DESCRIPTION (provided by investigator): Dr. Karin Rhodes, an Emergency Medicine physician, seeks a Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award from NIMH to create a systematic investigation of emergency department response to men involved in intimate partner violence. Most interventions in a health care setting address the victim's (generally women) behavior. This does not take into account the behavior of the perpetrators (generally men). Current assumptions and hypotheses about men involved in violent relationships are based on data from court-mandated batterers' treatment programs, not community health care settings where a broader range of violent behaviors might present and where perpetrators might be more amenable to interventions. Dr. Rhodes proposes to extend the computer screening and data collection methodologies she is currently using to identify at-risk women to assess if it is possible to identify the male perpetrators and/or male victims. (Dr. Rhodes' preliminary data suggests that screening men for victimization may also identify perpetrators). The proposed research plan includes a randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of a self-administered computer program that includes a screen for partner violence on emergency department communication outcomes. Secondary projects seek to validate the screen and conduct structured psychiatric interviews for DSM Axis I and II diagnoses, comparing men who screen positive to men who screen negative for personality traits, psychiatric co-morbidities, and abuse histories. The goal of the exploratory work is to evaluate whether any of the frameworks classifying perpetrators of partner violence apply to men screened in two socio-economically diverse ED settings. This information is crucial if effective interventions are to be designed and tested in this difficult to study population. As a former RWJ Clinical Scholar, Dr. Rhodes is in the position to bring to bear rigorous health services research skills on an extraordinarily complex problem. In so doing, she will gain the skills to commence a career as a clinical scientist whose clinical and research interests mutually inform one another.

描述（调查员提供）：Karin Rhodes博士，急诊医学 医师，寻求从NIMH到的指导的临床科学家发展奖 对急诊科对男性的反应进行系统的调查 参与亲密伴侣暴力。医疗保健的大多数干预措施 设置受害者（通常是妇女）行为的地址。这不接受 考虑到肇事者（通常是男人）的行为。当前的 关于参与暴力关系的男人的假设和假设是 基于法院规定的殴打者治疗计划的数据，而不是社区 医疗保健环境可能会出现更广泛的暴力行为 肇事者可能更适合干预措施。罗德博士 建议扩展她的计算机筛选和数据收集方法 目前正在用来识别处于危险的妇女以评估是否可以 确定男性肇事者和/或男性受害者。 （罗德博士的初步 数据表明，筛查男性对受害的人也可能确定 肇事者）。 拟议的研究计划包括一项随机对照试验，以评估 一个自我管理的计算机程序的效果，其中包括一个屏幕 伴侣暴力在急诊室沟通成果中。次要 项目旨在验证屏幕并进行结构化精神病学 DSM轴I和II诊断的访谈，比较筛选阳性的男人 对于那些对人格特质，精神病合并症的男性， 和滥用历史。探索性工作的目的是评估是否 伴侣暴力的任何分类肇事者适用于男性的框架 在两个社会经济多样化的环境中进行筛选。此信息是 如果要在此设计和测试有效的干预措施至关重要 难以研究人群。作为前RWJ临床学者，罗德博士是 能够使严格的卫生服务研究技能 非常复杂的问题。这样，她将获得技能 从临床和研究兴趣的临床科学家开始职业 相互通知。
