Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: To determine the extent of career-long and 12-month exposure to sexual, physical, and psychological/verbal violence committed by patients or their companions among physical therapists in Spain. Additionally, to identify the factors associated with such exposure.
UNASSIGNED: This study employed an observational cross-sectional approach. Initially, a questionnaire was developed and validated using a convenience sample. Subsequently, it was distributed via email to all physical therapists registered in Spain in the first quarter of 2022. Individual risk models were created for each type of violence experienced within the past 12 months.
UNASSIGNED: The prevalence of violence encountered by physical therapists throughout their careers was 47.9% for sexual violence, 42.7% for psychological/verbal abuse, and 17.6% for physical abuse. Lower values were observed within the last 12 months (13.4%, 15.8%, and 5.2%, respectively). Statistical risk modeling for each type of violence experienced in the past 12 months indicated that the common precipitating factor for all forms of violence was working with patients with cognitive impairment. Working part-time appeared to be a protective factor. Other factors, such as the practitioners\' gender, practice setting, or clinic location showed variations among the diverse types of violence.
UNASSIGNED: The exposure to type II workplace violence within the last 12 months among physical therapists in Spain (Europe) is not so high as in some other world regions. Various individual, clinical, and professional/organizational risk factors have been identified in connection with type II workplace violence. Further research is warranted to compare the violence experienced once the COVID pandemic has subsided.

摘要：
目的：为了确定职业生涯和12个月暴露于性行为的程度，在西班牙的物理治疗师中，患者或其同伴实施的身体和心理/言语暴力。此外,确定与这种暴露相关的因素。
方法：本研究采用观察性横断面方法。最初，使用便利样本开发并验证了问卷.随后，它通过电子邮件分发给2022年第一季度在西班牙注册的所有物理治疗师。针对过去12个月内经历的每种类型的暴力创建了个人风险模型。
结果：物理治疗师在其职业生涯中遇到的暴力发生率为47.9％，42.7%为心理/言语虐待，身体虐待占17.6%。在过去12个月内观察到较低的值(13.4%，15.8%和5.2%，分别)。过去12个月中经历的每种类型暴力的统计风险模型表明，所有形式暴力的共同促成因素都与认知障碍患者有关。兼职工作似乎是一个保护因素。其他因素,例如从业者的性别，练习设置,或诊所位置显示不同类型的暴力之间的差异。
结论：西班牙（欧洲）的物理治疗师在过去12个月内暴露于II型工作场所暴力并不像世界其他一些地区那么高。各种个人，临床,已确定与II型工作场所暴力有关的专业/组织风险因素。有必要进行进一步的研究，以比较COVID大流行消退后发生的暴力事件。
