Abstract | ||
Background: Domestic violence is an abuse of power where one person uses power over another person and it is a violation of a person's human rights. Aim of the study: Assess the physical health problems related to domestic violence among primary school children at Beni-Suef City. Research design: Descriptive research design was used to achieve the aim of the current study. Sample: A convenience sample. Setting: Khaled Ibn Al-Walid in Abd El salam Arif and Al Ajami Primary schools in Al-Rahba. Tool: Two tools were used to achieve the aim of this study, First Tool: A Structured interviewing questionnaire which consisted of three parts to assess personnel characteristics of primary school children, general data about family, primary school children's knowledge regarding domestic violence, Second Tool: Childhood Exposure to Domestic Violence Scale (CEDV) by Linda Chamberlain, 2016. Result: The study showed that, 22.0% of the studied participants had a good level of knowledge regarding the domestic violence, 77.3% of the studied participants had experienced low domestic abuse and 81.3% of the studied participants had a medium impact of domestic violence. Conclusion: The result of the current study revealed that there was a highly significant positive association between their total abuse score and their impact of violence score which means a negative association between studied participant’s knowledge and abuse and impact of domestic violence. Recommendation: Further research studies should be undertaken to investigate the domestic violence confounding factors among school students to tailor and implement adequate prevention programs. | ||
