Family Planning Providers' Assessment of Intimate Partner Violence and Substance Use.
Journal of women's health (2002), 2021Co-Authors: Amber L. Hill, Elizabeth Miller, Sonya Borrero, Sarah Zelazny, Summer Miller-walfish, Janine M. Talis, Galen E. Switzer, Kaleab Z. Abebe, Judy C. ChangAbstract:Background: Intimate partner violence (IPV) and substance use are intersecting health problems that adversely impact sexual and reproductive health outcomes for women seeking care at family planning (FP) clinics. We aimed to characterize whether and how FP clinic providers (1) assessed for IPV and substance use and (2) combined IPV and substance use assessments. Methods: Providers and patients (female, 18-29 years old, English speaking) at four FP clinics participating in a larger randomized controlled trial on provider communication skills were eligible. Providers received training on Universal Education, a research-informed IPV assessment approach. Visits were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim, and coded by two independent coders. We used inductive and deductive coding to assess providers' communication approaches and examined codes for patterns and categories. We then converted these approaches into variables to calculate frequencies among recorded visits. Results: Ninety-eight patient-provider encounters were analyzed. In almost all encounters (90/98), providers assessed for IPV. Many providers adopted best practice IPV assessment techniques, such as Universal Education (68/98) and normalizing/framing statements (45/98). Tobacco use screening was common (70/98), but alcohol (17/98) and other drug use screening (17/98) were rare. In only one encounter did a provider discuss IPV and substance use as intersecting health problems. Conclusion: This study provides insight on how FP clinicians, as key providers for millions of women in the United States, assess patients for IPV and substance use. Results show providers' willingness to adopt IPV Universal Education messaging and demonstrate room for improvement in substance use assessments and integrated discussions of IPV and substance use. Trial Registration Number: NCT01459458.

Intimate Partner Violence in the Adolescent
Pediatrics in review, 2020Co-Authors: Ellen S. Rome, Elizabeth MillerAbstract:Intimate partner violence among adolescents (also called adolescent relationship abuse or teen dating violence) is common and is associated with poor health and social outcomes. Pediatric providers are uniquely positioned to offer Universal Education (anticipatory guidance) about healthy and unhealthy relationships to all their adolescent patients. Pediatric practices can ensure that youth know about available resources and supports for relationship abuse (for themselves or for their friends) and can facilitate safe connections to victim service advocates.

Comparing government and private schools in Pakistan: The way forward for Universal Education
International Journal of Educational Research, 2017Co-Authors: Nadia Siddiqui, Stephen GorardAbstract:This paper presents an analysis of children’s proficiency in English, reading and maths on the basis of a citizen-led household survey run by the Annual Statistics of Education Report (ASER) in Pakistan in 2014. Our main analysis involves a sub-group of 26,070 children who were reported to be 8 years-old at the time of the survey. It was important for our purposes that this survey collected equivalent data on children in public, private and religious schools, as well as those not attending school at all. Unsurprisingly, the main difference in outcomes is between those children who attend school, and those who do not. Those missing out on school are more likely to be girls, and from poorer families in rural areas. For those who attend school, there are differences between state-funded and private school intakes, in terms of family background and test results. A binary logistic regression analysis is used to help assess the relationship between attending different types of schools and children’s attainment of a specific proficiency level. Once their different student intakes are taken into account, the difference in test outcomes between government and private schools largely disappears. The worst outcomes are associated with the small proportion of children educated only in Madrasahs. The paper ends by proposing that policy-makers press for enforcement of schooling for all, aiming for a Universal state-funded system with equivalent opportunities for all, meaning that the stop gap of cheap private schools in poorer areas is no longer necessary.
