Abstract

Spanish Abstract: Este artículo tiene como objetivo estimar la relación entre las actitudes y conductas violentas en las relaciones interpersonales e íntimas y las diferencias por sexo, edad y la exposición a acontecimientos violentos. Se analiza la relación entre la violencia perpetrada y sufrida, el estado de salud, la percepción del clima social, y su relación con los valores culturales. Participaron 2006 personas, 825 hombres (41,1%) y 1181 mujeres (58,9%). Se aplico un muestreo probabilístico estratificado por provincias (Álava, Guipuzkoa y Vizcaya) según criterios de proporcionalidad durante los años 2005-2008. Se encontró una relación entre compartir actitudes y ejecutar conductas violentas. En general, la violencia común en la pareja tiene carácter bidireccional y recíproco, aunque existen diferencias entre hombres y mujeres relacionadas con la gravedad. La agresión se asociará con la violencia en la infancia, la edad y con la exposición a acontecimientos violentos. Se comprueba que la violencia impacta gravemente sobre la salud física y mental de víctimas y agresores/as y se asocia con peor clima social y con valores culturales masculinos.

English Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between attitudes and violent behaviors at private and interpersonal relationships, as well as gender and age differences and the exposure to violent events. It is analyzed the relation between the perpetrated and suffered violence, the health condition, the perception of the social environment and its relation with the cultural values. The sample is based on 2006 persons, 825 men (41.1%) and 1181 women (58.9%). A probabilistic sampling stratified across the cities (Alava, Guipuzkoa y Vizcaya) is developed, according to proportionality criteria during the period 2005-2008. A connection between sharing attitudes and developing violent behaviors was detected. In general, the common violence in the couple is bidirectional and reciprocal, although there are differences between men and women related to severity. The aggression will be associated with violence in childhood, the age and the exposure to violent events. It is verified that violence severely impacts on the physical and mental health of victims and aggressors and it is related to a worse social climate and male cultural values.
