Description
Melissa Macri, Jihan Abbas, and six colleagues review screening and intervention tools for older women facing intimate partner and family violence, in a paper published in two thousand twenty-three. Such violence hits women of all ages. Yet research has largely skipped older populations, and older women face extra barriers to reporting abuse.
The scoping review searched six major databases plus grey literature sources. It had two aims. The first was to judge how useful and suitable existing tools are for women aged fifty-five and over. The second was to map the gaps in policy, practice, and research. Scoping reviews chart a field rather than test one treatment. By gathering what exists, the authors show where tools designed for younger women may misfit older lives. The review is meant to guide better screening and support for a group whose abuse often stays hidden.
