N2  - Our aim in this comparison study was to describe the continuation of domestic violence and to assess changes in the association among family functioning, health, and social support for participants who have or have not experienced violence for the years 2012 and 2015. We collected the data using a family functioning, health, and social support (FAFHES) questionnaire. We collected the baseline questionnaires (<i>N</i> = 188) from patients who visited a Finnish central hospital and mailed the follow-up survey (<i>N</i> = 71). The prevalence of violence remained constant. However, the violence varied and changed. Our findings should encourage health care professionals to better identify and intervene in violence.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
