亲密伴侣暴力危害妇女及其子女的健康。在越南,31%的女性报告一生中遭受过身体上的性侵,令人惊讶的是,女性比男性更经常为妻子的身体性侵辩护。我们比较了男性和女性为打妻子找理由的比率,并评估童年经历、成年后的资源和约束的差异是否解释了观察到的差异。在越南调查了已婚男性(N = 522)和已婚女性(N = 533)的概率样本。有序logit模型评估了女性和男性找到更多“好理由”打妻子的比例(从不,1-3情况,4-6情况)。在所有情况下,女性比男性更容易找到打妻子的好理由。与男性相比,女性报告有更多理由打妻子的未调整几率为6.55(95%可信区间4.82 - 8.91)。在调整后的模型中,包括性别与年龄、出生子女数量和成年后身体IPV经历的显著相互作用,这一差距消失了。在女性中,有孩子与打妻子的正当性有关,而在男性中则没有。成年期暴露于IPV与男性殴打妻子的正当性相关,但与女性IPV的正当性呈负相关。对成年时期的资源和限制对对妇女的IPV态度的性别影响的进一步研究将澄清妇女比男子更频繁地报告对妇女的IPV是合理的。
Intimate partner violence (IPV) harms the health of women and their children. In Vietnam, 31% of women report lifetime exposure to physical IPV, and surprisingly, women justify physical IPV against wives more often than do men. We compare men’s and women’s rates of finding good reason for wife hitting and assess whether differences in childhood experiences and resources and constraints in adulthood account for observed differences. Probability samples of married men (N = 522) and women (N = 533) were surveyed in Vietnam. Ordered logit models assessed the proportional odds for women versus men of finding more “good reasons” to hit a wife (never, 1–3 situations, 4–6 situations). In all situations, women found good reason to hit a wife more often than did men. The unadjusted odds for women versus men of reporting more good reasons to hit a wife were 6.55 (95% CI 4.82 – 8.91). This gap disappeared in adjusted models that included significant interactions of gender with age, number of children ever born, and experience of physical IPV as an adult. Having children was associated with justifying wife hitting among women but not men. Exposure to IPV in adulthood was associated with justifying wife hitting among men but was negatively associated with justification of IPV among women. Further study of the gendered effects of resources and constraints in adulthood on attitudes about IPV against women will clarify women’s more frequent reporting than men’s that IPV against women is justified.
