Background: Effective verbal communication allows us to express ourselves through our native language. Children may be indirectly affected in this aspect by intimate partner violence threatening their adequate functioning. Objective: To assess the association between intimate partner violence and effective verbal communication in boys and girls aged 9-36 months, Peru 2018-2019. Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study secondary to the “encuesta demográfica y de salud familiar (ENDES-INEI) Perú 2018-2019”. Effective verbal communication was measured using the Battelle scale. Physical and sexual violence was operationalized through the CTS2 scale, considering the categories physical violence only, physical and sexual violence, as well as emotional violence. A generalized linear Poisson model was used to identify the association and the results were presented as prevalence ratio. Results: The prevalence of physical violence was 9.9%, physical and sexual violence 2.6%, and emotional violence 14.4%. Women who reported physical and sexual violence were 30% less likely to have children with effective verbal communication compared to mothers who did not report it (RPa 0.70 CI 95% 0.50;0.98, p = 0.040). However, for emotional violence, no statistically significant association was found with effective verbal communication (RPa 0.93 CI 95% 0.8;1.04, p = 0.224). Conclusions: An association was found between physical and sexual violence with less effective verbal communication in the child. This is one of the first studies to find this association in early stages of life on a nationwide level.
