Survey reveals that only 22% of Israeli Arab Muslim women were asked about IPV during healthcare visits, suggesting a need for sensitive screening practices.
This study examined the factors influencing Israeli Arab Muslim women's cooperation with intimate partner violence (IPV) screening in healthcare settings. Two hundred women were surveyed to assess theory of reasoned action components, self-efficacy, and IPV screening knowledge. Results showed that 71% and 78% of women were not asked about IPV in community and hospital settings, respectively, despite expressing willingness to cooperate. Normative beliefs and subjective norms significantly influenced cooperation intentions, while self-efficacy did not correlate with intention. The study highlights the need for culturally sensitive screening practices and community-based interventions to address IPV among Israeli Arab Muslim women.
