Half (51%) of ever-partnered Kiribati women experienced physical IPV from an ex\/partner in their lifetime, one quarter experienced sexual IPV (24%) and 46% psychological IPV. Women aged 15\u201324 years reported higher rates of physical and\/or sexual IPV over their lifetime and within the last year. Women who had experienced IPV from their partner in the last 12 months were significantly less likely to show unmet need for spacing or limiting (46.5%) than women who had not experienced any IPV (53.5%) and were more likely to be using a modern method of contraception (31%) than women who had not experienced IPV (26%).

In order to overcome the difficulties faced by young women, women in remote areas and those experiencing IPV, health-care providers would benefit from further training and information on the issues around IPV.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12905-024-03484-3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,5]],"date-time":"2025-02-05T07:29:16Z","timestamp":1738740556000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The intersection of intimate partner violence with sexual reproductive health in the Pacific: findings from a Kiribati population study"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"25","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0887-2199","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anneliese","family":"Spiteri-Staines","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1748-6436","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luz Viviana Sastre","family":"Gomez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0374-6305","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jess","family":"Letch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3328-4375","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anna","family":"Bornemisza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kristin","family":"Diemer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"3484_CR1","unstructured":"Office KNS.
