Dean Judy L. Postmus, PhD, ACSW, and colleagues have a new paper published in the Journal of Interpersonal Violence. The purpose of this study was to answer two research questions: (a) Is there a relationship between the experience of economic abuse and food insecurity (as a measure of poverty)? (b) Is the relationship between economic abuse and food insecurity impacted by women’s education, women’s and men’s employment, women’s attitudes towards gender relations, or women’s depressive symptoms?
