The Crime Survey for England and Wales showed that an estimated 2.3 million adults aged 16 to 74 years experienced domestic abuse in the last year (1.6 million women and 757,000 men), a slight but non-significant decrease from the previous year
There was a 7% increase in police recorded offences flagged as domestic abuse-related between March and June 2020, compared with the same period in the previous year; however, there has been a gradual increase in these offences over recent years, therefore it cannot be determined whether this can be directly attributed to the coronavirus pandemic
Addressing domestic violence is a global public health priority in light of both the prevalence of domestic violence and the associated physical morbidity, psychological morbidity and mortality (World Health Organization, 2013). Domestic abuse can involve physical, sexual, psychological and financial components, as well as controlling or coercive acts and behaviours. Domestic violence, often referred to as intimate partner violence, disproportionately affects women, with nearly one in three women victimised by physical or sexual violence through their lifetimes (Devries, Mak, Bacchus, et al., 2013).
We used two waves of data collected from a sample of 1,175 young adults (ages 20–24) in Miami, Florida. Retrospective self-reports of witnessed abuse and measures of family context and adversities were obtained in 1998–2000. The respondents’ level of depressive symptoms was assessed 2 years later in 2000–2002.
Multivariate results indicate that frequently having witnessed domestic abuse predicts higher levels of depressive symptoms in young adulthood, independently of other risk factors for depression and family violence.
Studies estimate 10% to 20% of children are at risk of exposure to domestic abuse
These are general research I have found on different web sites about domestic on men and women and the effect on children.
