N2  - A number of studies have reported that college students and individuals with disabilities are at risk for experiencing intimate partner victimization (IPV). Little is known about IPV among the intersection of these populations, college students with disabilities. Using data from a nationally representative sample of college students, this study estimates the extent of IPV among male and female college students with and without disabilities. Both males and females with disabilities experienced a greater risk of IPV than those without disability, and this risk appeared to be similar across the sexes. Furthermore, disability was a significant predictor of negative mental health outcomes among male and female IPV victims. Policy and prevention implications that take into consideration gender and disability are discussed.<p />
