| description |
A broad range of research literature has studied patterns of intergenerational violence. However, scant research has looked at how those patterns are gendered. This study examines gendered patterns of intergenerational transmission of violence and looks at how gender relates to intimate partner violence and child physical abuse over time. I used a 2015 dataset of 12.915 interviews with Colombian heterosexual couples who were married or living together at the time of the interview. Using factor analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM), I found, consistent with previous studies, that parental history of child abuse was a predictor of physical child abuse; this is consistent with previous studies. Experiencing physical punishment by one’s parents was a stronger predictor of the use of physical punishment on one’s own children in adulthood than being an observer of partner violence between one’s parents. However, the female observer of parental male-to-female partner abuse was more likely also to be a victim of intimate partner abuse in adulthood, and experiencing physical punishment by one’s parents also predicts a male’s physical victimization. Overall, the results support social learning theory and liberal feminist theory, that gender roles, gender inequality, and power structure are learned, passed from one generation to the next, and perpetuated by family relationships.

Pero, muy poca de esta literatura describe los patrones de transmisión por género. El presente estudio examina las diferencias por género en la violencia doméstica y el abuso infantil, así como también, la transmisión generacional de estos patrones. Para este estudio, se utilizó una muestra de 12,915 parejas heterosexuales colombianas, que estaban casadas o convivían cuando fueron entrevistadas en el año 2015. Los resultados del análisis factorial y de ecuaciones de modelos estructurales mostraron que la historia de abuso físico en la infancia de los padres predice el abuso físico a sus hijos e hijas. Estos resultados son consistentes con resultados obtenidos en estudios previos. Ser abusado físicamente por los padres tiene una relación causal más fuerte con el castigo físico a los hijos e hijas que presenciar violencia domestica entre los padres. Pero, el hecho de que las mujeres presencien el abuso físico de padre-a-madre predijo su victimización por sus parejas en la adultez. También, ser víctima de castigo físico por los padres predice la victimización física de los hombres por sus parejas. En general, los resultados de este estudio comprueban las teorías liberal-feminista y de aprendizaje; el rol de género, la inequidad por género, y la estructura de poder se aprenden, y, ese aprendizaje se pasa de una generación a la siguiente y se perpetúa a través de las relaciones familiares.2018text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6526345(Revista) ISSN 1696-9219Revista Española de Investigación Criminológica: REIC, ISSN 1696-9219, Nº. 16, 2018engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
