abstract="This article examines non-partner violence among women who use methamphetamine (N = 322), recruited in an inner-city neighborhood of San Francisco. The combined prevalence of non-partner physical or sexual violence in the past 6 months was 28%, roughly equal to the prevalence of partner violence (26%). In multivariate analysis, factors associated with non-partner violence included frequent subsistence difficulty (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 2.43, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [1.3, 4.6]) and sex trade (AOR = 2.27, 95% CI = [1.4, 4.1]). Having a steady male partner was not protective against non-partner violence. Violence perpetrated by non-partners should be considered when assessing social and structural factors that influence women's health.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
