Abstract

Bu araştırma, COVID-19 pandemi sürecinde kadınlara yönelik aile içi şiddet sıklığı ile iyilik hali ve ilişkili faktörleri saptamak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma Mart- Ağustos 2021 tarihleri arasında 18 yaş ve üzeri 417 evli kadınla yürütülmüştür. Veriler, sosyodemografik özellikler soru formu, WHO-5 İyilik Hali İndeksi ve Aile İçi Kadına Yönelik Şiddet Ölçeği (AKŞÖ) ile toplanmıştır. Araştırma grubunda AKŞÖ toplam puan ortalaması 66.60±13.89, Fiziksel Şiddet alt boyutu puan ortalaması 10.50±2.12, Duygusal Şiddet alt boyut puan ortalaması 16.27±2.55, Sözel Şiddet alt boyut puan ortalaması 13.30±3.97, Ekonomik Şiddet alt boyut puan ortalaması 13.12±3.15, Cinsel Şiddet alt boyut puan ortalaması 12.46±3.14, WHO-5 İyilik Hali İndeksi puan ortalaması 11.13±5.70’tir. Eşin eğitim durumu düşük olanlarda (B=-3.439, p=0.001), sigara kullananlarda (B=4.201, p=0.018), eşi alkol kullananlarda (B=5.438, p=0.000), pandemi öncesi şiddet görenlerde (B=5.947, p=0.004), pandemide şiddet görenlerde (B=5.595, p=0.002), iyilik hali kötü olanlarda (B=-2.891, p=0.046), AKŞÖ puanı yüksektir. Araştırma grubundaki kişilerin aile içi şiddete maruziyeti orta düzeyde olup duygusal ve sözel şiddet yüksektir. Pandemi gibi olağandışı durumlarda risk grubu kişilere yönelik erişilebilir hizmet sunumu yaygınlaştırılmalıdır.

The Factors Related to Domestic Violence Frequency and Well-Being in Women during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the frequency of domestic violence against women and well-being and related factors during the COVID-19 pandemic. This cross-sectional study was conducted with 417 married women aged 18 and over between March and August 2021. The data were collected via sociodemographic questionnaire, Domestic Violence Against Women Scale (DVAWS) and WHO-5 Well-being Index. In the research group, the DVAWS mean score was 66.60±13.89, Physical Violence sub-dimension mean 10.50±2.12, Emotional Violence sub-dimension mean 16.27±2.55, Verbal Violence sub-dimension mean 13.30±3.97, Economic Violence sub-dimension mean score was 13.12±3.15, Sexual Violence sub-dimension mean score was 12.46±3.14, WHO-5 Well-being Index mean score was 11.13±5.70. The lower the education level of the spouse (B=-3.439, p=0.001), the more he smokes (B=4.201, p=0.018), the ones whose spouse uses alcohol (B=5.438, p=0.000), those who experienced violence before the pandemic (B=5.947, p=0.004), those who were exposed to violence during the pandemic (B=5.595, p=0.002), and those who had poor well-being (B=-2.891, p=0.046) had a higher score on DVAWS. Exposure to domestic violence of the people in the research group is moderate, and emotional and verbal violence is high. The accessible service provision for risk group people should be expanded in extraordinary situations such as pandemics.
