Abstract
RIVERA-RIVERA, Leonor et al. Encodat 2016: Intimate partner violence and the use of tobacco, alcohol and drugs. New challenges for mental health. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2021, vol.63, n.5, pp.630-640. Epub Feb 27, 2023. ISSN 0036-3634. https://doi.org/10.21149/12288.
Objective:
Estimate the prevalence of intimate partner violence by sex and the association with tobacco, alcohol, and drugs use in Mexico.
Materials and methods:
A cross-sectional study of the 2016 National Survey on Drug, Alcohol, and Tobacco Consumption included 34 861 people aged 12 to 65 years old. Logistic regression models were estimated obtaining odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).
Results:
The prevalence of intimate partner violence was 15.14%, 18.16% in women, and 11.89% in men. The factors associated were: binge drinking (OR:1.64; 95%CI 1.38-1.96), tobacco consumption (OR: 1.71; 95%CI 1.42-2.07), use of psychotropic drugs without a prescription (OR:3.72; 95%CI 1.76-7.88) and marijuana use (OR: 3.06; 95%CI 1.58-5.91).
Conclusions:
The findings support the need to implement multisectoral interventions and strengthen psychosocial competencies to improve the quality and access to mental health and addiction services in Mexico.
