摘要

This study examined the frequency, severity, and consequences of intimate partner violence against an availability sample of Athabaskan women residing in the interior of Alaska. Data about victimization experiences as well as cultural involvement, residential mobility, living arrangements, social cohesion, alcohol use, and post-traumatic stress were gathered through interviews. Intimate partner victimization was more prevalent and more frequent when compared to what has been reported by the National Violence Against Women Survey.
