摘要

导言:亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)仍然是一种严重侵犯人权的行为,也是 COVID-19 大流行期间一个重要的健康问题。本研究旨在估算 COVID-19 封锁前和封锁期间阿拉伯成年女性中 IPV 的比例,并确定其在封锁期间的可能预测因素:方法:2020 年 4 月至 6 月期间,我们使用在线问卷进行了一项横断面研究。样本包括 490 名 18 岁及以上与丈夫同住的成年阿拉伯妇女。数据收集使用了谷歌表格设计的问卷,其中包括社会人口特征、禁闭性质、在 COVID-19 禁闭前和禁闭期间接触不同类型 IPV 的情况及其发生频率。我们使用 McNemar 检验来确定封锁前和封锁期间接触 IPV 的差异,并进行逻辑回归分析来确定封锁期间接触 IPV 的预测因素:结果:半数女性表示曾遭受过 IPV,其中心理暴力排在第一位。与封锁前相比,在封锁期间遭受任何类型的 IPV 以及遭受心理、身体和性暴力的情况明显增加。遭受不同类型的 IPV 的频率从每月 1-3 次到几乎每天一次不等,但最常报告的是每月 1-3 次。在 COVID-19 封锁期间遭受 IPV 的预测因素包括居住国、家庭收入以及丈夫是否在封锁期间失业:结论:在 COVID-19 大流行封锁期间,阿拉伯国家的 IPV 有所增加,这与大流行对家庭造成的社会经济后果有关。必须采取行动提高专业人员和社区对这一问题的认识,及早发现并提供适当的服务。

Intimate partner violence among Arab women before and during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Intimate partner violence among Arab women before and during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Introduction: Intimate partner violence (IPV) remains a serious human rights violation and an important health concern during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The study aims to estimate the proportion of IPV among adult Arab women before and during the COVID-19 lockdown and to identify its possible predictors during the lockdown.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between April and June 2020 using an online questionnaire. The sample included 490 adult Arab women aged 18 years and above, who live with their husbands. Data was collected using a Google forms designed questionnaire that included the socio-demographic characteristics, nature of lockdown, and exposure to different types of IPV before and during COVID-19 lockdown and the frequency of their occurrence. McNemar's test was used to determine differences in the exposure to IPV before and during the lockdown, while logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the predictors of exposure to IPV during the lockdown.

Results: Half of women reported that they were ever exposed to IPV with psychological violence ranking 1st. Exposure to any type of IPV and exposure to psychological, physical, and sexual violence have significantly increased during the lockdown compared to before the lockdown. The frequency of exposure to the different types of IPV ranged from 1-3 times per month to almost every day, but the most commonly reported was 1-3 times per month. Predictors of exposure to IPV during the COVID-19 lockdown included country of residence, family income, and whether the husband lost his job during lockdown.

Conclusions: IPV has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in the Arab countries, and it was associated with the socioeconomic consequences of the pandemic on families. Actions towards raising awareness about the problem among professionals and the community, early detection, and provision of appropriate services are mandatory.
