The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and determinants of domestic violence in Mongolian women.
The survey was administered to 5500 people in 1000 households randomly selected from two districts of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
The response rate was 90.3% (total of 4967, and 3338 were women.). About 37.7% of respondents reported that they were affected by some type of domestic violence during the previous 6 months; 17.9% of all respondents reported physical violence, 21.9% reported emotional violence, 10% reported sexual abuse, and 6.9% reported financial violence. Major risk factors for violence against women included having only a primary education or less, low income, living in a rented house, and living with an unemployed partner who uses alcohol.
Domestic or intimate partner violence (IPV) is widespread in Mongolia and is usually committed in family circles, often away from public view. This study suggests that increasing employment for men may help reduce poverty and alcohol abuse and, thus, IPV.
本研究旨在调查蒙古女性中家庭暴力的发生率和决定因素。
该调查对蒙古乌兰巴托两个区的 1000 户随机抽取的 5500 人进行了调查。
应答率为 90.3%(共 4967 人,其中 3338 人为女性)。约 37.7%的受访者报告称,在过去 6 个月内受到过某种类型的家庭暴力;17.9%的受访者报告遭受了身体暴力,21.9%报告遭受了情感暴力,10%报告遭受了性虐待,6.9%报告遭受了经济暴力。暴力侵害妇女的主要危险因素包括仅受过小学或以下教育、收入低、居住在出租房屋中,以及与失业且酗酒的伴侣同住。
在蒙古,家庭暴力(包括亲密伴侣暴力)普遍存在,通常发生在家庭圈子内,往往不为人知。本研究表明,增加男性就业可能有助于减少贫困和酗酒,从而减少家庭暴力。
