DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND FEMALE’S LABOR MARKET CONDITIONS IN TURKEY: AN ANALYSIS OF CROSS SECTIONAL DATA
Öz
The main objective of this study is to find out and present
the economic factors behind the problem of spousal violence against women. Two
models, simple and extended, are estimated by linear regression model and
Logit. Main finding is the negative relationship between the spousal violence
and education level of the women. Education seems as the most effective way for
the Turkish woman to get away from violence. Violence is lower on the women in
more secure work conditions, indicating that the labor market conditions are
also important. The labor market status of the women matters more than their
husbands, indicating that empowerment of the women is one of the key issues to
fight with domestic violence. Alcohol usage of husband seems another essential
factor increasing the violence against females.
