“…Again, these data are similar to the fi ndings in the research by Mesquita (2010) and also by Labronici, Ferraz, Trigueiro and Fegadoli (2010) and by Madureira et al (2014), which indicated higher incidence levels of VAW in the adult phase.…”

“…Data on the age range are in line with the investigated references, which appoint that most of the aggressors are in the adult phase of life (Griebler & Borges, 2013;Madureira et al, 2014;Silva, Gomes, Acosta, Barlem, & Fonseca, 2013). In the 24 scenes, the aggressors' marital status was as follows: married (n = 13, 54%), single (n = 5, 21%) and having a fi xed partner (n = 6, 25%), similar to the results by Madureira et al (2014), found in non-movie contexts.…”

“…The family/home context was the most frequent in the violent scenes in the movies, representing 58% of the sample, similar to the fi ndings in research not focused on movies undertaken by Mesquita (2010) and Madureira et al (2014), who report that most violent episodes take place in the family context, which is the most private environment where the aggressors are most frequently located (partners, fathers, mothers and others), especially the partners. This reveals a perverse side of the family environment, historically constituted as a place of welcoming and safety, but which can turn into a space of confl ict and violence (Mesquita, 2010).…”

“…Nevertheless, the highlight in the movies that, in 37% of the violence cases, the aggressors have no affective bond with the victims, goes against the fi ndings demonstrated in other studies investigated (no movies). The study by Madureira et al (2014) is an example that reveals this contradiction. One example of a movie in which aggressors without any type of affective bond with the victims commit the violence is 678 (Diab, 2010), an Egyptian production about the aggressions women are victims of in different public environments, committed by unknown people.…”

The research objectives were analyze business / fi ctional fi lms about Violence Against Woman (VAW). The selection of fi lms was systematic and carried out in specialized sites on the subject (AdoroCinema, Cinepop etc.), across terms like "violence" and "woman" (N = 19). The analysis assumed three steps: observation of motion pictures; data entry observed in spreadsheets; simple frequency ratio concerning VAW scenarios with theoretical aspects pointed out by the literature (quantitative and qualitative approach). The aggressor were strangers (n = 11, 39%), husbands (n = 9, 33%), boyfriends (n = 4, 14%) and others (n = 4, 14%). There were performances of the following types of violence: psychological (n = 19, 27%), physical (n = 18, 25%), sexual (n = 16, 22%), moral (n = 12, 16%) and patrimonial (n = 7, 10%). The fi lmic representations showed general signs of psychological traumatization in characters (n = 17, 37%). The studied fi lms are illustrative of the reality of women in situations of violence; as such can be converted to amplifying teaching tool for discussion and refl ection on gender issues and on health promotion in the context of VAW.Keywords: Clinical psychology, gender violence, fi lms, intrafamily violence. Cinema e Violência Contra a Mulher: Contribuições à Formação do Psicólogo Clínico ResumoOs objetivos da pesquisa foram analisar fi lmes comerciais/fi ccionais sobre Violência Contra a Mulher (VCM), buscando caracterizar encenações desse fenômeno. A seleção dos fi lmes foi sistemática e realizada em sites especializados no assunto (AdoroCinema, Cinepop etc.), cruzando termos como "violência" e "mulher" (N = 19). A análise pressupôs três passos: observação das películas; lançamento de dados observados em planilhas; relação de frequências simples de encenações sobre VCM com aspectos teóricos apontados pela literatura especializada (enfoque quanti-qualitativo). Os agressores eram estranhos (n = 11, 39%), maridos (n = 9, 33%), namorados (n = 4, 14%) e outros (n = 4, 14%). Houve encenações de violência psicológica (n = 19, 27%), física (n = 18, 25%), sexual (n = 16, 22%), moral (n = 12, 16%) e patrimonial (n = 7, 10%). As representações fílmicas focaram indícios gerais de traumatização psíquica nas personagens (n = 17, 37%). Os fi lmes estudados são ilustrativos da realidade

It was verified that the aggressors were young men (36%), who lived in a fixed relationship with the victims (37.8%, p<0.001), being the husband or partner (53.4%, p<0.001). Physical (65%) and psychological violence (60.4%) were the most frequent. In view of the results, it is fundamental to elaborate coping strategies based on the aggressor's profile, which can help in the fight against gender inequalities, besides developing intervention measures that cooperate with prevention, health promotion and assistance to the women in situations of violence.
