dc.description.notes | Investigated the effects of domestic violence on the emotional and mental well being of women, and the risk factors for women developing post traumatic psychiatric disorders following domestic violence. Also examines the link between adult and child abuse, and mental health. Research study sample consisted of 335 women aged 16-74 years who presented at the Emergency Department of Royal Brisbane Hospital, or were referred from the community. Participants completed questionnaires, and participated in in-depth interviews. Findings indicate women who reported both child and adult abuse were particularly at risk, as they had the highest rates of all psychiatric diagnoses. Those who reported any form of intimate abuse also received significantly more diagnoses than those with no reported abuse. Highlights the need for mental health professionals to be aware of the possibility of previous or current violence as a underlying factor of a woman’s disorder. | en |
