“…These potential viable mechanisms are currently largely untested empirically. Further, critical theory may also help conceptualize the association between ACEs and IPV, such that both ACEs and IPV may occur as a result of intersecting sources of oppression including those related to racism and sexism (Crenshaw, 1991;Kelly, 2011;Williams-Butler et al, 2022). Thus, stronger understanding of the mechanisms accounting for the association between ACEs and IPV are needed.…”

Intimate partner violence (IPV) represents a significant public health concern. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) represent one risk factor for IPV, however, the results of existing research on the association between ACEs and IPV demonstrate mixed findings. The present research sought to meta-analytically examine the association between ACEs and (a) IPV perpetration and (b) IPV victimization. Moderator analyses were conducted to determine factors that may impact the association between ACEs and IPV involvement. Electronic searches were conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, and PsycINFO in August of 2021. One-hundred and twenty-three records were screened for inclusion. All studies included a measure of ACEs and IPV victimization or perpetration. Among the 27 studies and 41 samples included in the meta-analysis, 65,330 participants were included. The results of the meta-analyses demonstrated that ACEs were positively associated with IPV perpetration and victimization. Significant methodological and measurement moderators further inform our understanding of ACEs and IPV involvement. The present meta-analyses demonstrates that trauma-informed approaches to IPV screening, prevention, and intervention may be useful, given that individuals who are involved with IPV may be more likely to possess a history of ACEs exposure.

“…However, there is little research on interventions that focus on both the culturally responsive and gender-responsive needs of Black adolescent girls with the goal of identifying factors that protect the mental health and well-being of Black girls in clinical interventions (Loyd et al, 2022). This is especially true related to contexts where they are particularly disadvantaged (Crenshaw et al, 2015; 2022). This study reviews contextual reasons that affirm the necessity of interventions that center on Black adolescent girls and further identifies current approaches found in the literature designed to promote the success and well-being of Black girls in society.…”

Purpose: Few interventions focus on the unique developmental contexts specific to Black adolescent girls living in the United States. This article conducts a scoping review to identify interventions targeted at the well-being of Black adolescent girls. Method: The authors conducted a comprehensive search using electronic databases to identify peer-reviewed journal articles that center interventions to address the well-being of Black adolescent girls. Results: Of the 3,144 unique records identified, eight peer-reviewed articles met the criteria for inclusion. Most interventions focused on issues related to sexual health ( n = 4), followed by interventions focusing on enhancing cultural values ( n = 3), and obesity prevention ( n = 1). Four interventions were both culturally and gender-responsive, three interventions were primarily culturally responsive, and one intervention was primarily gender-responsive with all articles focusing on Black girls’ well-being. Discussion: More interventions are needed that center on the distinct and intersectional challenges and strengths that Black adolescent girls experience within society.
