سکساری به عنوان یک پیش بینی کننده از قضاوت خشونت در یک زمینه چند فرهنگی

The aim of this research was to study the role of different forms of sexism as predictors of intimate partner violence, and also to explore possible differences in these variables as a function of the cultural context and sex. The sample was made up of 251 adults living in Spain, 28% of them were native and 72% immigrants (Latin America and Africa) of both sexes, aged 18 to 65. Eleven per cent of participants reported some form of intimate partner violence (physical, psychological, and sexual) and 9% of participants were cases of bidirectional violence whereas 2% were cases of unidirectional violence. In general, males and immigrants showed higher scores in different types of sexism, whereas women and natives showed lower scores. The results of the structural model showed that all the expressions of sexism analyzed explained intimate partner violence weakly (3%). Implications of this finding are discussed.
