Summary of findings with respect to three theoretical perspectives and associated hypotheses concerning the influence of women’s exposure to intimate partner violence on engagement and time spent on their economic and non-economic activities. Notation used for Model columns is as follows: NB = negative binomial regression model for time spent on given work, among those performing given work; LO = logistic regression model for any engagement in given work in specified period of time; U = adjusted model with all covariates in Table 2, without generalized anxiety as a potential mediator; and M = adjusted model with all covariates in Table 2, with generalized anxiety as a potential mediator. Notation used for Exposure columns is as follows: PS = physical or sexual IPV; PSY = psychological IPV; ANY = any IPV; L = ever in the woman’s lifetime; R1 = recent, since 2005; R2 = recent, in the prior year; C = chronic, before and after 2005; and D = distal, before 2005. Notation used for Results columns is as follows: – denotes a significantly negative association (p &lt; .05), (–) denotes a marginally significant negative association (p &lt; .10), + denotes a significantly positive association (p &lt; .05), (+) denotes a marginally significant positive association (p &lt; .10), and * denotes possible mediation of generalized anxiety because unmediated coefficients for IPV are attenuated in mediated model and become less significant or nonsignificant. Nonsignificant coefficients for IPV are not presented. Other notes: The score for generalized anxiety was negatively associated with engagement in market and care work and positively associated with time spent on domestic and care work, but not associated with either engagement in or time spent on market work and subsistence work. The estimates for R1PS and R1ANY in inflate portions of Models 8 and 9 of Table 4 were large and significantly negative, but they may be unstable because of invariance of the outcome
