Results from the multivariable analysis, full model showing significant factors at individual- and context-level and lifetime physical intimate partner violence (pIPV) from demographic and health survey, 2022–2023, Mozambique.
Fig 1.
The prevalence of lifetime intimate partner violence (pIPV) among women in Mozambique, based on the 2022-2023 DHS study (N = 4813). The Lifetime prevalence of pIPV was 21.92% across the population.
Fig 2.
Provincial variation in the prevalence of lifetime intimate partner violence (pIPV) among women in Mozambique, as reported in the 2022-2023 DHS study (N = 4813). Results highlight the highest prevalence in Manica and the lowest in Niassa. Map generated using open-source geographic data from rnaturalearth (Natural Earth) and IPV prevalence data from DHS 2023.

Interaction plot showing the predicted probabilities of experiencing Lifetime pIPV across education levels and marital statuses.
Higher education reduces the likelihood of Lifetime pIPV, especially for married women, while those living with a partner or separated show consistently higher probabilities of pIPV.
