Regional Variations and Determinants of Physical Intimate Partner Violence in Nigeria
Background: In spite of the need to prevent and mitigate varying occurrences of physical intimate partner violence (IPV) in different regions of the country, regional determinants of physical IPV in Nigeria have remain unexplored.

description | Background: In spite of the need to prevent and mitigate varying
occurrences of physical intimate partner violence (IPV) in different
regions of the country, regional determinants of physical IPV in
Nigeria have remain unexplored. The study, therefore, examines the
regional variations of the prevalence and determinants of physical
intimate partner violence in Nigeria. Method: Data was from the 2013
Demographic and Health Survey of Nigeria, which was conducted in all 36
states of Nigeria, and Abuja. A composite index of physical intimate
partner violence was used as the outcome variable. Data analysis
involved descriptive statistics, mapping, and binary logistic
regression. Results: On National level, 16.25% of respondents had
experienced physical IPV while regional variations in physical IPV was
found across the regions with South-South having the highest prevalence
(27.10%). The most significant determinants of physical intimate
partner violence at the national level, and across the regions were
shown to be: high level of alcohol intake by some husbands, increase in
the number of co-wives, increased parity, wealth index, and low levels
of women education. Conclusion: This study recommends sensitization of
the public on the negative consequences of excessive alcohol intake,
and practice of polygamy, on physical IPV. |
