Adjusting for standard demographic variables of the woman and male partner (age, education), electricity (proxy for household wealth), variables significantly associated with the outcome in the univariable models (location, method of disclosure, when woman was diagnosed), and theoretically important variables (male partner HIV status and exposure to parent study interventions)
IPV=Intimate Partner Violence
Participants who received cMM alone, text messages alone, or both (reference: control arm)
Participants who report their male partner says cruel or angry things to them all of the time, most of the time, or more often than not, during disagreements
Participants who report their male partner physically hurts them all of the time, most of the time, or more often than not, during disagreements
