Approximately half of all victims of intimate partner violence are injured (Truman & Morgan, 2014). There are several different sociodemographic and incident related factors that increase the likelihood of victims being injured such as being a woman, having children present, and the perpetrator being under the influence of alcohol. In this webinar, presenters will outline results from a study examining police reports to predict visible injuries in victims of intimate partner violence in South Carolina. Specific recommendations will be discussed in regards to documentation of intimate partner violence in police reports.
