Social perception of intimate partner violence according to the motivations and sex of the aggressor and the ideology and sex of the observers

We studied how the sex of the aggressor and their motivations for attacking influence the social perception of intimate partner violence, as well as the sex of the observer and their sexist ideology. University students read a scenario in which both members of a heterosexual couple harmed each other...

Megías, Jesússymmetry-asymmetry debatemotivationssocial perceptionambivalent sexismintimate partner violenceWe studied how the sex of the aggressor and their motivations for attacking influence the social perception of intimate partner violence, as well as the sex of the observer and their sexist ideology. University students read a scenario in which both members of a heterosexual couple harmed each other owing to controlling or reactive motivations. After that, they were asked to identify the motivations of each partner and estimate the seriousness of what occurred, the number of aggressions described and the frequency of this kind of episode in real life. The results showed that the men and women properly identified the motivations underlying the aggressive behaviours, considered control violence more serious than reactive violence, and perceived more of the first kind of aggression. However, the men estimated a lower frequency of these episodes in real life, especially episodes of control violence. The ambivalent sexism of the men is related to these assessments. These results are particularly important with regard to the debate on gender symmetry/asymmetry in intimate partner violence.Se estudió cómo influye en la percepción social de la violencia de pareja el sexo del/a agresor/a y sus motivaciones para agredir, así como el sexo del/a observador/a y su ideología sexista. Estudiantes universitarios/as leyeron un escenario donde ambos miembros de una pareja heterosexual se agredían por motivaciones controladoras o reactivas. Tras ello, se les pidió que identificaran las motivaciones de cada protagonista y estimaran la gravedad de lo ocurrido, el número de agresiones descritas y la frecuencia de este tipo de episodios en la vida real. Los resultados mostraron que hombres y mujeres identificaron adecuadamente las motivaciones que subyacían a las conductas agresivas, consideraron que la violencia de control era más grave que la reactiva y percibieron más agresiones del primer tipo; no obstante, los hombres estimaron una menor frecuencia de estos episodios en la realidad, especialmente los de violencia de control. El sexismo ambivalente de los hombres se relacionó con estas valoraciones. Estos resultados son especialmente relevantes en relación al debate sobre la simetría-asimetría de género en la violencia de pareja.This study was performed as part of the PSI2013-45041-P project funded by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, and we thank as well the first author’s University Faculty Training Grant [FPU 2012, AP2012-2824] funded by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport.Routledge.
