Resumo
A violência na intimidade é caraterizada como um problema social e com consequências para
a saúde pública. As razões que levam as mulheres a perpetrarem a violência sob os seus (ex)
companheiros é um fenómeno pouco estudado e que ainda não teve a atenção merecida dentro
da comunidade científica. A literatura não é consensual no que respeita a esta temática. A
presente revisão sistemática, tem como objetivo compreender as razões pelas quais as mulheres
agridem os seus (ex) companheiros nas relações de intimidade e, por forma a estudar este
fenómeno, foi realizada uma pesquisa eletrónica em diferentes bases de dados com a equação
de pesquisa “Reasons OR motiv* AND female perpetration AND intimate partner violence”.
O tipo e o contexto de recolha da amostra – comunitário ou clínica/forense, parece influenciar
diretamente os resultados obtidos no que corresponde às razões para a violência. Os resultados
indicaram que nas amostras comunitárias a raiva foi a razão mais reportada, enquanto que nos
estudos com amostras clínicas/forenses a razão mais reportada foi a autodefesa. Considerando
a escassez de estudos, é necessário que se realizem mais estudos acerca desta temática, de forma
a contribuir para uma consciencialização na sociedade, para o aumento de conhecimento dos
profissionais, bem como para adoção de medidas mais adequadas em programas de prevenção
e intervenção.
Intimate violence is characterized as a social problem with consequences for public health. The reasons that lead women to perpetrate violence against their (ex)partners is a phenomenon that has been little studied and has not yet received the attention it deserves within the scientific community. The literature is not consensual with regard to this thematic. This systematic review aims to understand the reasons why womem attack their (ex) partners in intimate relationships and, in order to study the phenomenon, an electronic search was conduted in different databases with the equation of research “Reasons OR motiv * AND female perpetration AND intimate partner violence”. The type and sample collected - community or clinical/forensic, seems to directly influence the results obtained in terms of the reasons for the violence. The results indicated that in community samples, rage was the most reported reason, on the other hand, in studies with clinical/forensic samples the most reported reason was self-defense. Considering the scarcity of studies, it is necessary to carry out more studies on this theme in order to contribute to an awareness in society, to the increase of knowledge of professionals, as well as to the adoption of more appropriate measures in prevention and intervention programs. Keywords: intimate violence; reasons; women; female perpetrators.
