Family and partner interpersonal violence among American Indians/Alaska Natives

Abstract: Family and partner interpersonal violence are common among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations. AI/AN women have the second highest prevalence of violence against women among all racial/ethnic groups in the United States, and child abuse prevalence rates in AI/AN populations are among the highest. Elder abuse in AI/AN is also an important concern, although data on this are sparse. This review describes the epidemiology of child abuse, violence against women, and elder abuse among AI/AN, including… Show more

“…Furthermore-reflecting data collected in the survey on alcohol use by male partners-alcohol abuse is assumed to significantly increase IPV (Messing & Thaller, 2014;Reingle, Jennings, Connell, Businelle, & Chartier, 2014;Sapra, Jubinski, Tanaka, & Gershon, 2014;WHO, 2006). The literature provides several reasons for the correlation of alcohol consumption and increased IPV.…”

“…The excess risk of injury in AI/AN represents one of the most pronounced and understudied health disparities. To facilitate injury control research and practice in this underserved population, Sapra et al ( 2014 ) provide a comprehensive review of the epidemiologic literature on interpersonal violence in AI/AN by benchmarking the prevalence of child abuse, violence against women, and elder abuse, identifying the risk factors, and outlining the research gaps.…”

“…The findings suggest that further research is needed to elucidate the factors that underlie these racial/ethnic differences in IPV frequency. Historical trauma, structural violence, and inequalities likely contribute to IPV disparities among Blacks/African Americans [ 46 ] and Native Americans [ 47 ].…”
