Intimate partner violence and cognitive functioning – toward quantifying dementia risk
IPV predicted lower average cognitive score over follow-up. Emotional abuse had the largest associations with cognitive score among subtypes. We found no differences in rate of cognitive score change by violence exposure. Even modest impacts of violence would translate to large population effects. Gendered experiences warrant additional research in understanding dementia risk.
