520 _a"This study analyzes data from a national, general population sample of respondents (National Violence Against Women Survey) to estimate the prevalence of the different forms of intimate partner violence (IPV) that women experience in the United States. The study's purpose, to differentiate types of IVP, follows the Johnson and Ferraro tradition that distinguishes occasional and random acts of abuse from chronic and controlling forms of violence. When examining the specific types of IVP that the survey respondents disclosed, the author finds that the distribution closely resembles Gordon's epidemiological findings. This study analyzed the variance in the number of types of IVP as a function of childhood abuse the women experienced and their partner's controlling and threatening behaviors. It concludes with a discussion on the multiple responses to IVP that are necessary in contemporary U.S. society."--JOURNAL ABSTRACT
