Scientific Program Report

Learning Objectives:
  1. Describe the health and safety outcomes of IPV survivors enrolled in the IRIS study.
  2. Discuss the implications of the IRIS study findings on practice and research with IPV survivors.
Description:
The overall purpose of the IRIS study was to test the effectiveness of a safety decision aid compared with usual safety planning (control) delivered through a secure website, using a multi-state randomized controlled trial design. The study outcomes include reduced decisional conflict about safety, increased safety behaviors, reduced repeat IPV and improved mental health for survivors.
