Anadolu Kadınlarının Kadına Yönelik Şiddete İlişkin Görüş Tutum Ve Davranışları

Amaç: Kadına yönelik şiddet, küresel bir insanlık sorunudur. Bu çalışma; Türkiye'nin Kars ilinde yaşayan kadınların, kadına yönelik şiddete ilişkin görüş, tutum ve davranışlarını değerlendirmekte ve hem fiziksel şiddeti etkileyen sosyo-demografik unsurları hem de kadınların bu şiddete yönelik görüş, tutum ve davranışlarını incelemektedir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Türkiye'de kadına yönelik aile içi şiddetle ilgili rapora dayalı olarak hazırlanan anketi içeren bu kesitsel araştırma, 17-83 yaş arası 183 kadınla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan kadınların %30,4'ü şiddetli, %41,3'ü hafif düzeyde fiziksel şiddete maruz kalmıştır. Aile gelirinin düşük olmasının fiziksel şiddet riskini 3.152 kat artırdığı görüldü. Eşi işsiz olan kadınlarda fiziksel şiddet riski 2.974 kat daha fazlaydı. Eşin görece düşük eğitim düzeyi, fiziksel şiddet riskinde 2.981 kat artış anlamına geliyordu; genç yaş grubunda fiziksel şiddet riski, daha yaşlı gruba göre 2.328 kat daha fazlaydı. Eğitim düzeyi yüksek, ekonomik bağımsızlığı olan, çalışan ve daha genç yaş gruplarındaki kadınlar, çoğunlukla kadına yönelik şiddeti “asla kabul edilemez” olarak gördüğünü bildirmiştir. Eşleri tarafından şiddete maruz kaldıklarında adli yardım arayan kadınlar, istatistiksel olarak önemli ölçüde, iyi eğitimli ve ekonomik olarak bağımsız kadın grupları içinde yer almaktadır. Sonuç: Kültür, eğitim ve ekonomik durum, kadına yönelik şiddetin ana risk faktörleridir, ancak bu tür davranışların temel nedenini anlamak için çok boyutlu araştırmalara gereksinim vardır.

Anatolian Women’s Opinions Attitudes And Behaviors Toward Violence Against Women

Objective: Violence against women is a global humanitarian problem. The present study evaluates the opinions, attitudes and behaviors of women living in the Kars province of Turkey toward violence against women, and analyses the socio-demographic factors that influence both physical violence, and the opinions, attitudes and behaviors of women toward such violence. Methods: This cross-sectional research was conducted with 183 women aged 17-83 years, involving a questionnaire prepared based on a summary report on domestic violence against women in Turkey. Results: Of the respondents, 30.4 percent had been exposed severe physical violence and 41.3% mild physical violence. It was seen that a low family income increased the risk of physical violence 3.152-fold. The risk of physical violence was 2.974 times greater in women with unemployed partners. A relatively low educational level in the partner meant a 2.981-fold increase in the risk of physical violence; and the risk of physical violence was 2.328 times greater in the younger age groups than in the older age groups. Women with a higher level of education and with more economic independence, those in employment, and those in the younger age groups mostly considered violence against women to be “never acceptable”. Women seeking legal aid when exposed to violence by their partners were in the well-educated and economically independent women groups, to a significant degree. Conclusion: Culture, education and economic status are the main risk factors for violence against women, however multidimensional research is necessary if we are to understand the root cause of such behaviors.
