Este trabajo presenta una investigación con 405 mujeres, de las cuales 196 constituían el grupo de víctimas de malos tratos en su relación de pareja (IPV). Se han analizado las características sociodemográficas de la muestra, y se ha aplicado el Inventario Clínico Multiaxial de Millon (MCMI-III), así como el AAQ-VP (Cuestionario de Aceptación Acción en situaciones de Violencia en pareja) y el AAQ-II (Cuestionario de Aceptación y Acción), con el fin de valorar características de personalidad, síndromes clínicos y Evitación Experiencial (EE). Se inicia el trabajo con un estudio instrumental mediante el Análisis Factorial Exploratorio (AFE) y el Confirmatorio (AFC), para ratificar los resultados de un estudio piloto previo respecto al AAQ-VP, como medida de la EE en una relación de violencia de pareja. Los resultados apoyaron una versión de 7 ítems con una estructura de un único factor, que refleja las construcciones latentes, resultando una medida fiable. Seguidamente se estudia la prevalencia y porcentajes de los rasgos clínicos de personalidad y de síndromes clínicos en ambos grupos, así como los niveles de EE. Los perfiles de mayor vulnerabilidad para IPV resultaron Evitativos, Dependientes o Depresivos, si bien, cuando los perfiles se conjugan con otras variables se reduce su poder predictivo. Los Síndromes Clínicos más prevalentes, como consecuencia de ser víctima de malos tratos, resultaron TT de Ansiedad, Distímico y Trastorno por Estrés Postraumático. La topografía más prevalente, casi del 100%, son los malos tratos psicológicos. Finalmente, se explora el valor predictivo del conjunto de variables que han resultado significativas en los análisis bivariados, resultando factores de riesgo: el desempleo, estar sin pareja, haber sido víctimas previamente, elevada evitación experiencial, perfil Dependiente de personalidad, y alta Deseabilidad Social.

Un libro fundamental para desentrañar la violencia de género mediante el testimonio de sus víctimas. Maltratadas reconstruye el mapa social sobre el que se edifica la violencia de los hombres hacia las mujeres a partir charlas íntimas con víctimas sobre la violencia de género en las relaciones de pareja. Desde hace algunos años, los casos de violencia de género en la Argentina se han multiplicado de manera exponencial hasta alcanzar c ifras escalofriantes: en 2012 se registraron cinco femicidios por semana. La periodista Mariana Carbajal reconstruye el mapa social sobre el que se edifica la violencia de los hombres hacia las mujeres, a partir de historias de vida, de charlas íntimas con víctimas, de entrevistas con especialistas, y de una investigación profunda y comprometida. Con este libro la autora desarticula las creencias que se han instalado en la sociedad, producto del prejuicio, el desconocimiento y el peso de una cultura machista que sigue sosteniendo premisas tales como que la violencia contra las mujeres "es cosa de pobres", que "no hay que meterse", que "solo les pasa a las sumisas e ignorantes", e inclusive, que "si no hay golpes, no es violencia", entre otras. Maltratadas es un libro fundamental para revisar los pasos que hemos dado como sociedad en términos de políticas de Estado y aspectos legales, tratamiento y contención psicológica, y comunicación responsable desde los medios, y plantea nuevos desafíos para combatir y erradicar definitivamente la violencia machista. La crítica ha dicho... «Mariana Carbajal transformó su pesadumbre y su indignación en un documento para la historia de las mujeres.» Eva Giberti «Cada palabra del libro eleva sogas a mujeres y jóvenes que quieren salir de una trampa que alguna vez llamaron amor.» Página 12 «Un libro que pone en agenda la violencia de género.» Télam «Un documento fundamental que reconstruye el mapa social sobre el que se funda la violencia de los hombres hacia las mujeres.» Tercera información

This book seeks to break new ground in the way in which adolescent-to-parent violence and abuse is understood. Incorporating knowledge from an original research project undertaken in the UK and international literature, this book provides insight into the prevalence of this form of domestic violence which can include psychological, physical, and economic abuse. Young person and family characteristics are explored, and links are made between sibling aggression and school bullying behaviours. A key theme is how the data can be used to develop statistical models which can screen for young people behaving abusively towards their parents. It discusses how the research can be applied to inform theoretical frameworks, policy development, and professional practice, with a focus on prevention and early intervention that uses positive youth justice and restorative approaches.

Theorizing Patriarchy

Sylvia Walby provides an overview of recent theoretical debates - Marxism, radical and liberal feminism, post-structuralism and dual systems theory. She shows how each can be applied to a range of substantive topics from paid work, housework and the state, to culture, sexuality and violence, relying on the most up-to-date empirical findings. Arguing that patriarchy has been vigorously adaptable to the changes in women's position, and that some of women's hard-won social gains have been transformed into new traps, Walby proposes a combination of class analysis with radical feminist theory to explain gender relations in terms of both patriarchal and capitalist structure.

Gender has a fundamental influence on the human brain, not only by virtue of biological and hormonal differences between the sexes but also because of the impact of gender-specific cultural, social, anthropological and environmental factors. Nevertheless, the relation of gender and psychopathology remains a largely neglected field. Gender perspective has been treated as a paradigm in this book on psychopathology because it determines the way in which a psychiatric symptom is defined, perceived and understood. This conception of gender as being of key importance in the definition of psychiatric symptomatology is exceptional in the literature. The book opens by examining historical and cultural aspects of mental health in women worldwide and the relation of sex, brain and gender, with coverage of both neurobiological and psychosocial aspects. The significance of gender with regard to specific aspects of psychopathology is then addressed in detail. A wide range of psychological disorders are considered, as well as hormonal influences and issues concerning body image, self identity, sexuality and life instinct. It is hoped that this book will make a significant contribution in ensuring that gender perspective receives due attention within descriptive psychopathology.

Predictive policing is the use of analytical techniques to identify targets for police intervention with the goal of preventing crime, solving past crimes, or identifying potential offenders and victims. These tools are not a substitute for integrated approaches to policing, nor are they a crystal ball. This guide assesses some of the most promising technical tools and tactical approaches for acting on predictions in an effective way.

The quality of people’s relationships with and interactions with other people are major influences on their feelings of well-being and their evaluations of life satisfaction. The goal of this volume is to offer scholarly summaries of theory and research on topics at the frontier of the study of these social psychological influences—both interpersonal and intrapersonal—on subjective well-being and life satisfaction. The chapters cover a variety of types of relationships (e.g., romantic relationships, friendships, online relationships) as well as a variety of types of interactions with others (e.g., forgiveness, gratitude, helping behavior, self-presentation). Also included are chapters on broader social issues such as materialism, sexual identity and orientation, aging, spirituality, and meaning in life. Subjective Well-Being and Life Satisfaction provides a rich and focused resource for graduate students, upper-level undergraduate students, and researchers in positive psychology and social psychology, as well as social neuroscientists, mental health researchers, clinical and counselling psychologists, and anyone interested in the science of well-being.

In 1997 the National Institute of Mental Health assembled a working group of international experts to address the mental health consequences of torture and related violence and trauma; report on the status of scientific knowledge; and include research recommendations with implications for treatment, services, and policy development. This book, dedicated to those who experience the horrors of torture and those who work to end it, is based on that report.
