“…Prevalence figures range widely and are considered unreliable due to difficulties that women may have in reporting violence due to the higher rates of violence by carers and people known to them (Dowse et al, 2013; Mikton et al, 2014). However, it is generally agreed in the literature that in addition to the forms of violence experienced by all women, women with disabilities also face specific forms of violence and abuse related to their impairment (Ballan et al, 2017). This includes threats to withdraw care or enforce inappropriate care; controlling access to medication, mobility, and communication supports; financial abuse; and forced sterilization (Healey et al, 2008).…”

Women with disabilities experiencing violence can face challenges accessing domestic and family violence (DFV) services. Our research explored how these services understood and operationalized access for women with disabilities. In this article, we use Levesque, Harris, and Russell’s access framework to show how to be accessible to women with disabilities, and DFV services can widen the lens of access and accessibility to respond to women’s own priorities. These centered around appropriateness, approachability, and acceptability. Addressing these broader issues of access in policy and practice alongside disability-specific needs can better align what services offer and what women need.

“…Women with hearing disabilities experience higher rates of violence compared to normal women [20], yet limited research has focused on violence against women among this marginalised population. To our knowledge, this is the first study in SA that evaluated violence against women with hearing disabilities and its associated factors.…”

Background. Domestic violence (DV) against women seriously threatens global women's health and human rights. DV is a serious problem for females in general and has a higher incidence among women with disabilities.Objectives. This study aimed to explore the prevalence and associated factors of domestic violence (DV) against women with hearing disabilities in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Material and methods. A descriptive cross-sectional research design was utilised to recruit a convenience sample of all deaf and hard of hearing female participants (87) from Tabuk University, Al Amal centre for deaf females, and secondary schools that integrate hard of hearing female students in Tabuk city, KSA. An interview schedule was used for data collection; it comprised demographic data, the World Health Organization violence against women scale, the verbal violence scale and DV properties. Data analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for Social Science software, version 23 (SPSS Inc. Chicago, IL, USA). Results. The results indicated that more than one-third (36%) of participants with a hearing disability were exposed to moderate to severe forms of DV. Living in an urban area, unmarried women, having a university-educated mother and a monthly income of more than 10 000 SAR were negative predictors for exposure to violence (p < 0.001). On the other hand, complete deafness, having deceased parents and larger family size were positive predictors for exposure to violence (p < 0.001) based on binary logistic regression results. Conclusions. The prevalence of DV was moderate to high in more than one-third of the participating females with hearing disabilities in Tabuk city. Women living in an urban area, unmarried, having a university-educated mother and having high socio-economic status were at lower risk of experiencing DV. Thus, improving the economic status of deaf people and raising awareness of married women living in rural areas can be effective strategies to reduce DV against women with hearing disabilities.

Introducción: la violencia de pareja íntima contra la mujer es un problema de salud pública. Actualmente, existe un número importante de investigaciones sobre esta problemática. Objetivo: describir aspectos metodológicos, tipologías y variables estudiadas en investigaciones empíricas sobre violencia de pareja íntima contra la mujer. Método: se realizó una revisión sistemática, con búsquedaen WOS, Scopus y SciELo de publicaciones entre 2015 y 2019. De 762 artículos identificados, 178 cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión.Resultados: el diseño más utilizado fue el transversal, con análisis cuantitativo correlacional (73%); con muestras entre 100 y 500 participantes (31%) y principalmente desarrollados en Norteamérica (43%). Respecto a las variables, se estudian características individuales de la mujer, consecuencias físicas y mentales de la VPI, características de la relación de pareja y variables sociales que pueden incidir en VPI. la VPI fue caracterizada como Psicológica, física y sexual, con una nueva tipología denominada control coercitivo. Conclusiones: el uso de diseños transversales es comprensible por las implicancias éticos requeridos para esta población; las variables incluidas, incluyen un amplio espectro, tanto de posibles factores de riesgo como consecuencias de la violencia. El control coercitivo constituye un nuevo aspecto comprensivo hacia VPI.
