This study assessed the association between women's reports of asset ownership (home and land) and experience of three types of intimate partner violence (IPV): physical violence, emotional violence, and husbands' controlling behaviors.
Population-based secondary analysis.
This cross-sectional study used data from a sub-sample of 658 women from the nationally representative Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey 2012-13. Logistic regression analyses were used to estimate the association between asset ownership and IPV.
Results from logistic regressions indicated that when women owned assets their husbands were 2.3 times more likely to use controlling tactics (P < 0.001) which was mitigated only when women had a say in household decisions. Physical or emotional violence, however, was not significantly associated with women's asset ownership.
The study findings highlight the importance of culture and context in policy implementation.
本研究评估了女性报告的资产所有权(房屋和土地)与三种亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)经历之间的关联:身体暴力、情感暴力和丈夫的控制行为。
基于人群的二次分析。
这项横断面研究使用了来自2012 - 2013年具有全国代表性的巴基斯坦人口与健康调查中658名女性子样本的数据。采用逻辑回归分析来估计资产所有权与亲密伴侣暴力之间的关联。
逻辑回归结果表明,当女性拥有资产时,其丈夫使用控制策略的可能性高出2.3倍(P < 0.001),而只有当女性在家庭决策中有发言权时这种情况才会得到缓解。然而,身体暴力或情感暴力与女性的资产所有权并无显著关联。
研究结果凸显了文化和背景在政策实施中的重要性。
