Table 7 shows the self-perceived health as a measure of subjective health
for women who have suffered from IPV and for those who have not. 58.7% of
the victims state that their health status is good or very good, 11.1% say that
it is bad or very bad, and 30.1% say it is fair. On the other hand, women who
have never suffered IPV state to a greater extent than their health condition is
good or very good (66.3%) and to a lesser extent bad or very bad (9.0%), or
fair (24.8%)
