Learning Objectives:
- be able to identify the strengths and limitations of the Life History Calendar method
- be able to understand Asian women’s experiences of intimate partner violence and help-seeking efforts over the lifecourse and their variations
- be able to formulate socioculturally relevant health care outreach programs
Using the Life History Calendar method and multilevel modeling, we examined the lifecourse trajectories of Asian women’s experiences of intimate partner violence and help-seeking efforts. The substantial variations by cohort point to the importance of tailoring assistance programs to subgroups of women.
