The prevalence and determinants of emotional, physical and sexual violence from a partner among HIV-positive individuals attending HIV care in greater Gugulethu area of Cape Town, South Africa

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 68-79). / South Africa has high levels of both HIV/AIDS and intimate partner violence (IPV) among women. Research on the links between HIV/AIDS and IPV show that women who experience IPV are nearly two times more likely to be HIV-positive compared to women who do not. While there is increasing evidence on HIV-positive status disclosure-related IPV, studies are unclear on whether IPV is higher among HIV-positive women.
