  • Title: Intimate partner violence against Athabaskan women residing in interior Alaska: results of a victimization survey.
    Author: Wood DS, Magen RH.
    Journal: Violence Against Women; 2009 Apr; 15(4):497-507. PubMed ID: 19282519.
    Abstract:
    A survey instrument mirroring the National Violence Against Women Survey was administered in person to measure the incidence and prevalence of intimate partner violence against Athabaskan women residing in the interior of Alaska. Roughly two thirds of respondents (63.7%) reported an intimate partner assault victimization at some point in their adult lifetime, and 18% of the respondents reported that they had been physically assaulted by an intimate partner in the year preceding the survey. Findings revealed that intimate partner assault victimization is more prevalent and is considerably more frequent when compared to that reported for American women in general.
