Mørk, Trine, Andersen, Pernille Tanggaard and Taket, Ann 2014, Barriers among Danish women and general practitioners to raising the issue of intimate partner violence in general practice: a qualitative study, BMC Womens health, vol. 14, Article number : 74, pp. 1-10, doi: 10.1186/1472-6874-14-74.
Thirty-five percent of Danish women experience sexual or physical violence in their lifetime. However, health care professionals are not in the practice of asking about intimate partner violence (IPV) in Denmark. It is currently unknown what hinders general practitioners from asking about partner violence and how Danish women would perceive such an inquiry. This aspect has not previously been explored in Denmark. An exploratory study was conducted to examine what hinders general practitioners (GPs) from asking and what Danish women's views and attitudes are regarding being asked about IPV.
