Initially my research described the breadth and depth of battered women’s and their children’s multidimensional responses to violence. However, more recently my research has focused on the impact of diverse types of traumatic exposures including intimate partner violence on women’s health including exploration into mechanisms of action that underlie women’s symptoms.
