dc.description.notesThe recent series of review papers on domestic violence in the Journal has dealt with a number of important themes: the impact of domestic violence on individuals;1 characteristics of perpetrators;2 presentation of domestic violence in clinical settings;3 and what can be done about domestic violence.4 The prevalence of domestic violence is difficult to estimate because of the variability of definitions and ways of measuring it and the lack of systematic epidemiological studies. Rates tend to be high among patients presenting to general practitioners,5 antenatal clinics,6 emergency departments7 and mental health services,8 but in each of these settings detection is poor. While studies are often developed within a feminist frame of reference and have mostly emphasised the impact on women, men may also be subject to violence from women, as may partners in same-sex relationships. Its impact on children is also substantial, both through witnessing violence and experiencing the effects of abused and abusing parents.9 Focusing on physical abuse as the key indicator may fail to identify far more damaging emotional abuse. <br/ > There are major health and economic costs of domestic violence.10 Both physical and mental health are affected, increasing the risk of suicide-related behaviours, the drain on healthcare resources and negative perceptions of health status.8,10<br/ >Cited By (since 1996):5Export Date: 23 July 2013Source: Scopusen
