Summary:The purposes of this research were to identify diagnosis and intervention performance accuracy, variables that influence this performance accuracy, and barriers that impede performance accuracy of adult nurse practitioners (ANP) and family nurse practitioners (FNP) for domestic violence. Two measures were developed: the Nurse Practitioner Survey (NPS) and the Nurse Practitioner Performance Tool. A total of 118 ANPs and FNPs completed and returned mailed surveys. Of these, 22 individuals were interviewed by telephone regarding personal and professional experience with domestic violence and barriers in their clinical settings to addressing domestic violence.
