New life sciences findings from University of North Texas published.(Report)
"Violence against women has been recognized as an important social and human rights issue that affects all cultures and societies. Although this issue has been more frequently studied in high-income countries, such as the United States, the scholarly research of violence against women in Africa, especially West Africa, has been scarce," investigators in the United States report (see also Life Sciences).
"Using a representative sample, this study examined violence against women in Togo, particularly the types of violence that Togolese women endure, and factors that affect a Togolese woman's chance of being victimized by her intimate partner. The findings indicated that Togolese women experienced different forms of violence. Also, some covariates at the individual level significantly affected a woman's risk of experiencing intimate partner violence," wrote A.R. Moore and colleagues, University of North Texas.
