| Abstrakt: | Competing Interests: Declarations. Ethics approval and consent to participate: All participants provided consent to NORC for inclusion in the survey panel at the time of enrollment, and they could opt out of the panel at any time. Participants are also able to opt out of the VEX surveys entirely or at any time during survey participation. All study procedures were reviewed and approved by institutional review boards at the University of Chicago, University of California San Diego, and Tulane University. Study procedures we conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Consent for publication: Not applicable. Competing interests: The authors declare no competing interests. Objective: To assess associations between recent intimate partner violence (IPV) (victimization and perpetration) on firearm ownership and recent firearm purchase. Methods: Analysis of statewide online surveys on violence conducted in 2023 in California and Louisiana, respectively. We examine whether past year IPV was associated with firearm ownership using regression models adjusting for sociodemographic covariates and mental health. Survey participants were adults from California (N = 3,560), with data collected between March and May 2023 and Louisiana (N = 1,081), collected between May and June 2023. Results: In fully adjusted models, IPV victimization was associated with three times higher odds of current firearm ownership (AOR 2.93, 95% CI 1.80-4.77, p < 0.001), and IPV perpetration was associated with 10 times higher odds of ownership (AOR 9.85, 95% CI 3.95-25.59, p < 0.001). IPV victimization was associated with three times higher odds of past year firearm purchase (AOR 3.15, 95% CI 1.90-5.22, p < 0.001), and perpetration was associated with five times higher odds of purchase (AOR 4.98, 95% CI 2.32-10.65, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Findings indicate those experiencing and perpetrating IPV are significantly more likely to report firearm ownership and recent purchase of a firearm. (© 2025. The Author(s).) |
