Children who witness intimate-partner violence (IPV) in their households often suffer serious effects.

We looked for improvement in the relationships between (1) IPV and children’s QOL, (2) IPV and primary caregivers’ depressive symptoms, and (3) family function that would be associated with children’s QOL. From February–March 2018, a cross-sectional study using self-report questionnaires was conducted throughout Japan with parents of children aged ≤19 years. From this survey, the data from 884 primary caregivers of children
