“…These findings corroborate with the study of Oliveira [13], which showed that the most victimized elderly were those who had a partner. In a way, this contradicted another study, which showed that the widowed and unmarried seniors were the main victims of violence [1,4].…”

“…16 The gradual increase in reports and studies of these cases of violence can be partly explained by a transformation in the elderly assistance policy, the statute of which indicates that it is a duty of all Brazilians to prevent the rights of the elderly from being threatened or violated. 28 The domestic environment is a suitable place to investigate violence against the elderly. The frequency of this violence and the factors associated with this phenomenon are essential in studies of this nature.…”

Objective: To estimate the prevalence of violence among the elderly and to analyze its association with demographic, socioeconomic and health conditions. Method: A cross sectional population-based study was conducted of 1,705 individuals aged 60 years or older living in the city of Florianópolis in the state of Santa Catarina, between 2009 to 2010. Verbal, psychological, physical and financial violence was evaluated with a questionnaire used in the Pesquisa Saúde Bem-estar e Envelhecimento (Health and Wellbeing in Aging Survey) (SABE). Prevalence was calculated for each type of violence and the overall prevalence of violence was identified using the categories of the explanatory variables. Logistic regression was used to identify the factors associated with violence. Results: The general prevalence of violence was approximately 13.0%, while verbal violence occurred among 11.0% of respondents. The adjusted analysis showed that being female (OR=2.08) and elderly persons who were single or divorced were 66% more likely to suffer violence. Those who lived with their children or grandchildren were twice as likely to suffer violence (95% CI: 1:40 to 3:40). Conclusions: Although the results showed that the prevalence of violence against the elderly was greater than predicted by the WHO, we suspect that this number may be even higher. Due to the complexity of the theme, it is possible that elderly persons are afraid to reveal that they are victims of violence, as in most cases, the aggressors are family members.Keywords: elderly; violence; domestic violence; abuse of the elderly; violence against the elderly; cross-sectional studies.http://dx
