abstract="Intimate partner violence includes psychological aggression, physical violence, sexual violence, and stalking from a current or former intimate partner. Past  research suggests that exposure to intimate partner violence can impact cognitive  and psychological functioning, as well as neurological outcomes. These seem to be  compounded in those who suffer a brain injury as a result of trauma to the head,  neck or body due to physical and/or sexual violence. However, our understanding of  the neurobehavioral and neurobiological effects of head trauma in this population is  limited due to factors including difficulty in accessing/recruiting participants,  heterogeneity of samples, and premorbid and comorbid factors that impact outcomes. Thus, the goal of the Enhancing NeuroImaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis (ENIGMA)  Consortium Intimate Partner Violence Working Group is to develop a global  collaboration that includes researchers, clinicians, and other key community  stakeholders. Participation in the working group can include collecting harmonized  data, providing data for meta- and mega-analysis across sites, or stakeholder  insight on key clinical research questions, promoting safety, participant  recruitment and referral to support services. Further, to facilitate the  mega-analysis of data across sites within the working group, we provide suggestions  for behavioral surveys, cognitive tests, neuroimaging parameters, and genetics that  could be used by investigators in the early stages of study design. We anticipate  that the harmonization of measures across sites within the working group prior to  data collection could increase the statistical power in characterizing how intimate  partner violence-related head trauma impacts long-term physical, cognitive, and  psychological health.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
