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.

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.
