Abstract

Digital technologies have proliferated in the health sector in recent years, driven by the hope that they could offer solutions to many of the complex challenges faced in our daily lives.1 In the field of violence against women, there has been a parallel burgeoning of web-based interventions for prevention and responses. This diverse range of web-based interventions for violence against women has included open source mapping of sexual violence exposure, mobile device applications (apps) and websites providing information on services for survivors of violence, safety assessment and planning tools, relationship support interventions, and interventions promoting perpetration-related behaviour changes for men.

  • Interest in developing online interventions for women experiencing IPV has recently emerged, in part, because of their potential to be tailored and to reduce practical or perceived barriers to assistance, such as lack of services, a desire for privacy, or stigma.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
