Survey Study Examines Prevalence Of Intimate Partner Violence Among Young Men

Healio (8/27, Miller) reports, “Almost 20% of young men in the United States are perpetrators of intimate partner violence, or IPV, and more than a quarter are victims of it,” investigators concluded after examining “responses from a cross-sectional, nationally representative online survey of 916 men aged 18 to 35 years.” What’s more, the survey revealed that just “13% of the survey’s respondents said a physician had asked them if they had ever been a victim of IPV.” The findings were published in the July issue of the Annals of Family Medicine.
