Partner Abuse Scale
The Partner Abuse Scale is a tool used by professionals to assess the extent and types of abuse a person may experience from a partner. It covers different forms of abuse, such as physical violence, emotional manipulation, and control tactics. By answering questions about recent experiences, individuals provide insights into the severity and pattern of abuse. This helps clinicians better understand the situation and develop appropriate support or safety plans. The scale is a confidential, standardized way to identify and measure partner abuse, promoting awareness and enabling effective intervention.
