Separated Women’s Risk for Intimate Partner Violence: A Multiyear Analysis Using the National Crime Victimization Survey

Abstract: The current study assesses the relative influence of various individual-level characteristics on the probability of intimate partner violence (IPV) for separated and nonseparated women. While previous studies have found that separated women do in fact have a higher risk for IPV than nonseparated women, these largely bivariate examinations of marital status and risk for IPV have often not considered the effect other characteristics may have on risk estimates. The current study uses the 1995-2010 National Crime … Show more

“…For example, studies elsewhere have shown that separation from one’s violent partner does not end the violence for women. Instead, married women experience a heightened risk of partner violence after separation [60, 61].

“…Nevertheless, most women do leave violent relationships eventually (DeKeseredy & Schwartz, 2009). Yet, women who leave violent partners are at increased risk of murder, sexual assault and other physical assaults (DeKeseredy & Schwartz, 2009; Rezey, 2017; Siddaque, 2016; Stark, 2007). Another very real obstacle for women who want to leave violent relationships, therefore, is fear of reprisal or even more dangerous abuse or murder should they leave.…”
