Notes:	Presents the methodology and results of a [US] study aimed at assessing the role of problem gambling and problem drinking in intimate partner violence and the relationship between these two suggested risk factors. Results confirm that problem drinking and gambling do increase the risk of domestic violence and that in combination, the likelihood of violence is even greater. Limitations of the study and other potential contributing factors are discussed and it is suggested that intervention strategies recognise the role of gambling and/or alcohol abuse in domestic violence.
