VTo verify prevalence of intimate partner violence among elderly people and to identify associated factors.
This was a cross-sectional population-based study using data from the EpiFloripa Idoso Study, with elderly people living in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil, between 2013 and 2014. Prevalence rates were described and factors associated using Poisson regression were analyzed, for violence suffered and perpetrated, stratified by sex.
Among 651 elderly people, 48.3% of males and 46.4% of females suffered intimate partner violence. Psychological violence suffered (48.3% and 44.8%) and perpetrated (49.8% and 44.5%) predominated in males and females, respectively. Perpetrated violence was associated with poor/very poor self-perceived health (PR=1.74) among males, and with regular self-perceived health (PR=1.53) and separated/divorced marital status (PR=1.86) among females.
Symmetry was found between the sexes for prevalence of intimate partner violence, for all directionalities of violence analyzed.
验证老年人中亲密伴侣暴力的流行情况,并确定相关因素。
这是一项基于人群的横断面研究,使用了巴西圣卡塔琳娜州弗洛里亚诺波利斯市 2013 年至 2014 年间的 EpiFloripa Idoso 研究数据。描述了流行率,并使用泊松回归分析了与暴力受害和施暴有关的因素,按性别分层。
在 651 名老年人中,48.3%的男性和 46.4%的女性遭受亲密伴侣暴力。心理暴力受害(男性和女性分别为 48.3%和 44.8%)和施暴(男性和女性分别为 49.8%和 44.5%)占主导地位。在男性中,施暴与自我感知健康状况不佳/非常差(PR=1.74)有关,而在女性中,施暴与自我感知健康状况良好(PR=1.53)和离异/分居的婚姻状况(PR=1.86)有关。
在所有分析的暴力方向上,男女之间亲密伴侣暴力的流行率存在对称性。
