The purpose of this study is to determine the factors related to women's exposure to emotional violence by their spouses/partners in the 12 months prior to the survey, according to their place of residence (rural, urban) in Türkiye.
Binary logistic regression analysis was utilized to determine the factors associated with women's exposure to emotional violence from their spouses/partners. The independent variables of the study were those used in the National Research on Domestic Violence against Women in Türkiye (2014). A total of 6,458 women-4,404 from urban areas and 2,054 from rural areas-were included in the analysis.
The findings obtained from the analyses indicated that women's exposure to emotional violence was associated with various factors such as age, educational level, marital status, and women's higher income contribution to the household. It was also found that afraid of spouse/partner, controlling behavior of spouse/partner, and other variables related to spouse/partner were associated with women's exposure to emotional violence. In rural, a woman with a higher income contribution to the household is less likely to be exposed to emotional IPV. A woman with no formal education, a primary and secondary school graduate spouse/partner is less likely to be exposed to emotional IPV than a woman with a high school graduate spouse/partner. The likelihood of a woman with a spouse/partner using drugs to be exposed to emotional IPV is lower than a non-user.
The results of the study are important in that they can be a source of information for policies and programs to prevent IPV against women. This study can also be a significant guide in determining priority areas for the resolution of emotional IPV against women. The study suggests developing proper strategies for reducing emotional violence, such as training and programs to help women pursue non-violent pathways in their relationships. It recommends expanding interventions to empower women economically that help prevent violence.
本研究旨在根据土耳其女性的居住地点（农村、城市），确定在调查前12个月内与女性遭受配偶/伴侣情感暴力相关的因素。
采用二元逻辑回归分析来确定与女性遭受配偶/伴侣情感暴力相关的因素。本研究的自变量采用土耳其全国针对妇女的家庭暴力研究（2014年）中使用的变量。分析共纳入6458名女性，其中4404名来自城市地区，2054名来自农村地区。
分析结果表明，女性遭受情感暴力与年龄、教育程度、婚姻状况以及女性对家庭收入贡献较高等多种因素有关。还发现害怕配偶/伴侣、配偶/伴侣的控制行为以及与配偶/伴侣相关的其他变量与女性遭受情感暴力有关。在农村地区，对家庭收入贡献较高的女性遭受情感亲密伴侣暴力的可能性较小。与配偶/伴侣为高中毕业生的女性相比，未接受过正规教育、配偶/伴侣为小学和中学毕业生的女性遭受情感亲密伴侣暴力的可能性较小。配偶/伴侣吸毒的女性遭受情感亲密伴侣暴力的可能性低于未吸毒者。
该研究结果很重要，因为它们可为预防针对妇女的亲密伴侣暴力的政策和项目提供信息来源。本研究在确定解决针对妇女的情感亲密伴侣暴力的优先领域方面也可成为重要指南。该研究建议制定减少情感暴力的适当策略，如开展培训和项目，帮助女性在恋爱关系中寻求非暴力途径。建议扩大经济赋权妇女的干预措施，以帮助预防暴力。
