晚年的亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）有各种形式，包括身体伤害，性侵犯和谋杀。使用国家报纸报道的IPV中的老年人，我们确定了媒体报道最频繁的暴力类型，并研究了如何虐待的概念化记者。我们发现，大多数IPV报告的案件涉及谋杀，男性是犯罪者，女性是受害者。护理压力和健康问题经常被认为是这些案件的促成因素。从女权主义的角度解释这些发现，我们建议与老年人工作的从业者的影响。
Intimate partner violence (IPV) in late life takes various forms including physical harm, sexual assault, and murder. Using national newspaper reports of IPV among elders, we identified the types of violence reported most frequently in media and examined how the abuse was conceptualized by reporters. We found that most cases of IPV reported involved murder, with men as perpetrators and women as victims. Caregiving stress and health problems were frequently cited as contributing factors in the cases. Interpreting these findings from a feminist perspective, we suggest implications for practitioners working with older adults.
