TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - The Influence of Trauma History and Relationship Power on Latinas' Sexual Risk for HIV/STIs JO - International journal of sexual health A1 - Randolph, Mary E.

Over half of the women reported a history of intimate partner violence in the past year and/or sexual abuse in their lifetime. Intimate partner violence was correlated with lower overall sexual relationship power scores, while sexual abuse was correlated with lower condom use negotiating power. More extensive intimate partner violence had the strongest association with higher HIV/STI risk, controlling for relationship status, sexual abuse, and relationship power.
