Abstract

Reproductive coercion (RC) is a type of intimate partner violence that includes birth control sabotage (BCS). We explored the perceived intent behind BCS to refine RC measurement, using a mixed-methods design with a clinic-based sample of Latina women (13 interviews; 482 surveys). Women perceived partners used BCS for reasons beyond pregnancy promotion. Specifically, 16.8% of participants reported any past-year RC; this decreased to 9.5% when asked if their partner used BCS with the sole intent of getting them pregnant. RC measures and assessment should separate behavior from intent in BCS questions to not underestimate the prevalence and to guide clinical response.

节育破坏动机与测量：拉丁裔妇女的混合方法分析。

生殖胁迫（RC）是亲密伴侣暴力的一种，包括破坏节育措施（BCS）。我们采用混合方法设计，以诊所为基础，对拉丁裔女性进行抽样调查（13 次访谈；482 份调查），探讨了 BCS 背后的认知意图，以完善 RC 测量方法。妇女认为伴侣使用 BCS 的原因不只是为了促进怀孕。具体来说，16.8% 的参与者报告了过去一年中的任何 RC 行为；当被问及其伴侣使用 BCS 的唯一目的是否是让她们怀孕时，这一比例下降到了 9.5%。在 BCS 问题中，RC 测量和评估应将行为与意图分开，以免低估流行率并指导临床应对措施。
