臺灣親密關係暴力危險評估表（TIPVDA）之建構與驗證
摘要
This study aims to develop an intimate partner violence lethality assessment instrument which will be provided to the practioner, including police officer, social workers and health ca re providers etc., to assess the likelihood of lethality or near lethality of victims. Based on reviewing literature, exited danger assessment instruments, and archival information or 80 femicide and attempted femicide cases, and discussing with practioners ancl scholars, this study constructed a pool of potential predictors, and formed a questionnaire. The samples (N=773) are intimate partner victims who asked for help from 51 police precincts and hospitals in 22 cities and counties. As a result of empirical analyses, a 15 items scale was constructed and named Taiwan Intimate Partner Violence Danger Assessment (TIPVDA). The TIPVDA score above 8 is the index of high risk category. The empirical resilts suggest that the TIPVDA was administered reliably, and they provide significant evidence of the concurrent, discriminant, and criterion-related validity of this instrument Implicaitons for future research and utilization of the TIPVDA are discussed.
