Abstract

Latin American women, girls, and LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) individuals experience high rates of violence, making Latin America one of the world's most affected regions for gender-based violence. Television, a powerful socialization tool, shapes attitudes and influences behavior. This study analyzes 50 episodes from nine Spanish-language TV series set in Latin America, finding that 90% of episodes depict gender-based violence. However, few portray positive behavior modeling (e.g., victims seeking help) or include educational content. These findings underscore the need for research and interventions addressing how entertainment media shapes discourse around gender-based violence.

西班牙语电视连续剧中性别暴力的流行和描述。

拉丁美洲的妇女、女孩和LGBTQ+（女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性人和酷儿）个体遭受暴力的比例很高，使拉丁美洲成为世界上受性别暴力影响最严重的地区之一。电视作为一种强大的社会化工具，塑造了人们的态度并影响了人们的行为。本研究分析了9部以拉丁美洲为背景的西班牙语电视剧中的50集，发现90%的剧集描述了基于性别的暴力。然而，很少描绘积极的行为模式（例如，受害者寻求帮助）或包括教育内容。这些发现强调了研究和干预的必要性，以解决娱乐媒体如何塑造围绕性别暴力的话语。
