TY - JOUR PY - 2004// TI - Intimate partner violence in American Indian and/or Alaska Native communities: a social ecological framework of determinants and interventions JO - American Indian and Alaska Native mental health research A1 - Oetzel, John A1 - Duran, Bonnie SP - 49 EP - 68 VL - 11 IS - 3 N2 - This essay synthesizes the research on intimate partner violence (IPV) in American Indian and/or Alaska Native communities using a social ecological framework. The review of literature demonstrates that American Indian and/or Alaska Native women are at an elevated risk for IPV compared to non-American Indian women and thus this essay describes multi-level interventions that are culturally appropriate for American Indian and/or Alaska Native communities. The interventions address a variety of determinants including gender, age, socioeconomic status, alcohol, European colonization, and infrastructure.
