Lay Summary :
People with mental disorders are at increased risk of experiencing domestic violence and abuse (DVA), and there is preliminary evidence to suggest that these patients are also at higher risk of perpetrating physical DVA. We will develop and validate mechanisms to identify recorded (i) DVA victimisation; (ii) DVA perpetration; and (iii) childhood abuse from medical records text fields. We will then describe characteristics of service users whose records report these experiences.
