However, psychological violence and its relationship with HIV risk behaviors have received limited attention among African American\/Black (Black) women. This study examined (a) the frequency of recent (past 3 months) psychological violence, physical violence, and sexual violence and (b) the association of HIV risk behaviors, including unprotected sex, sex under the influence of alcohol\/drugs, and sex exchange for money\/drugs\/shelter, with psychological violence. Participants included 191 women (89.2% Black), who were recruited through information sessions held at community centers, Parent Teacher Association meetings, substance use and HIV counseling centers, radio public service announcements, and word of mouth. Interested women participated in a multisession HIV and substance use prevention program and completed a self-reported assessment at program baseline. The current study utilized baseline data collected for a longitudinal study. Results from descriptive analysis indicated that the rate of psychological violence was higher than physical violence or sexual violence, and it was strongly associated with physical and sexual violence. Furthermore, hierarchical logistic regression analysis showed that unprotected sex was significantly associated with recent psychological violence after controlling for covariates. Findings suggest that recent psychological violence is more common than physical or sexual violence and it relates to sexual risk behaviors among Black women. Recent psychological violence may indicate psychosocial and sexual vulnerability for HIV and warrants particular attention among Black women.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0886260517720734","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,28]],"date-time":"2017-07-28T02:14:58Z","timestamp":1501208098000},"page":"5574-5588","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Psychological Violence and Sexual Risk Behavior Among Predominantly African American Women"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Bina","family":"Ali","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Maryland, College Park, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mona","family":"Mittal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Maryland, College Park, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Allison","family":"Schroder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Maryland, College Park, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Najah","family":"Ishman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Strategic Community Services, Inc., Annapolis, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sylvia","family":"Quinton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Strategic Community Services, Inc., Annapolis, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bradley","family":"Boekeloo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Maryland, College Park, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0886260517720734","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1023\/B:JOTS.0000048954.50232.d8"},{"key":"bibr2-0886260517720734","unstructured":"Black M.
