DV by type, duration and frequency among women and also among men and seniors.

Project Title: MET FOR ALCOHOL PROBLEMS IN PARTNER VIOLENT MEN Principal Investigator & Institution: Murphy, Christopher M. Associate Professor; Psychology; University of Maryland Balt Prof School Baltimore, MD 21201 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 15-SEP-2003; Project End 31-JUL-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): This revised application involves a controlled clinical trial of Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) for alcohol problems among partner violent men. Prior research has indicated that alcohol problems are common among partner violent men, alcohol problems impede compliance with and response to partner violence interventions, and unresolved alcohol problems are a major risk factor for continued partner abuse in this population. In the proposed study, 278 individuals who present for domestic violence counseling at a community-based treatment agency, and who screen positive for risky alcohol consumption or alcohol involvement in domestic violence incidents, will be randomly assigned to receive either 4 weekly sessions of MET, or a control condition consisting of 4 weekly sessions of Alcohol Education (AE). MET involves extensive personalized feedback on alcohol consumption and related risks and problems. MET is designed to stimulate a self-directed change process. Subsequent to completing one of these interventions, all participants will be assigned to agency treatment-as-usual for domestic abuse, and participants with severe substance use disorders, as assessed by the agency program staff, will be referred for additional substance use treatment at a community agency. Outcomes will be assessed through self-report and collateral partner report of alcohol and drug consumption, partner abuse, and related variables, with assessments conducted at baseline, post- 4 session intervention, and quarterly follow-ups for one year after the alcohol interventions. The investigation will examine the efficacy of MET in reducing alcohol consumption, reducing physical and emotional abuse of relationship partners, and enhancing subsequent treatment participation and help seeking. Additional analyses will test explanatory models of the effect of MET on partner violence that include alcohol use and involvement in domestic violence treatment as mediating variables.

Project Title: MULTIMEDIA DIVORCE EDUCATION Principal Investigator & Institution: Davis, Sean M.; Inflexxion, Inc. Newton, MA 02464 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 06-SEP-2001; Project End 31-AUG-2004 Summary: This application proposes development of KidCare for Co-Parents, an interactive, multimedia based prevention program designed to help parents facilitate their children's adjustment to parental divorce or separation. Court mandated parenting education programs have become increasingly commonplace in recent years. Although these programs are enjoying widespread national support, a number of problems with them nave been identified, including lack of tailoring, inadequate follow-up, limited accessibility, inconsistent delivery, insensitivity to domestic violence, and minimal experimental evaluation. As part of a larger NIDA-funded suite of parenting education programs currently under development at Inflexxion, KidCare for Co-Parents is designed to address these known limitations. The program will consist of an interactive, multimedia-based parenting education curriculum, a companion Website, and a takehome handbook. Phase I involved proof of concept research to demonstrate product feasibility. Phase II will involve production and usability testing of a fully functional KidCare for Co-Parents, as well as a field test and acceptance study to compare program efficacy and satisfaction levels relative to currently mandated parenting education options. If proven effective, court-systems and parents alike would likely view KidCare for Co-Parents as a desirable and cost-effective means of reducing the well-known risks associated with divorce and other forms of parental separation.

Project Title: NEURAL CORRELATES OF AGGRESSION IN RHESUS MONKEYS Principal Investigator & Institution: Rilling, James K. Psychiatry and Behavioral Scis; Emory University 1784 North Decatur Road Atlanta, GA 30322 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 31-JUL-2001 Summary: Male aggression in the context of sexual competition is ubiquitous in the animal kingdom. Humans prove to be no exception to this generalization. Sexual competition and its attendent emotions (e.g., sexual jealousy) appear to represent a common motive for spouse abuse, physical assault, and homicide in our own species. The overall objective of this research project is to investigate the neurobiological basis of primate male aggression in the context of sexual competition for females. The four specific aims for this project are: 1) use Positron Emission Tomography to characterize the neural response of male rhesus monkeys to a competitive mating context that frequently provokes aggression in socially housed animals, 2) characterize the hormonal response of adult male and female rhesus monkeys to a competitive mating context that frequently provokes aggression in social groups, 3) examine the correlation of brain activity in various anatomical regions of interest with both hormone levels and measures of agonistic behavior, 4) describe the effects of the anti-androgen flutamide on the pattern of brain glucose metabolism, the level of agonistic responding, and the hormone levels observed in aims 1 and 2. Ten groups of three adult rhesus monkeys will be newly formed for this study. Each group will consist of an ovariectomized, estrogentreated female and two adult males. PET images of regional cerebral glucose metabolism, a corollary of synaptic activity, will be acquired from the male that emerges as dominant in each group (defined by his mating success with the female) in two different conditions. In one condition, the isolated dominant male will observe the lower-ranking male and female mate in a nearby cage. In socially housed animals, this stimulus frequently provokes an attack by the dominant male on the female of the

40 Domestic Violence

mating pair. In the second condition (the control condition), the dominant male will again be confronted with the subordinate male-female pair, but this time after they have already mated out of his view (during the male's post-ejaculatory refractory period). Thus, in the control condition, the dominant male will not observe the pair mating. Five of the dominant males will be treated with an anti-androgen prior to experimental testing, and the other five will be untreated. For the five untreated animals, images from the control condition will be subtracted from images from the mating condition to identify brain regions that show increased synaptic activity in response to this aggression-arousing stimulus. The same analysis will be conducted in the anti-androgen treated animals. The pattern of activation in the two groups of males will be compared to determine if any of the observed activations in the non-treated animals are androgendependent. Blood samples will also be collected from all three animals in each group following both experimental conditions. Samples will be assayed for LH, FSH, testosterone, ACTH, cortisol and NE. Hormone levels will be correlated with PET activity levels in various anatomical regions of interest and with measures of aggressive responding (i.e., threats) as recorded by a video camera. This will permit attempts to relate localized changes in brain activity to specific behavioral and endocrine correlates of aggression. Most of what is currently known about the neurobiological basis of aggressive behavior is based on research with rodents and felines. This study proposes to investigate this issue using an animal (rhesus monkeys) that is more closely related to humans in critical behavioral and neuroanatomic features. Ultimately, it is hoped that a thorough understanding of the neural substrates of aggressive behavior may lead to treatments that curtail its pathological expression in domestic violence, assault and homicide.

Project Title: ONLINE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE EDUCATION FOR PHYSICIANS Principal Investigator & Institution: Harris, John M. President; Medical Directions, Inc. 6101 E Grant Rd Tucson, AZ 85712 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-SEP-2000; Project End 31-MAR-2005 Summary: (provided by applicant): The aim of the Phase II study is to develop a problem-based, online continuing medical education (CIVIE) program that will improve physicians' and other health professionals? ability to manage patients suffering -from domestic (or intimate partner) violence (DV). Medical Directions will market this online program via private intranets and via its commercial CME website, The Virtual Lecture Hall (The VLH, www.vlh.com). The Phase I study successfully demonstrated that our online DV CME program could improve physicians' knowledge, attitudes and beliefs (KAB) in dealing with DV patients. During Phase II we intend to markedly expand this program, creating a customized CME experience for physicians based on their particular clinical practice and state of residence. This work will provide a unique approach to DV education as well as to online CME in general. We intend to assess the effectiveness of our revised DV CME program via a randomized controlled trial evaluating changes in KAB and changes in office practices used by physicians and mental health professionals in dealing with DV patients. We will also undertake a community-based study to determine whether an educational program such as this, when added to existing community strategies, can improve the use of DV resources.

Project Title: ORAL HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Principal Investigator & Institution: Gerbert, Barbara J.; University of California San Francisco 500 Parnassus Ave San Francisco, CA 94122 Timing: Fiscal Year 2001; Project Start 01-AUG-1999; Project End 31-JUL-2002 Summary: Physical injuries from domestic violence commonly appear in the areas of the face, head, and neck. For this reason, oral health care professionals have an important role to play in addressing this major public health problem. Recent studies have revealed that many oral health care professionals are unaware of this significant relationship between head and neck injuries and domestic violence, and are uncertain of their role in addressing this issue with their patients. Furthermore, other studies suggest that many oral health care professional feel uncomfortable offering assistance to domestic violence victims. In a randomized, controlled trial, we propose to develop and test the effectiveness of an educational and behavioral change intervention designed to help oral health care professionals effectively overcome reluctance to identify and treat victims of domestic violence, and to effect positive changes in their knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors with respect to caring for this patient population. The ultimate goal of this undertaking is to help prevent victims of domestic violence who seek dental care from being subjective to further violence and oral trauma. Research subjects will be recruited from among all practicing, office- based dentists and dental hygienists in Northern California and randomly assigned to either an Experimental or a Control Group. All subjects will be asked to complete the Oral Health are Professional Written Survey at each of three measurement points--pre-test, post-test (immediately following conclusion of an intervention), and six-month follow-up. This survey asks about dentists' and dental hygienists knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding identifying, assessing, and intervening with patients who are victims are domestic violence. Experimental Group participants will receive a targeted educational and behavioral change intervention based upon interventions shown to be successful by this research team and by others, but incorporating unique elements as well. The components of the intervention will include 1) individualized feedback of pretest scores (compared against either an "ideal" response or the average response of all subjects); 2) Skills-based Course consisting of a seminar module and an internet-based, self-study module; 3) Dental Record Reminder Cards (to be inserted into the dental record of all new patients of subjects in the Experimental Group) that provide a handy checklist of domestic violence assessment questions, referral information regarding communitybased assistance programs and tips for providing validation and support to victims; and, 4) Practice-oriented newsletters exploring oral health care professionals' perceptions of some of the barriers to identifying and aiding victims of domestic violence in a dental care setting, and suggesting ways to remove or reduce these barriers. The main outcome measures will be dentists' and dental hygienists' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding treating and assisting patients who are victims of domestic violence as measured by the Oral Health Care Professional Written Survey.

Project Title: PARENT TRAINING AND COUPLE THERAPY IN ALCOHOL TREATMENT Principal Investigator & Institution: Fincham, Frank D. Professor; Psychology; State University of New York at Buffalo 402 Crofts Hall Buffalo, NY 14260 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-SEP-2002; Project End 31-MAY-2005

42 Domestic Violence

Summary: Children of parents who abuse alcohol are at increase risk for emotional, behavioral, and social problems and interventions are needed to address the clinical needs of these children. Unfortunately, our data gathered from surveys of parents who enter outpatient treatment with a drinking problem show that more than 60% refuse to allow their children to participate in individual or family treatment. Thus, treatments for adult patients that improve the family environment may hold the most promise for affecting the psychosocial adjustment of children who live in these homes. A promising approach is Behavioral Couples Therapy 9BCT), which focuses both on reducing substance use and improving family adjustment. Recently, Kelley and Fals-Steward (in press) found that children whose parents participated in BCT displayed higher psychosocial adjustment at post-treatment at post-treatment, 6-month, and 12-month follow-up than children whose patients participated in treatment as usual or a psychoeducational coupled-based attention control condition. These promising results indicate that BCT has effects on the family that extends beyond the couple to their children, even though the children themselves were not actively involved in treatment. The primary objectives of this exploratory/developmental grant application are to extend the results of the Fals-Steward and Kelley investigation by examining the effects of BCT on children as rated not only by parents, but also by other informants within the family system (i.e., children themselves) and those outside the family system (i.e., teachers), and to explore the potential beneficial effects of adding parent skills training to BCT on children living with alcohol dependent parents. Specifically, this project seeks to determine whether (a) Parent Skills BCT in outpatient treatment results in greater improvements in psychosocial adjustment of children living in these homes compartment to children whose alcoholic parents receive individual-based treatment only, and (b) explore factors that may mediate the relationship between Parent Skills BCT involvement and improvements in children's psychosocial adjustment, including anticipated reductions in parental alcohol use, domestic violence and improved dyadic adjustment (both husband-wife and parent-child).

RELATED

Principal Investigator & Institution: Sharps, Phyllis W. Associate Professor; Johns Hopkins University 3400 N Charles St Baltimore, MD 21218 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2002; Project End 30-JUN-2007 Summary: Pilot Study #1" Health disparities are defined as differences in access to care, processes of health care or health outcomes. The gap between health care and health outcomes continues between minority and nonminority populations in this country. Women of color and their children compared to non- minority families are at great risk for health disparities, including access to care, process of health care and health outcomes. The context of their lives, which often includes lower levels of education, higher rates of poverty, and higher vulnerability to intimate partner violence (IPV) contributes significantly to these health disparities which aremanifested in decreased access to health care, shorter life expectancy, higher rates of infant mortality, greater prevalence of chronic diseases, certain cancers and infections, as well as traumatic injuries from IPV. This pilot project proposes to test the feasibility and obtain preliminary (quasi experimental) data on the efficacy of a community health nursing home intervention (CHNHVl) to reduce health disparities by increasing: access to health care; health promoting and safety behaviors; and parenting skills of women and children survivors of IPV. CHNs will assist families, by developing a Passport to Health,

Studies 43

used to identify appropriate health goals and adopt behaviors that will help them to achieve these goals and access to health care. Residents of 2 domestic violence shelters (rural NC and urban MD) will be recruited to the post-shelter CHNHVI or comparison (post shelter usual care) groups. The CHNHVl includes health education for women's and children's health and parenting; strategies for implementing safety plans; and coaching and/or referrals for accessing health care. Women and children will be receiving 14 weekly visits over 6 months post shelter stay. Intake and Three and 6 months post shelter stay data will be obtained from both groups related to health behaviors, physical/mental health outcomes, health care utilization; parenting skills and school performance. Data will be examined to compare outcomes between the intervention and comparison groups. We hypothesize that: women and children survivors of IPV enrolled in the CHNHVI will report: 1) increased health behaviors and use of appropriate health visits; 2) increased use of safety behaviors and 3) increased parenting skills and less parenting stress. The results will be used as the basis for a clinical trial intervention proposal. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

Project Title: PATIENT ORIENTED RESEARCH--ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGER Principal Investigator & Institution: Dodson, Thomas B. Associate Professor; Massachusetts General Hospital 55 Fruit St Boston, MA 02114 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-FEB-2000; Project End 31-JAN-2005 Summary: Multiple investigators have documented the importance of patient-oriented research in guiding therapy, implementing translational therapies and in evaluating diagnostic or therapeutic outcomes. Due to a shortage of investigators trained to conduct rigorous patient-oriented research in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS), the specialty literature consists largely of case reports and case series. The broad goals of this award are: 1) to develop a longitudinally funded fellowship program dedicated to training oral and maxillofacial surgeons in the principles and practice of clinical investigation; 2) to continue scientifically rigorous clinical research efforts in the area of reconstructive OMFS surgery; and 3) to initiate clinical research in the prevention and treatment of maxillofacial trauma. To accomplish these broad goals, we propose the following Specific Aims which address both the mentoring and patient oriented research aspects of the award: number 1) To establish the first funded fellowship in clinical investigation designed specifically for the training of oral and maxillofacial surgeons in patient-oriented research. Number 2) To measure the efficacy and safety of reconstructing alveolar bone defects with demineralized bone powder (DBP) or guided tissue regeneration (GTR) techniques in a 3rd molar extraction surgical model. Number 3) To determine the sensitivity and specificity of facial injuries as unambiguous diagnostic indicators of domestic violence and number 4) To identify risk factors for poor outcomes following treatment of mandibular condyle fractures. Specific aim 1 uses an extramurally funded two-year grant to support a Fellow studying the principles and practice of clinical investigation. Mentoring surgeons to be skilled clinical investigators addresses the acute shortage of well-trained clinical researchers in the specialty. Specific aim 2 uses an extramural award to conduct a single-blind, randomized clinical trial testing the efficacy of DBP and GTR-therapy for reconstructing alveolar defects following 3rd molar extraction. No current reconstructive techniques are clinically proven to be superior to natural healing of the extraction defect. Specific aim 3 uses a cross-sectional study to determine the diagnostic value of facial injuries as indicators of domestic violence (DV). As DV is characterized by recurrent violent episodes of

44 Domestic Violence

increasing severity, the early identification of DV victims may prevent future injury. Specific aim 4 uses a retrospective study design to identify patients at risk for poor treatment outcomes after mandibular condyle fractures. Condylar fractures are common and treatment is controversial. Identifying patients at risk for poor outcomes from standard treatment begins to address treatment controversies. This award leverages the PI's skills and talents by providing protected time to mentor additional trainees and to conduct high quality patient-oriented research.

Project Title: PHNS' EXPERIENCES WITH DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS Principal Investigator & Institution: Evanson, Tracy; None; University of Minnesota Twin Cities 200 Oak Street Se Minneapolis, MN 554552070 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 15-SEP-2002 Summary: (provided by applicant) Despite wide recognition that health care providers across all disciplines encounter victims of domestic violence in all practice settings, few have studied public health nurses (PHNs) who visit domestic violence victims and their families in their homes. Furthermore, the limited numbers of studies that have been conducted with PHNs have yet to describe the actual practice and experiences, from the perspective of the PHNs. Thus, the phenomenon of interest that will be investigated in this study is the lived experiences of PHNs who work with families experiencing domestic violence in their home visiting caseloads of childbearing/childrearing families. The specific aims are to a) describe the lived experiences of public health nurses when they have identified and intervened in domestic violence cases within their home-visiting caseloads of childbearing/childrearing families, b) describe the lived experiences of public health nurses when they perceived that they were unable to intervene in cases of suspected or confirmed domestic violence in their home-visiting caseloads of childbearing/childrearing families, and c) describe the factors that influence domestic violence identification and intervention, derived from the lived experiences of public health nurses working with childbearing/childrearing families in their homes. The study will utilize a descriptive phenomenology approach, in which semi-structured interviews will be conducted with PHNs from three different practice settings: urban, suburban, and rural. The transcripts will be analyzed to compare and contrast the themes that emerge from the three different practice settings. This knowledge gained from this study is essential for further development of practice and research related to the role of PHNs in domestic violence prevention and intervention.

Project Title: PHYSICAL ABUSE AND CHILD AGGRESSION:ROLE OF ANS AROUSAL Principal Investigator & Institution: Gordis, Elana B. Psychology; University of Southern California 2250 Alcazar Street, Csc-219 Los Angeles, CA 90033 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-MAR-2002; Project End 28-FEB-2007 Summary: The applicant requests five years of funding through the Mentored Career Development Award (K23) for training in psychophysiological methods to examine the effects of physical abuse and domestic violence on children. The candidate's ultimate goal is to integrate this training with her previous experience in observational approaches. The candidate will also gain experience in the ethical and methodological issues involved in conducting research with samples of abused and neglected children. Training includes coursework and close mentoring with experts in research on child

Studies 45

abuse, domestic violence, psychophysiology, aggression, measurement design, and multi-variate data analysis. The primary goal of the research plan is to test competing models for the role of autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity in the link between family violence and two different types of adolescent aggression: proactive aggression, which is unemotional and instrumental, and reactive aggression, which is emotional and defensive. The trauma of family violence may sensitize children, causing increased ANS activity to subsequent conflict and thereby increased reactive aggression. Alternatively, prolonged exposure to family violence may cause suppressed ANS activity and thus increased proactive aggression. Still another possibility is that family violence does not affect ANS activity, but that ANS response moderates the effect of family violence on adolescent aggression. Data collection will be part of a larger R01 grant examining the effects of abuse and neglect on adolescent development. The sample will include 210 abused adolescents identified by the Los Angeles Department of Child and Family Services and 210 comparison children. ANS arousal and reactivity to conflict stimuli will measured, and information regarding aggression and family violence histories will be obtained. The first year of the award will be devoted to developing stimuli for the psychophysiological assessments and to refining measures of proactive and reactive aggression. The subsequent years will be devoted to conducting the substantive research project. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen •

Project Title: POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER IN PRESCHOOL CHILDREN Principal Investigator & Institution: Scheeringa, Michael S. Assistant Professor; Psychiatry and Neurology; Tulane University of Louisiana New Orleans, LA 70118 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUL-2003; Project End 30-APR-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): The aims of this revised application are to multidimensionally evaluate the sequelae of psychological trauma in preschool-age children. The proposed plan is part of my programmatic series of studies on the developmental, neurobiological, and psychopathological impact of trauma on young children. I propose to recruit two samples of 70 children each, age 3 through 6 years, who have experienced two different kinds of traumatic events: single-blow acute trauma and repeated/witnessed trauma from domestic violence. We will recruit until we have 35 children with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and 35 children with subthreshold symptoms of PTSD in each group. There will also be a group of 70 healthy control children. The aims and hypotheses are: (1) The primary caregiver of children with PTSD will show more negative emotional regulation of their children compared to the caregivers of traumatized children without PTSD and to the parents of healthy control children. This effect will be shown two ways: (a) the parents of PTSD children will show more negative sequential interactions with their children in our laboratory and (b) the parents of PTSD children will score higher on self-report of avoidant coping behavior in the home; (2) Children with PTSD who score higher on measures of dissociation will slow down their heart rate in response to trauma stimuli. We will attempt to replicate this association that has previously been demonstrated in adolescents and adults, and is one piece of an emerging dissociative subtype of trauma response. The anticipated differences will also be analyzed separately within each trauma group to determine if there are differential impacts from single-blow and repeated/witnessed types of trauma at this early age. We have developed a model of how parent factors impact on child factors through the mechanism of parent-child relationship factors, which ultimately impact on the development of symptoms of PTSD. This revised application focuses more on how the mechanism of the parent-child

46 Domestic Violence

relationship may explain the development of psychopathology in early childhood. Ancillary explorations that are important to investigating this model will include how parental symptoms, parent dissociation, parent heart rate reactivity, and child comorbid symptomatology correlate with each other and with the parent-child relationship.

Project Title: POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER--A FOLLOW UP STUDY Principal Investigator & Institution: Breslau, Naomi; Director of Research; Psychiatry; Case Western Reserve Univ-Henry Ford Hsc Research Administraion Cfp-046 Detroit, MI 48202 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-APR-1992; Project End 31-MAY-2003 Summary: (Adapted from applicant's abstract): Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) continues to be a pressing public health challenge, not only among Vietnam combat veterans, but also among community residents who are victims of domestic violence, rape, physical assault, serious automotive accidents, and other severely traumatic events. This application is for a competing renewal of an ongoing longitudinal study of PTSD, as experienced by community residents of a major metropolitan area in the United States. Baseline data were gathered in 1989 in personal interviews with 1,007 young adults, who were 21 to 30 years of age. Follow-up interviews were conducted in 1992 and 1994 with more than 97 percent of the sample. This application is for the continuation of the research on PTSD in this well characterized epidemiologic sample. During the continuation, the research team will bring together previously separate lines of research on PTSD: epidemiologic research in the general community and neurobiologic research on sleep and stress hormone abnormalities, previously conducted with specialized samples, primarily Vietnam veterans. Previous findings from these lines of research emphasize the role of preexisting vulnerabilities in PTSD and the distinctive pathological processes in the disorder and its maintenance. The investigators propose to conduct an additional assessment of the sample, when the subjects are 35 to 39 years of age. A clinical assessment of PTSD is proposed, using a two-stage design. Subsets of subjects with PTSD, exposed to traumatic events but with no PTSD, and not exposed, will be recruited for sleep studies and studies of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation. Hypotheses about the epidemiology of traumatic events and PTSD will be tested (e.g., prospective risk factors for PTSD sensitization by prior exposure, period of risk for PTSD, risk for abuse of prescribed drugs following PTSD). Hypotheses about sleep concern sleep disturbance (e.g., sleep induction, continuity) and REM function (e.g., REM density). Hypotheses about neuroendocrine function concern alterations in 24 hour urinary-free cortisol and norepinephrine sections associated with PTSD.

Project Title: PREDICTORS OF ANTENATAL AND POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION Principal Investigator & Institution: Rich-Edwards, Janet W.; Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Inc. 93 Worcester St Wellesley, MA 02481 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUL-2003; Project End 30-JUN-2006 Summary: (provided by applicant): Antenatal and postpartum depression together affect roughly 15% of mothers, and may have serious consequences for the health and well-being of the entire family. Despite significant advances in understanding major depression, the specific causes of antenatal and postpartum depression remain less understood. Like major depression, antenatal and postpartum depression appear to

Studies 47

arise from interacting environmental and biological factors. A large volume of work implicates poverty and lack of social support as environmental determinants of major depression and postpartum depression. However, there has been little investigation into the impact of experiences of personal threat, such as violent abuse or racial discrimination, on the incidence of antenatal or postpartum depression. Among biological factors, disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal stress response have been implicated in depression. During normal pregnancy, cortisol levels are elevated, and the placenta contributes large quantities of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) to matemal circulation. The implications of these high levels of stress hormones for onset of depression during and immediately following pregnancy are poorly understood. We predict that antenatal and postpartum depression are influenced by these endocrine factors as well as by the psychosocial environment. We hypothesize that: 1) Physical and/or sexual abuse in childhood, in adulthood, and/or during pregnancy are associated with antenatal and postpartum depression. 2) Experience of racial discrimination is associated with antenatal and postpamam depression among women of color. 3) Levels of CRH during pregnancy are associated with a history of depression, are correlated with antenatal depression, and predict postpartum depression; 4) Elevated morning cortisol and/or depressed evening cortisol levels in the first three postpartum months are associated with postpartum depression. Few studies have had the size or the data needed to investigate both biologic and environmental predictors of depression before, during, and after pregnancy. Project Viva and Project Access are two ongoing cohort studies of pregnant women and their children in Boston, supported by the National Institutes of Health and the March of Dimes to assess psychosocial and hormonal predictors of pregnancy outcome and child health. To date, they have enrolled over 2800 women; by the end of the project, the proposed project will include 3,500 participants. These ongoing longitudinal cohort studies will provide a cost-effective and unique resource with which to determine factors predicting depression during pregnancy and the postpartum.

Project Title: PSYCHATRIC EPIDEMIOLOGY TRAINING PROGRAM Principal Investigator & Institution: Richardson, Gale A. Associate Professor; Psychiatry; University of Pittsburgh at Pittsburgh 350 Thackeray Hall Pittsburgh, PA 15260 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUL-1977; Project End 30-JUN-2007 Summary: (provided by applicant): The Psychiatric Epidemiology Training (PET) Program emphasizes the methodologies of epidemiology and biostatistics, focusing on the application of these methods to research on psychiatric disorders. The philosophy of the PET Program is that students must be thoroughly grounded in the techniques of epidemiology and biostatistics before they can apply this knowledge to the exploration of the distribution and etiology of psychiatric disorders. This training is accomplished by coursework in epidemiology and statistics, and through courses in psychiatric epidemiology that were designed specifically for the PET Program. An equally important part of the training experience is the opportunity to work on research projects with faculty mentors who are active researchers in psychiatry and epidemiology. In addition, there is a strong emphasis among the faculty on translational research. This is a competing renewal of a training program that began in 1977, The PET Program has had 32 predoctoral students. Of those who obtained degrees, all but two (93 percent) have remained in academic and/or research positions. Graduates have attained levels such as Professor, Vice President of Research, Chief Epidemiologist, and Program Chief at the CDC, The PET Program has also trained 20 postdoctoral fellows, half of whom

were M.D.s. Seventeen (85 percent) have remained in research and/or academic positions; 7 of these are now at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor. The preand postdoctoral fellows are addressing areas of central importance to the field of psychiatric epidemiology, such as the epidemiology of and risk factors for dementia in the elderly, child and adolescent depression, the relationship between ethnicity and schizophrenia, and the effects of domestic violence on psychiatric symptomatology.

Project Title: PTSD & INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE: A NATIONAL SAMPLE Principal Investigator & Institution: Dutton, Mary A. Research Professor; Psychiatry; Georgetown University Washington, DC 20057 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-DEC-2002; Project End 30-NOV-2003 Summary: (provided by applicant): The aim of this proposed study is to examine risk and protective factors associated with current posttraumatic stress symptoms among a nationally representative sample of adult women (n = 397) currently living with an intimate partner who reportedly sexually assaulted, physically assaulted, stalked, and/or threatened them at some point during the course of the relationship. The unique characteristics of intimate partner violence (Gordon, 2000) render this study especially important. The proposed study is based on a secondary analysis of data drawn from a nationally representative sample used in the National Violence Against Women (NVAW) survey (Tjaden & Thoennes, 1998). In the proposed study, risk and protective factors were identified using a nested ecological model (Bronfenbrenner, 1986) adopted to explain battered women's experience (Dutton, 1996), which takes into account the context of the traumatic event, and the way in which the event is perceived (Giel, 1998). We predict differences in current post-traumatic stress symptoms ( IES-R; Weiss & Marmar, 1997), depression, alcohol and substance abuse, and general health by 1) type of "index" partner IPV (sexual assault, physical assault, stalking, threats), 2) intensity of "index" partner IPV (severity, injury, threat of serious harm or death, weapon use, subjective threat appraisal, recency, duration, frequency) 3) respondents' threat appraisal of ongoing violence-related risk, 4) respondents' prior history of childhood and adulthood violence victimization, 5) respondents' efforts to leave the "index" relationship, and 6) respondents' prior community-system involvement (medical care, mental health care, criminal justice, protection order) related to their experience with IPV. Measures of lPV utilized in the NVAW capture a full range and patterning of intimate partner violence recommended by (Gordon, 2000). Multivariate statistical modeling is used to test predicted relationships. Website: http://crisp.cit.nih.gov/crisp/Crisp_Query.Generate_Screen

Project Title: REDUCING HIV & DOMESTIC VIOLENCE RISK IN WOMEN OFFENDERS Principal Investigator & Institution: Stark, Michael J.; Multnomah County Health Department Portland, OR 97204 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 10-FEB-2000; Project End 31-DEC-2004 Summary: (Taken from abstract). The Multnomah County Health Department and the Oregon Health Division propose a randomized controlled trial to test two interventions to reduce women offenders' HIV-related risk behavior and exposures to domestic violence. 870 HIV seronegative female offenders at risk of HIV infection (i.e., females who inject drugs, use crack, are sex partners of IDUs, or trade sex for drugs, money, or subsistence) will be recruited through outreach at existing county jail HIV testing sites.

Studies 49

Subsequent to their release from jail, participants will be randomly assigned to one of three study conditions: Participants in the control condition will receive the standard of care-referrals for needed services. Women in the HIV prevention condition will receive three-month case management and intensive HIV risk reduction intervention. The risk reducing intervention will consist of multiple sessions of a motivational enhancement procedure designed to assess the participant's HIV risk behaviors, give feedback, assess readiness for behavior change, and develop a tailored, stage-based behavior change intervention. The behavioral plan will be reviewed at the next intervention session. Women in the HIV and domestic violence prevention condition will receive the same intervention as those in the second condition, plus assessment and intervention for the prevention of domestic violence and coerced risk activity. All participants will complete face-to-face assessment interviews measuring their drug-related behaviors, sexual risk behaviors, experiences of domestic violence, psychological well being, behavioral selfefficacy and relationship processes. Assessments will occur at enrollment, at the completion of the intervention (month 4), and follow-ups (months 7 and 10). Testing for HIV antibodies will occur at baseline and at month 10. Latent growth modeling techniques will be used to investigate whether the HIV prevention intervention facilitates reduction in HIV sexual and needle risk behaviors, and to investigate if the addition of a domestic violence prevention component is associated with further reductions in HIV risk behaviors or reductions in domestic violence and coerced risk activity. The effects of these interventions on hypothesized mediators of risk behaviors will also be determined. Regression and profile techniques will be used to identify participant characteristics related to the reduction of risk behaviors.

Project Title: RISK FOR DYSFUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS FOR YOUNG ADULTS Principal Investigator & Institution: Capaldi, Deborah M. Senior Scientist; Oregon Social Learning Center, Inc. 160 E 4Th Ave Eugene, OR 97401 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-SEP-1994; Project End 30-NOV-2003 Summary: (Adapted from applicant's abstract): Conflictual and dysfunctional intimate relationships are a major cause of unhappiness in adulthood and are associated with areas of national concern such as domestic violence, high divorce rates, and problems for children of such relationships. Domestic violence is the leading cause of injuries to women 15-44 years of age. Romantic relationships may also have positive effects, such as the effect that a skilled female partner may have on a male's adjustment. The current proposal addresses three major topics regarding young-adult romantic relationships for an ongoing, at-risk sample of males. The first pertains to the occurrence of aggression both physical and psychological, in the relationship. In particular, theoretical models related to stability or change in such aggression during the young-adult period will be tested. Second, prediction models of instability of romantic relationships, particularly the breakdown of more committed relationships in young adulthood, will be tested. In turn, the effect of such breakdowns on the male's trajectory, including antisocial behavior, will be examined. Third, the extent to which characteristics of the female partner affect the young-adult trajectory of the male, particularly regarding improvement in antisocial behavior, will be examined. Within each of these areas, the influence of selection factors, including assortative partnering, will be examined. The current proposal addresses these topics with two further waves of data collection for males (in their mid 20s) who were first recruited into the Oregon Youth Study (OYS) in Grade 4 (current N = 204, a 99% retention rate over 13-14 years). Time 1 and Time 2

50 Domestic Violence

assessments with romantic partners were already collected (or are underway) at age 1720 and 20-23. Assessments will be multi-method, multi-agent, and will include interviews, questionnaires, records data, and a videotaped problem-solving task for the young couple. In the proposed period we will take a person-environment interaction approach to examine the developmental, contextual, partner and dyadic process factors that predict stability and change in aggression, antisocial behavior, and adjustment through the 20s, a time of young-adult transition.

An average of 20 workers are murdered each week in the U.S., and an estimated 18,000 workers per week are victims of non-fatal assault (NIOSH, 2001 ). Homicide is the leading cause of death among U.S. women in the workplace and, depending on the geographic area, the first, second or third leading cause of death among all workers (Simonowitz et al., 1997). Sixteen percent of workplace homicides are perpetrated by an intimate partner (NIOSH, 2001). The specific aims are to: (1) identify the types of violence that women and men experience while working as a long-haul truck driver; (2) identify risk factors that contribute to violence against truckers and between truckers; (3) differentiate the risks of work-related stress among distinct sociodemographic groups of truckers as they relate to specific exposures experienced by long-haul truck drivers; (4) determine the prevalence of domestic violence experienced by long-haul truck drivers when their driving partner is their intimate partner; and (5) identify work environment factors that place truck drivers' safety at risk. The aims of this project are consistent with the Healthy People 2010 objectives that address the reduction of work-related homicides (Objective 20-5) and work-related assaults (Objective 20-6), and with the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) Objectives. They also address types of violence identified by the Iowa Report to the Nation on Workplace Violence (2001 ). The project specifically focuses on risk factors related to workplace violence in the long-haul trucking profession. A cross-sectional, non-intervention design using both quantitative and qualitative methods will be used to collect data. A quantitative survey will be conducted with a nonprobability sample of women and men (N = 1,400) recruited at truck shows and truck stops across the U.S. Data will be collected on violence-related variables (e.g., harassment, weapons, assault, rape, robbery, worksite security, fatigue, psychological strain, and substance abuse). Qualitative data on violence at the worksite will be collected via 60 phone interviews with a purposive sample of 30 female and 30 male participants. The interviewees will answer open-ended questions about workplace violence. The findings will assist in the development of interventions to decrease the risk of exposure to violence in the long haul trucking industry. A sequential and staged approach to the analysis of the data will be used. Dependent on the specific aim, bivariate relationships, logistic regression, discriminant analysis, Cronbach's alpha, and ANCOVA will be used. Content analysis will be used to describe, analyze, and interpret the qualitative data for core consistencies and meanings described by truckers.

Project Title: SEX AND VIOLENCE: CARE IMPERATIVES FOR HISPANIC HEALTH Principal Investigator & Institution: Jones, Mary E. None; University of Texas Arlington 301 South Center Street Arlington, TX 76019 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 06-SEP-2002; Project End 05-SEP-2003 Summary: The primary goal of this project is to deliver on October 11 & 12, 2002 an International State of the Science Conference, "Emerging Knowledge in Culture and Health: Caring for Hispanic Populations." The conference is the third in a series of successful international conferences on health care issues for patients of Hispanic origin. The proposed conference targets two Health People 2010 health indicators: responsible sexual behavior and injury and violence. These indicators were chosen because of the compelling need to assist professional health care workers increase their knowledge and skills about Hispanic health care issues in order to deliver culturally appropriate care. Additionally, the conference targets Hispanics as they are expected to be the largest minority group in the United States by 2009. Both sexually transmitted diseases, HIV/AIDS, and domestic violence are major public health problems for Hispanic populations. Presenters with expertise in caring for Hispanic populations and in one of the conference health indicators will provide a synthesis of emerging research-based knowledge related to care of Hispanic populations with emphasis on cultural traditions of family and male/female relationships. They will identify research-based clinical interventions related to improving responsible sexual behavior and decreasing the incidence of domestic violence and describe cultural considerations to increase the effectiveness of these interventions among Hispanic populations. Based on previous successful conferences, between 250 and 300 participants are expected to attend the conference. Additionally, publication of the conferences papers in a "special issue" of a referred professional journal will make the state of science information available to a large number of health care providers, health service administrations and health educators. Announcements of the published journal issue will be made to health professions schools located in states known as "classic" immigrant magnets and in states with new areas of Hispanic migration (e.g., Las Vegan, Atlanta, Salt Lake City, Austin, Phoenix and Oklahoma City.

Project Title: SKILLS TRAINING /EXPOSURE IN CHILDHOOD ABUSE PTSD Principal Investigator & Institution: Cloitre, Marylene; Associate Professor; Psychiatry; New York University School of Medicine 550 1St Ave New York, NY 10016 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 15-SEP-2002; Project End 31-MAR-2007 Description (provided by applicant): Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating and often chronic anxiety disorder with serious psychiatric comorbidity. The lifetime prevalence of PTSD is estimated at 10 percent among women and 5 percent for men. The most frequent trauma associated with PTSD among women is childhood abuse. PTSD related to childhood abuse is associated with substantial disturbance in emotion regulation and interpersonal functioning. There is significant functional impairment among childhood abuse survivors with PTSD such as poor work and relationship histories, problems in parenting, and high risk for revictimization in the form of physical assault, sexual assault and domestic violence. Not surprisingly, this population is significantly over-represented in mental health services. Treatment research for this group of PTSD patients is urgently needed. The principal investigator, supported by NIMH funds, has developed a treatment that directly and vigorously

52 Domestic Violence

addresses three distinct problem domains in PTSD related to childhood abuse: emotion management problems, interpersonal problems, and PTSD. The treatment, organized into two phases, provides 8 sessions of skills training in affect and interpersonal regulation (STAIR) followed by 8 sessions of a modified version of prolonged exposure (MPE). Results of a randomized controlled trial found significant improvement in all three targeted areas. The primary aim of the proposed study is to determine whether this two-component treatment is superior to treatments utilizing only one of the treatment components. Studies of PTSD related to adult-onset traumas have found that combination treatments do not provide any benefit superior to their components. However, the problem-specific nature of the interventions as well the sequential rather than simultaneous implementation of the treatment components, suggest that this combination treatment may produce better outcomes than comparable singlecomponent treatments. One hundred and fifty (150) women with PTSD related to childhood abuse will be randomly assigned to one of three active treatments: STAIR/MPE, an MPE treatment condition, and a STAIR treatment condition. The primary outcome variables will target the three problem domains: affect management, interpersonal functioning and PTSD symptoms. We will also assess the feasibility of each treatment as measured by dropout rates and the presence of adverse effects as measured by symptom worsening over the course of treatment.

Project Title: SPOKANE WORKPLACE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE INITIATIVE Principal Investigator & Institution: Blodgett, Christopher J. Human Development; Washington State University 423 Neill Hall Pullman, WA 99164 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 30-SEP-2002; Project End 29-SEP-2005 Summary: Domestic violence is a leading cause of preventable injury and death. Workplace domestic violence is under identified and programs in the workplace are needed to identify and intervene in domestic violence. This proposal will: increase the identification of domestic violence in the workplace (DVWP); increase the capacity of organizations to prevent workplace violence incidents through preventive policies and early intervention practices; and increase the effectiveness of responses to workplace domestic violence through a coordinated community response to improve the quality of business response, victim supports, and law enforcement intervention. The proposed initiative uses employee and management education, business policy development, the creation of incident reporting strategies to increase the identification of DVWP incidents, and a continuing relationship with the intervention team to improve programs over time. A second principal objective of this initiative is to develop the organizational development strategies, management and employee skills, and follow-up strategies to assure that policies result in effective practices in the workplace. In this initiative, we propose a coordinated community response to assess and reduce the emerging threat, protect the individuals at risk, reduce the risk of re-victimization, and reduce the disruption to the mission of the affected business. Key to this coordinated response is the melding of victim support and safety and law enforcement response with businesses' obligations to aid their employees and pursue their mission as organizations. We will conduct a longitudinal, randomized outcomes study of the effectiveness of a DVWP intervention that integrates these educational, organizational development, and crisis response components.

Project Title: THE ILLINOIS FAMILIES STUDY: CHILD WELL-BEING Principal Investigator & Institution: Holl, Jane L. Assistant Professor; None; Northwestern University 633 Clark St Evanston, IL 60208 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 13-SEP-2000; Project End 30-JUN-2005 Summary: This study focuses on the etiology of two specific forms of child neglect: physical neglect and supervisory neglect. Welfare reform requires parents to spend more time in formal employment, subject them to time limits and sanctions on the receipt of income assistance, and may result in unstable health care coverage for their families. Assessing whether such changes results in a differential rate of child maltreatment in general, and different types of child neglect in particular, is the focus of this study. The specific aims of the project are to assess the relationship between child and (1) employment, (2) income (dynamics), and (3) health care coverage. We will also identify the factors that mediate or moderate such relationships and expand the knowledge about causal pathways leading to specific forms of child neglect. We will also include baseline assessments of child development so that future studies may assess the developmental impacts of these forms of child neglect. This study builds upon the Illinois Families Study (IFS). The IFS will follow 1,500 families over six-years to study the effects of welfare and work by conducting annual surveys to gather information about demographics, employment, income, parenting, child care, health, and domestic violence and will gather, quarterly administrative data about use of welfare, Medicaid, unemployment, and social services. Nine Illinois counties have been selected for the study representing over 75% of the Illinois TANF caseload. This study will involve a sub-sample of children the IFS (500 children <2 years at the first interview). A parent will be interviewed, in-person, 6 months after the first IFS interview and then annually. The interview will focus on child development and temperament, parenting beliefs, household accident risks, adequacy of basic needs, and health care. Medical chart reviews will be conducted to assess access and adequacy of health care and to identify additional risks for neglect. Quarterly administrative data from the Illinois Department of Employment's Insurance database, the New-Hire registry, and all social agency registries (Food Stamps, Medicaid, Child Abuse) will be linked for each subject. Data from a continuously integrated database of children's services in Illinois that depicts a full network of relationships linking individual children and public services (e.g. child protection, juvenile justice, Medicaid, special education, and mental health services) will also be linked. The more likely statistical power levels for each neglect outcome range from.72 to.94 for a two-tailed test, and from.82 to.97 for a one-tailed test. This study will not rely solely on formal indicators of neglect, but will investigate other "informal" indicators based on operationalized definitions of environmental, physical, and supervisory neglect. Independent measures will include demographics, parental characteristics, parent-child interaction, parent and child physical and mental health, and child development. The means, standard deviations, and ranges associated with each indicators will be reported, and for repeated measured, the average change from one interview to the next will be provided. The primary goal of the multivariate analyses is to determine which factors or combinations of factors place children at greater risk for child neglect and CPS intervention.

54 Domestic Violence

Summary: (provided by applicant): Scientific knowledge about the effects of trauma on children, including domestic violence, has grown significantly in the last few years. However, there are some areas that have not been well described yet, including the effect of uxoricide on children. Uxoricide, the killing of one spouse by the other is, unfortunately, an all too common occurrence. In a family with minor children the effect can be devastating, for in a single act, the children lose both parents - one has died and the other is either a fugitive, in prison or has committed suicide. Some studies have begun to document the immediate effect of this kind of trauma on children, but the long-term consequences have not been investigated. In order to develop ways to help these most vulnerable children, research needs to be conducted on what they face growing up. This retrospective, exploratory study will use qualitative methods to describe the experiences of children from the time of the traumatic killing until adulthood. The sample will consist of 90 men and women, who when they were children lived through the killing of one of their parents by the other. The participants will be asked to give a narrative account of their experiences as children including those circumstances, people, ideas, or attitudes that helped or hindered them.

Project Title: TRAINING PROGRAM IN SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY Principal Investigator & Institution: Arkin, Robert M. Professor; Psychology; Ohio State University 1800 Cannon Dr, Rm 1210 Columbus, OH 43210 Timing: Fiscal Year 2002; Project Start 01-AUG-1992; Project End 30-JUN-2007 Summary: (Provided by applicant): The social psychology graduate training program at Ohio State has been providing the nation with new Ph.D.'s for over 30 years. It is guided by a group of nine (and soon to be ten) full-time faculty whose primary affiliation is with the program. Societal problems derive more and more from the dilemmas and temptations faced by typical people in typical settings. Drug use, employee absenteeism, domestic violence, poor diet choices, smoking, and drinking and driving all illustrate the kinds of concerns addressed by theory and research in social psychology. The social program at Ohio State offers its students research training enabling them to tackle such problems throughout their research careers. The program has four features that distinguish it from other training centers in social psychology. First, the program adopts a multi-level integrative approach toward graduate training. Problems in society are multiply determined, and their solutions must be based on that recognition. Pre- and postdoctoral training components are designed to equip students with the conceptual and methodological tools required to examine social psychological phenomena from multiple levels of analysis. Second, the program is organized around five core principles: scientific competence, scholarship and scientific integrity, personal responsibility, priority setting, and the sovereignty of each student. These principles are operationalized through the structure of coursework, research activities, and mentoring in the program. Third, the program provides an integrated and synergistic relationship between training in basic and applied research. Through their research involvement, students learn both that there is nothing so practical as a good theory and that nothing fosters a good theory more than a perplexing practical problem. Fourth, and finally, the program is distinguished by the quality and collegiality of both students and faculty. Faculty and students are high visibility, seminal contributors to the field. A training grant (that supports both predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees) for the social psychology training program will substantially facilitate the program?s ability to contribute scholars to the field with the multi-level analytic skills needed to address the practical problems faced by individuals in today's society.

Project Title: TREATMENT OF BATTERED WOMEN WITH PTSD IN SHELTERS Principal Investigator & Institution: Johnson, Dawn M.; Summa Health System Box 2090, 525 E Market St Akron, OH 44304 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-JUL-2003; Project End 31-MAR-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): This application is a request for a Mentored PatientOriented Research Career Development Award (K23) that will enable Dr. Johnson to begin developing a programmatic line of research in the assessment and treatment of the traumatic effects of domestic violence on battered women and their children. Intimate partner violence is a pervasive social problem with negative psychological consequences for both women and children. Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is extremely common in battered women, especially those in domestic violence shelters. Symptoms of PTSD may compromise battered women's ability to effectively access resources and establish them and their children. However, no research has systematically and empirically evaluated the treatment of PTSD in battered women in shelters. Thus, research on treatment with this vulnerable population is sorely needed. Dr. Johnson's training goals are to: (1) Increase understanding of treatment development process, with a focus on methods for developing and evaluating treatments for PTSD in naturalistic settings, (2) Acquire expertise in conducting research with, and providing clinical treatment for, battered women with PTSD, (3) Develop a better understanding of the effects of exposure to domestic violence on the children of battered women and how this impacts the treatment needs of battered women; (4) Learn new assessment techniques for children appropriate for measuring the effects of exposure to domestic violence, (5) Develop more advanced skills in research design, methodology, and statistical analyses, particularly techniques relevant to clinical trials, and (6) Improve grant writing and manuscript preparation skills. These training goals will be achieved through (1) the resources available at the Brown University Medical School, (2) the high quality mentorship provided by Drs. Caron Zlotnick, Ernest Jouriles, Ronald Seifer, and Cris Sullivan, and the expertise of the assembled consultant team (Drs. Mary Ann Dutton and Janice Krupnick), (3) focused coursework, trainings, and clinical experiences, and (4) the proposed research project. The proposed research plan involves further developing and empirically testing a new treatment for battered women in shelters with PTSD or subthreshold PTSD. The proposed treatment, Helping to Overcome PTSD through Empowerment (HOPE) incorporates the empirical and theoretical literature on battered women, trauma, and PTSD. It is a nine session individual cognitive-behavioral treatment that emphasizes stabilization and empowerment. The specific research aims are to: (1) Refine HOPE and its manual, gain clinical experience with the treatment procedures and develop HOPE therapist training procedures and adherence and competence rating scales and (2) Evaluate the initial acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of HOPE in a randomized controlled study, comparing HOPE combined with standard shelter services to standard shelter services alone.

56 Domestic Violence

Summary: This 4-year randomized controlled trial will design, implement, and test the efficacy of nurse case management and group education for African- American, Hispanic, and White abused women attending inner city primary care clinics. These clinics are part of a county-wide system that maintains a computerized information system of inpatient and outpatient encounters. The theoretically-based intervention will build on empirically tested components designed to: increase safety planning behaviors; increase self-efficacy for safety behaviors; decrease frequency and severity of abuse; improve physical emotional and social well-being; decrease unscheduled medical care utilization; and increase work productivity. An additional objective is to evaluate the impact of the interventions on the health and functional status and medical utilization of abused women's children. Consecutive sampling of women 18-44 years of age presenting for medical care will be screened for domestic violence until a sample of 400 abused women is obtained. Participants will be randomized to one of 4 treatment cells in a factorial design: referral card, referral card + group education, referral card + case management, referral card + group education + case management. Nurse case management will include education on safety planning, crisis management, supportive care, anticipatory guidance, and referrals. Group education will consist of sessions conducted by local legal, social, and educational agencies for abused women. The factorial study design will allow testing the main effects of group education and nurse case management and the interaction of group education and case management on safety behaviors, health outcomes in the women and their children, and medical care utilization. Measures will be collected at baseline and every 6 months for 3 years after randomization. An economic evaluation of the program will be conducted using cost benefit analyses of the four alternative treatments from both societal and health care system perspectives.

Project Title: VALIDATION OF A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PROGRAM IMPACT MEASURE Principal Investigator & Institution: Silverman, Jay G. Public Health Practice; Harvard University (Sch of Public Hlth) Public Health Campus Boston, MA 02460 Timing: Fiscal Year 2003; Project Start 01-SEP-2003; Project End 31-AUG-2004 Summary: (Provided by the Applicant) Background and Significance: Domestic violence affects one to three million Americans each year and has significant impacts on victim's health and health care. To better address the needs of patients experiencing domestic violence (DV), a growing number of hospitals and health centers have established on-site DV programs. There is currently a pressing need for a specific instrument to assess the progress of clients participating in such healthcare-based DV programs, both for use as a clinical assessment tool, as well as for program evaluation purposes. Research design and specific aims: The goal of this project is to conduct initial studies to assess the reliability and validity of the English and Spanish versions of the DV Program Client Survey, a client progress measure designed by the Conference of Boston Teaching Hospitals' DV Advisory Council for use in healthcare-based DV programs. This project will specifically assess the four following aspects of the DV Program Client Survey among clients participating in four well established healthcarebased DV programs: 1) the content validity of the English and Spanish versions of the survey through three focus groups with white, non-Hispanic, African-American, and Hispanic clients respectively (n = 6-8 per group), 2) the test-retest reliability of the English version of the survey (n = 50), 3) the concurrent validity of the English (n = 50) and the Spanish (n = 50) versions of the survey in comparison with the Index of Spouse

Studies 57

Abuse, the Medical Outcomes Study - Short Form 20, the Quality of Life Index, and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and 4) the response bias of the English version of the survey through a comparison of surveys completed under the guidance of an advocate (n = 50) with those completed independently of an advocate (n = 50). Contribution and long-term objective: This study will provide essential information regarding the reliability and validity of both the English and Spanish versions of an instrument to assess the progress of clients participating in healthcare-based DV programs. This instrument will be extremely useful to healthcare-based DV programs for clinical and program development purposes, in addition to providing valuable information regarding the effectiveness of these programs.

CHAPTER 4. CLINICAL TRIALS AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Overview In this chapter, we will show you how to keep informed of the latest clinical trials concerning domestic violence.

Recent Trials on Domestic Violence The following is a list of recent trials dedicated to domestic violence.7 Further information on a trial is available at the Web site indicated. •

Effect of Fluoxetine (Prozac) on Domestic Violence Condition(s): Domestic Violence Study Status: This study is currently recruiting patients. Sponsor(s): National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) Purpose - Excerpt: This study will evaluate whether fluoxetine (Prozac), used together with traditional psychotherapy, can reduce aggression in people who are physically violent towards their spouses or significant others. Treatment for domestic violence has centered on behavioral therapies, such as anger management and self-control exercises. Recent studies have shown that fluoxetine-a drug commonly used to treat depression and panic disorder-can decrease acts of aggression. Men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 who have a history of inflicting physical aggression on a spouses or significant others in the past year (with at least one episode occurring not under the influence of alcohol) may be eligible for this study. Participants spouses or significant others will also be asked to participate. All potential participants will be screened with a medical and psychiatric evaluation and history, breath alcohol analysis, blood tests, urine drug screen and electrocardiogram. Those enrolled will undergo the following procedures: Perpetrator -Interview and questionnaires - Participants will be interviewed by a social worker about past and current mental health and use of alcohol and illicit drugs and will complete questionnaires assessing emotional state and personality, depression, anxiety, aggression and alcohol consumption. Some of the questionnaires will be repeated at monthly intervals. -Physical performance testing - Performance and

speed will be measured in three separate training sessions that involve repeatedly pressing a button on a button box console, earning points worth money. -Dyadic interaction paradigm - Participants will interact with their spouse/significant other in a small room, first discussing a neutral topic, such as the day's events, and then a subject that has been a source of conflict. -Fluoxetine administration - Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 10 mg. of fluoxetine or placebo (identical capsules with no active ingredients) once a day for 3 days, then twice a day, increasing up to four capsules a day if there are no serious side effects. Blood will be drawn once a month to measure drug levels. At the end of 3 months, participants taking placebo may remain in the study and receive fluoxetine. -Clinic visits - Participants are followed in the clinic weekly for the first month, then twice a month for the next 2 months for adjustment of number of pills, evaluation of aggressive behavior and alcohol consumption, and therapy for issues of self-esteem, anger management and communication skills. Couples therapy aimed at conflict resolution and improving communication skills will be offered. -Genetic tests (optional) - Blood will be drawn to determine if there is a relationship between genes involved in a chemical process (serotonin reuptake) that is influenced by fluoxetine and the participant's response to the drug. Spouse/Significant other: Spouses/significant others will complete several questionnaires once a month (total 4 times) to rate their partners' behavior while in the study. They will also participate in the dyadic interaction paradigm described above at the beginning and end of the study. Phase(s): Phase II; MEDLINEplus consumer health information Study Type: Interventional Contact(s): see Web site below Web Site: http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct/show/NCT00011765 •

Treatment for Men who are Abusive to their Partners Condition(s): Domestic Violence Study Status: This study is currently recruiting patients.

The books may be accessed in two ways: (1) by searching directly using any search term or phrase (in the same way as the bibliographic database PubMed), or (2) by following the links to PubMed abstracts. Each PubMed abstract has a "Books" button that displays a facsimile of the abstract in which some phrases are hypertext links. These phrases are also found in the books available at NCBI. Click on hyperlinked results in the list of books in which the phrase is found. Currently, the majority of the links are between the books and PubMed. In the future, more links will be created between the books and other types of information, such as gene and protein sequences and macromolecular structures.

APPENDIX B. PATIENT RESOURCES Overview Official agencies, as well as federally funded institutions supported by national grants, frequently publish a variety of guidelines written with the patient in mind. These are typically called “Fact Sheets” or “Guidelines.” They can take the form of a brochure, information kit, pamphlet, or flyer. Often they are only a few pages in length. Since new guidelines on domestic violence can appear at any moment and be published by a number of sources, the best approach to finding guidelines is to systematically scan the Internetbased services that post them.

Patient Guideline Sources The remainder of this chapter directs you to sources which either publish or can help you find additional guidelines on topics related to domestic violence. Due to space limitations, these sources are listed in a concise manner. Do not hesitate to consult the following sources by either using the Internet hyperlink provided, or, in cases where the contact information is provided, contacting the publisher or author directly. The National Institutes of Health The NIH gateway to patients is located at http://health.nih.gov/. From this site, you can search across various sources and institutes, a number of which are summarized below. Topic Pages: MEDLINEplus The National Library of Medicine has created a vast and patient-oriented healthcare information portal called MEDLINEplus.

Simply type a keyword into the search box and click “Search.” This utility is similar to the NIH search utility, with the exception that it only includes materials that are linked within the MEDLINEplus system (mostly patient-oriented information). It also has the disadvantage of generating unstructured results. We recommend, therefore, that you use this method only if you have a very targeted search. The Combined Health Information Database (CHID) CHID Online is a reference tool that maintains a database directory of thousands of journal articles and patient education guidelines on domestic violence. CHID offers summaries that describe the guidelines available, including contact information and pricing. CHID’s general Web site is http://chid.nih.gov/. To search this database, go to http://chid.nih.gov/detail/detail.html. In particular, you can use the advanced search options to look up pamphlets, reports, brochures, and information kits.

Summary: This reference packet includes various materials developed by the New York State Department of Health and the Office for the Prevention of Domestic Violence. It is designed for health care practitioners responding to victims of domestic violence and is used in training programs provided by the Office for the Prevention of Domestic Violence. The packet includes: regulatory codes pertinent to adult domestic violence; 17 related articles and newsletters; an emergency room poster; Handbook for Abused Women (available in Spanish and English); and 3 domestic violence protocols: 1) Identifying and Treating Adult Victims of Domestic Violence; 2) Identifying and Treating Adult Victims of Domestic Violence in Diagnostic and Treatment Centers (DRAFT); and 3) Identifying and Treating Adult Victims of Domestic Violence in Maternal/Infant Care Facilities (DRAFT). The 22-page protocol, Identifying and Treating Adult Victims of Domestic Violence, provides guidelines for identifying battered women and for sensitively approaching patients including well-known patients (i.e. patients seen frequently) and those with serious psychosocial problems about the issue. The protocol is summarized in a one-page checklist that can be used in the emergency room. The protocol includes a section on the roles and responsibilities of security personnel, intake, and triage staff, as well as detailed procedures for providers (e.g. nurses, physicians, residents, etc.). Referral to social work personnel and using a multidisciplinary team is emphasized. The appendices include sample forms for use in the emergency room such as a body injury map, receipt for evidence and consent to be photographed. A resource list is provided.

The NIH Search Utility The NIH search utility allows you to search for documents on over 100 selected Web sites that comprise the NIH-WEB-SPACE. Each of these servers is “crawled” and indexed on an ongoing basis. Your search will produce a list of various documents, all of which will relate in some way to domestic violence. The drawbacks of this approach are that the information is not organized by theme and that the references are often a mix of information for professionals and patients. Nevertheless, a large number of the listed Web sites provide useful background information. We can only recommend this route, therefore, for relatively rare or specific disorders, or when using highly targeted searches. To use the NIH search utility, visit the following Web page: http://search.nih.gov/index.html. Additional Web Sources

A number of Web sites are available to the public that often link to government sites. These can also point you in the direction of essential information. The following is a representative sample: •

Finding Associations There are several Internet directories that provide lists of medical associations with information on or resources relating to domestic violence. By consulting all of associations listed in this chapter, you will have nearly exhausted all sources for patient associations concerned with domestic violence. The National Health Information Center (NHIC) The National Health Information Center (NHIC) offers a free referral service to help people find organizations that provide information about domestic violence. For more information, see the NHIC’s Web site at http://www.health.gov/NHIC/ or contact an information specialist by calling 1-800-336-4797. Directory of Health Organizations The Directory of Health Organizations, provided by the National Library of Medicine Specialized Information Services, is a comprehensive source of information on associations. The Directory of Health Organizations database can be accessed via the Internet at

To access DIRLINE directly, go to the following Web site: http://dirline.nlm.nih.gov/. Simply type in “domestic violence” (or a synonym), and you will receive information on all relevant organizations listed in the database. Health Hotlines directs you to toll-free numbers to over 300 organizations. You can access this database directly at http://www.sis.nlm.nih.gov/hotlines/. On this page, you are given the option to search by keyword or by browsing the subject list. When you have received your search results, click on the name of the organization for its description and contact information. The Combined Health Information Database Another comprehensive source of information on healthcare associations is the Combined Health Information Database. Using the “Detailed Search” option, you will need to limit your search to “Organizations” and “domestic violence”. Type the following hyperlink into your Web browser: http://chid.nih.gov/detail/detail.html. To find associations, use the drop boxes at the bottom of the search page where “You may refine your search by.” For publication date, select “All Years.” Then, select your preferred language and the format option “Organization Resource Sheet.” Type “domestic violence” (or synonyms) into the “For these words:” box. You should check back periodically with this database since it is updated every three months. The National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc. The National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc. has prepared a Web site that provides, at no charge, lists of associations organized by health topic. You can access this database at the following Web site: http://www.rarediseases.org/search/orgsearch.html. Type “domestic violence” (or a synonym) into the search box, and click “Submit Query.”

APPENDIX C. FINDING MEDICAL LIBRARIES Overview In this Appendix, we show you how to quickly find a medical library in your area.

Preparation Your local public library and medical libraries have interlibrary loan programs with the National Library of Medicine (NLM), one of the largest medical collections in the world. According to the NLM, most of the literature in the general and historical collections of the National Library of Medicine is available on interlibrary loan to any library. If you would like to access NLM medical literature, then visit a library in your area that can request the publications for you.21

Finding a Local Medical Library The quickest method to locate medical libraries is to use the Internet-based directory published by the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM). This network includes 4626 members and affiliates that provide many services to librarians, health professionals, and the public. To find a library in your area, simply visit http://nnlm.gov/members/adv.html or call 1-800-338-7657.

Medical Libraries in the U.S. and Canada In addition to the NN/LM, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) lists a number of libraries with reference facilities that are open to the public. The following is the NLM’s list and includes hyperlinks to each library’s Web site. These Web pages can provide information on hours of operation and other restrictions. The list below is a small sample of

270 Domestic Violence

[NIH]

Amino acid: Any organic compound containing an amino (-NH2 and a carboxyl (- COOH) group. The 20 a-amino acids listed in the accompanying table are the amino acids from which proteins are synthesized by formation of peptide bonds during ribosomal translation of messenger RNA; all except glycine, which is not optically active, have the L configuration. Other amino acids occurring in proteins, such as hydroxyproline in collagen, are formed by posttranslational enzymatic modification of amino acids residues in polypeptide chains. There are also several important amino acids, such as the neurotransmitter y-aminobutyric acid, that have no relation to proteins. Abbreviated AA. [EU] Amino Acid Sequence: The order of amino acids as they occur in a polypeptide chain. This is referred to as the primary structure of proteins. It is of fundamental importance in determining protein conformation. [NIH] Amniotic Fluid: Amniotic cavity fluid which is produced by the amnion and fetal lungs and kidneys. [NIH] Amygdala: Almond-shaped group of basal nuclei anterior to the inferior horn of the lateral ventricle of the brain, within the temporal lobe. The amygdala is part of the limbic system. [NIH]

Anabolic: Relating to, characterized by, or promoting anabolism. [EU] Anaesthesia: Loss of feeling or sensation. Although the term is used for loss of tactile sensibility, or of any of the other senses, it is applied especially to loss of the sensation of pain, as it is induced to permit performance of surgery or other painful procedures.

[NIH] Antibody: A type of protein made by certain white blood cells in response to a foreign substance (antigen). Each antibody can bind to only a specific antigen. The purpose of this binding is to help destroy the antigen. Antibodies can work in several ways, depending on the nature of the antigen. Some antibodies destroy antigens directly. Others make it easier for white blood cells to destroy the antigen. [NIH] Antidepressant: A drug used to treat depression.

Complement activation occurs by two different sequences, the classic and alternative pathways. The proteins of the classic pathway are termed 'components of complement' and are designated by the symbols C1 through C9. C1 is a calcium-dependent complex of three distinct proteins C1q, C1r and C1s. The proteins of the alternative pathway (collectively referred to as the properdin system) and complement regulatory proteins are known by semisystematic or trivial names. Fragments resulting from proteolytic cleavage of complement proteins are designated with lower-case letter suffixes, e.g., C3a. Inactivated fragments may be designated with the suffix 'i', e.g. C3bi. Activated components or complexes with biological activity are designated by a bar over the symbol e.g. C1 or C4b,2a. The classic pathway is activated by the binding of C1 to classic pathway activators, primarily antigen-antibody complexes containing IgM, IgG1, IgG3; C1q binds to a single IgM molecule or two adjacent IgG molecules. The alternative pathway can be activated by IgA immune complexes and also by nonimmunologic materials including bacterial endotoxins, microbial polysaccharides, and cell walls. Activation of the classic pathway triggers an enzymatic cascade involving C1, C4, C2 and C3; activation of the alternative pathway triggers a cascade involving C3 and factors B, D and P. Both result in the cleavage of C5 and the formation of the membrane attack complex. Complement activation also results in the formation of many biologically active complement fragments that act as anaphylatoxins, opsonins, or chemotactic factors.
