          Abstract

          De entre las diferentes formas de violencia contra las mujeres, la ejercida en el marco de la pareja o ex-pareja sentimental es la que alcanza tasas más elevadas, tanto a nivel mundial como en nuestro entorno. Sin embargo, determinar cuáles son esas tasas y, por tanto, arbitrar las medidas y recursos necesarios no es en absoluto tarea fácil. Por ello hemos considerado pertinente dedicar este trabajo al análisis las dificultades para cuantificar este problema. A lo largo del texto se analizan los datos procedentes tanto de encuestas como de registros o denuncias y tanto de nuestro país como de otros. Estos datos permiten, en primer lugar, concluir con bastante claridad que esta forma de violencia, así como su consecuencia fatal más irreversible, el femicidio, no es privativa de ningún país o conjunto de países concretos con unas determinadas características. Sin embargo, la magnitud concreta y, por tanto, las semejanzas y diferencias que pueda haber entre países y la evolución de este problema son temas mucho más difíciles de cuantificar. Se analizan y discuten estos resultados.

          Translated abstract

          Among the different forms of violence against women, domestic violence is the one that reaches higher valuations, so much World wide as in our environment. Nevertheless, to determine what are these valuations and, therefore, to arbitrate the measurements and necessary resources is not an easy task. For it we have considered necessary to dedicate this work to the analysis the difficulties to quantify this problem. We analysed data of surveys and registrations from Spain and from different countries. These data permit in the first place, to conclude with plenty of clarity that this form of violence, as well as its more irreversible fatal consequence, the femicide, is not exclusive of any country or joint of countries with some characteristics. Nevertheless, the concrete magnitude and, therefore, the similarities and differences that can have between countries and the evolution of this problem are a lot more difficult themes to quantify. We analysed and discuss these results.

          Frequency and correlates of intimate partner violence by type: physical, sexual, and psychological battering.

          This study estimated the frequency and correlates of intimate partner violence by type (physical, sexual, battering, or emotional abuse) among women seeking primary health care. Women aged 18 to 65 years who attended family practice clinics in 1997 and 1998 took part. Participation included a brief in-clinic survey assessing intimate partner violence. Multiple polytomous logistic regression was used to assess correlates of partner violence by type. Of 1401 eligible women surveyed, 772 (55.1%) had experienced some type of intimate partner violence in a current, most recent, or past intimate relationship with a male partner; 20.2% were currently experiencing intimate partner violence. Among those who had experienced partner violence in any relationship, 77.3% experienced physical or sexual violence, and 22.7% experienced nonphysical abuse. Alcohol and/or drug abuse by the male partner was the strongest correlate of violence. Partner substance abuse and intimate partner violence in the woman's family of origin were strong risk factors for experiencing violence. Efforts to universally screen for partner violence and to effectively intervene to reduce the impact of such violence on women's lives must be a public health priority.
