Identification of Abuse and Health Consequences for Military and Civilian Women

Abstract

This study is examining abuse prevalence and its physical and mental health consequences in samples of 200 military women and 200 HMO women. At the beginning of the study's third year, we have completed 1138 civilian screenings, yielding 119 cases and 159 controls. Remaining interviews will be completed on an expanded sample of civilian women by 12/98. Civilian women are white European (WE) (47%) and African American (AA) (47%) with 6% other minorities. Generally, they are employed, have middle class incomes and a high school education or more.
