The Diana Screen Questions are a set of questions designed to assess the risk of intimate partner violence (IPV) in relationships. Developed by Dr. Jacqueline Campbell, these questions aim to identify the presence of abuse and violence in relationships and help victims seek support and protection.
Intimate partner violence is a pervasive issue that affects millions of people worldwide. It encompasses physical, sexual, and emotional abuse by a current or former partner. The Diana Screen Questions provide a valuable tool to healthcare professionals, social workers, and advocates to identify and address cases of IPV effectively.
By asking the right questions, professionals can create a safe and supportive environment for victims to disclose their experiences and receive the necessary support and interventions. The Diana Screen Questions have been extensively researched and validated, making them a crucial tool in the fight against intimate partner violence.
