Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: The purpose of this study was to examine factors affecting depression trait among male intimate partner violence (IPV) victims in Japan utilizing a multiple linear regression analysis.
UNASSIGNED: A web-based questionnaire survey was conducted. Male IPV victims living in Japan were recruited to answer the questionnaire on the website on February 25-26, 2021. A total of 16,414 subjects were enrolled, of whom 1466 respondents were included in the study. Other than IPV exposure, information about sociodemographic characteristics, past traumatic experiences and psychiatric history was collected. The Domestic Violence Screening Inventory (DVSI), a 20-item questionnaire regarding IPV exposure, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used to determine the intensity and the type of IPV harm and to screen for depression, respectively.
UNASSIGNED: The victims were more frequently subject to psychological abuse than to physical violence. Based on PHQ-9 scores, 10.7% of respondents exhibited moderate to severe depression. In the DVSI score, 79.2% of respondents required \"observation and support.\" The lowest level of academic attainment (junior high school), positive psychiatric history, foregoing divorce to avoid adverse childhood experiences of their offspring, childhood exposure to domestic violence, younger age, having no children, and experience of school bullying were shown to be significantly associated with depression trait.
UNASSIGNED: Male IPV harm has a multilayered complexity. The sociodemographic characteristics and experiences of victims\' own have a greater impact on depression trait than direct violent harm, suggesting that the violence-focused support might be inadequate for male victims. Comprehensive supports are urgently needed.
摘要:
这项研究的目的是利用多元线性回归分析,研究影响日本男性亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)受害者抑郁特征的因素。
进行了基于网络的问卷调查。2021年2月25日至26日,居住在日本的男性IPV受害者被招募在网站上回答问卷。共纳入16,414名受试者,其中1466名受访者被纳入研究。除了IPV暴露,有关社会人口特征的信息,收集了过去的创伤经历和精神病史。家庭暴力筛查清单(DVSI)关于IPV暴露的20项问卷,和患者健康问卷-9(PHQ-9)用于确定IPV危害的强度和类型,并筛查抑郁症,分别。
受害者更经常遭受心理虐待而不是身体暴力。根据PHQ-9的分数,10.7%的受访者表现出中度至重度抑郁症。在DVSI评分中,79.2%的受访者要求“观察和支持”。“最低的学业水平(初中),阳性精神病史,放弃离婚以避免后代的不良童年经历,童年遭受家庭暴力,年龄较小,没有孩子,学校欺凌的经历被证明与抑郁特征显著相关。
男性IPV伤害具有多层复杂性。与直接暴力伤害相比,受害者自身的社会人口统计学特征和经历对抑郁特征的影响更大,这表明,以暴力为重点的支持可能不足以为男性受害者。迫切需要全面的支持。
