Abstract
Resumo: O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar as concepções sobre violência intrafamiliar entre profissionais e estudantes da área educacional. Utilizou-se a adaptação do questionário Crenças sobre Violência Doméstica. O estudo incluiu 58 participantes. Na análise quantitativa obtiveram-se as médias e porcentagens das respostas adequadas e inadequadas de cada grupo em todos os itens do instrumento, assim como foram verificadas as diferenças estatisticamente significativas nesses itens. Os dados apontaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas em 6 itens e na pontuação total de cada grupo. Os estudantes apresentaram concepções mais adequadas do que os profissionais. Considera-se, por fim, a necessidade de cursos contínuos para atualização profissional.
Highlights
Domestic or intrafamily violence has been widely discussed in the news due to the epidemic proportions it has achieved in recent years
This table shows the values found in the nonparametric Mann-Whitney test and the standard deviation of the means for each group in each of the instrument items
Regarding the values presented by the students, we found that the assertions with the lowest means were: Q6 – The consumption of alcohol is the leading cause of a man beating up his wife and children, Q7 – Generally, children who arrive at hospitals and emergency rooms with serious fractures and bruises were victims of domestic accidents – and Q45 – When a couple has a violent relationship, the only solution is separation
Summary
Domestic or intrafamily violence has been widely discussed in the news due to the epidemic proportions it has achieved in recent years. Violence and abuse against children and adolescents have been gaining ground in discussions on health, education and public policy worldwide. The Law No 8069/1990, known as the Statute of the Child and Adolescent (Brazil, 1990), focuses on the rights and obligations of all people regarding the care and protection of children and adolescents. The law tries to ensure a dignified, free and healthy life to citizens, intrafamily violence is a reality for many families. Adolescents and children are victims or spectators of aggression and constant abuse in an environment that should ensure them security, their homes. Living in a home with marital violence does not mean the child is a direct victim of this violence; it is a risk factor in their healthy development (Koller, 2000; D’affonseca; Williams, 2011)
