According to a recent Mexican survey, 10.72% of women have at some point experienced sexual partner violence, and 23.71% physical violence at the hands of their current or last partner. Using this survey and a series of semi-structured interviews with experts, this study used a mixed-methods approach to examine, first, whether women who experienced violence turned to law enforcement agencies for help, and the characteristics of these women. Second, the research examined what type of service and treatment they reported receiving from these agencies. Finally, the research examined reasons women did not request help from police and law enforcement agencies.
根据最近的一项墨西哥调查，10.72%的女性曾在某个时候遭受过性伴侣的暴力，23.71%的女性遭受过现任或前任伴侣的身体暴力。本研究采用混合方法，利用这项调查和对专家的一系列半结构化访谈，首先研究了遭受暴力的女性是否求助于执法机构，以及这些女性的特征。其次，研究报告了她们从这些机构获得的服务和治疗类型。最后，研究还探讨了女性不向警方和执法机构求助的原因。
