NCT00457522

Brief Summary

Although abuse by an intimate partner is very common and has serious negative effects on women's health, few studies have been done to test ways to increase safety for women in abusive relationships. This study will test a telephone intervention for women who report physical, emotional, and/or sexual abuse within the past 12 months, to see if

  • women use more safety behaviors and access more community resources
  • chronic pain, fatigue, depressive, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms affect a women's ability to use safety behaviors and access community resources.
