Risk factors for domestic violence: findings from a South African cross-sectional study
TL;DR: The findings suggest that domestic violence is most strongly related to the status of women in a society and to the normative use of violence in conflict situations or as part of the exercise of power.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gender inequalities, intimate partner violence and HIV preventive practices: findings of a South African cross-sectional study
TL;DR: Analysis of data from a cross-sectional study of a representative sample of women from three South African Provinces suggests that some indicators of gender inequalities are significantly associated with discussion of HIV and condom use but the direction of association found was both positive and negative.

Kristin Dunkle,Rachel Jewkes,Mzikazi Nduna,Jonathan Levin,Nwabisa Jama,Nelisiwe Khuzwayo,Mary P. Koss,Nata Duvvury +7 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Transactional sex with casual and main partners among young South African men in the rural Eastern Cape: prevalence, predictors, and associations with gender-based violence.
Kristin Dunkle,Rachel Jewkes,Mzikazi Nduna,Nwabisa Jama,Jonathan Levin,Yandisa Sikweyiya,Mary P. Koss +6 more
TL;DR: The strong and consistent association between perpetration of gender-based violence and both giving and getting material goods from female partners suggests that transactional sex in both main and casual relationships should be viewed within a broader continuum of men's exercise of gendered power and control.
